+### Task-list facets

+`registerTaskListFacet({ id, label, getValues, subscribe? })` adds a choice to `/tasks` Sort and
+Group controls. `getValues({ taskId, workspaceId })` synchronously returns `{ value, label,
+color? }[]`; `subscribe` invalidates the loaded page. Return each value at most once for a task,
+and keep one label and color for a value across all tasks. Facet sorting uses the first value label
+after a case-insensitive alphabetical comparison. Facets are page-local: no facet selection is
+persisted or sent to the backend. The host catches callback errors and revokes registrations and
+active subscriptions when the owning plugin unloads. A task with multiple values appears in each
+matching group; a task without a value appears in the host's `Ungrouped` section. Parent/child
+indentation is preserved only within a group both tasks match, so a matching child without its
+parent is rendered at that group's root.

+Use `registerTaskListFacet` when a plugin owns values that users should sort or group on in the
+`/tasks` list. Values are synchronous and apply only to the currently loaded page. A facet is
+removed automatically when its plugin unloads; optional subscriptions let it refresh the page.
+Return each value at most once for a task. Keep the same label and color for a value across all
+tasks. Facet sorting uses the first value label after a case-insensitive alphabetical comparison.
+Tasks with multiple values appear in every matching group. A task without a value is shown in the
+host's `Ungrouped` section. A child whose parent does not match a group is rendered at that group's
+root.
+
+```js
+registry.registerTaskListFacet({
+  id: "tags",
+  label: "Tag",
+  getValues: ({ taskId, workspaceId }) => taskTags(taskId, workspaceId),
+  subscribe: (listener) => tagStore.subscribe(listener),
