@Marvin in controlflow what is the difference between

cf.task

and

cf.run

In ControlFlow,

cf.task

and

cf.run

serve different purposes: -

cf.task

: This is a decorator used to define tasks in a structured way. Tasks are the fundamental building blocks of AI workflows in ControlFlow, representing discrete, well-defined objectives. They are checkpoints where you can validate outputs to ensure alignment with application requirements. Using the

@task

decorator is less common and less flexible than using the Task class directly, but it allows you to create tasks by decorating functions. -

cf.run

: This function is used to create and run a task in a single step. It simplifies the process by combining task creation and execution, accepting the same arguments as creating a Task directly. It's a more straightforward approach for executing tasks quickly. For more detailed insights, you can refer to the ControlFlow tasks documentation and the quickstart guide.
