Allow pinning of commands in Run recent command quickpick #154388

Closed

Description

During the release party, someone requested being able to pin commands that you might run frequently to the top of the Terminal: run recent command quick-pick.

Another person suggested it would be helpful if doing so stored that command in user/workspace configuration for reuse.

Combining these ideas, we are thinking that pinning would create a user task, move the entry to the top in a new category favorite commands, and a gear button would appear next to the entry in the quick-pick allowing it to be configured or removed.

@Tyriar have discussed it and think this feature would help people to discover and configure tasks more easily, something I have cited is a problem even for me #152657

We would likely introduce a new task type such as savedCommand that would align in most ways with how type:shell is currently handled, but with a smaller set of supported properties initially.
