Action

Why this helps
Infrastructure requests recorded in task notes can be overlooked after the task is marked done.
- Connect task completion to the requested infrastructure work.
- Reduce the chance that a backup request gets missed.
- Keep volume requirements in a clear instruction.

- 3Describe which completed tasks qualify and the volume name, size, filesystem, and region in one instruction.
- 4Pick Task Created or Completed as the trigger, then choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real task and review the run report.
