Description

CS creates child tasks dynamically in several command functions:
--CS_RecomputeBaselineCfeCoreCmd
--CS_RecomputeBaselineOSCmd
--CS_OneShotCmd

Is there any risk of cleanup issues if these commands are run too frequently? CS could be modified to create the child tasks just once and then kick them off when a command is received (perhaps using a semaphore mechanism like FM).

Research direction

Start by locating CS_RecomputeBaselineCfeCoreCmd, CS_RecomputeBaselineOSCmd, and CS_OneShotCmd, then inspect how each creates and cleans up child tasks. Determine whether frequent command execution can leave cleanup problems and document the expected task lifecycle. Done means the risk is resolved with tests or clearly documented findings.
