There is no included build / convention that calls the ExampleTask itself. There is also no single task that has a

dependsOn

or similar on that particular task. But when running

gradle build

the task gets executed anyways. The gradle stacktrace itself does not provide any information, but the console output will occur.

where do you create/register the task? just defining a task class shouldn't do anything by itself.

And can you maybe share a build scan?

As mentioned the task is never registered at all. The task source is part of a included build and lies in the

src/main/kotlin/org/example

directory. Also the

src/main/kotlin

directory contains all conventions - and none of them is referencing the task at all
