Shell command appearing in subdirectory

[clecap]

How would I achieve the following:

A shell command which task manager shows in the tree under a specific folder.

With npm the extension correctly sorts the tasks using the path property but with shell type tasks it does not.

Can you share an example?

When I have a package.json folder inside of /main/sub/subsub then in task manager this shows up correctly under /main/sub/subsub in the tree. However if I have a tasks.json file in the same directory where I use shell commands this is not recognized. It also does not help to place this file inside of a .vscodedirectory in /main/sub/subsub/.

Thus I cannot manage shell scripts inside of a tree hierarchy in the directories where they belong to. Ok, it does work if I use npm, but it does not work with normal shell script commands.

My current solution is to have all of the shell commands inside of a .vscodedirectory with a single tasks.json file inside of /main. The disadvantage of this workaround is that I do not keep the tasks in the directories where they would apply to.
