Cloud workspace lifecycle

A cloud workspace can reconnect after the page or terminal view closes, while the task remains the durable record of what ran.

Steps

Sign in and reopen the task from Tasks.
Wait for its managed workspace to become available before sending file or terminal work.
Reopen the Terminal tab; a stable tab reconnects to its existing shell and available scrollback.
Verify important output in Files and download a copy before any destructive cleanup.

The resumed task points to its cloud files and terminal context instead of creating an unrelated workspace.

Note: Treat downloaded or committed output as the recovery boundary for irreplaceable work; a browser tab alone is not a backup.
