+/// `GET /api/bash-tasks` — snapshot of this agent's in-flight bash tasks.

+/// The `hive-bash-mcp` daemon runs in this same container and writes one
+/// `<id>.json` ([`hive_sh4re::TaskFile`]) per task under the harness
+/// `bash-tasks/` dir. This reads that dir and returns the tasks still
+/// `Pending` or `Running`, so the agent page can show what's running without
+/// going through the broker. Snapshot only — the page polls/refreshes it like
+/// `/api/loose-ends`; there's no live SSE push for task state yet. Unreadable
+/// or malformed files (incl. the daemon's `.json.tmp` scratch writes, which
+/// don't match the `.json` extension) are skipped so one stray file can't
+/// fail the whole list.
