Has anyone tried extending the flow and task decorators to add some common functionality across flows?

Things like common logging or task runners, or artifact creation

Just new decorator that implements storage and cache parameters based on the environment .

The problem is that flow and task decorators return the Flow and Task objects

Not following, I’m relatively new with python. Can you share an example?

```def stored_task(**k_args):
    """Decorator for standardized storage enabled tasks"""

    def decorator(fn):
        """Passes function"""

        @task
        def _inner(*inner_args, **inner_k_args):
            """Task decoration method"""
            return fn(*inner_args, **inner_k_args)

        return _inner.with_options(**k_args, **get_storage_parameters())

    return decorator```

ah if you are new to python, this might confuse you more.

That implementation returns a function where the @task decorator returns a Task object
