What is a task?
A task is one unit of work the team executes — write a blog post, ship a landing page, research a competitor, cut a video. It has one owner, one deliverable, and a visible state from start to done.
How is a task different from casual chat?
Saying "hey what do you think of X?" is just chat. Saying "write a 500-word announcement and post it" is a task — Astra creates a task card, briefs the right team member, and executes. You don't need to label it; Astra decides when something deserves a task.
Can one request be multiple tasks?
Yes. If you say "make a landing page and three ads," Astra splits them so each can be reviewed and shipped independently. Each task has its own card, thread, and cost.
