Description

Hello, I'm trying to find a way to manually start a task instead of relying on auto start from CommandLine/Application Runners... I have some complicated mechanism with tasks at work and I'm trying to push CRaC at the latest stage possible without starting a task (since the mechanism can actually choose the task that will be run at runtime), but I haven't found documentation yet on how they're started by Spring, nor was I able to figure it out from the source code...

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing documentation for CommandLine/Application Runners and the Spring task startup flow. Compare that documentation with the relevant source entry points to determine how tasks are started and whether manual startup is supported. Done means documenting the supported way to start a task manually, or clearly stating that it is not currently supported.
