Removes the coder-labs/tasks-docker template. Companion to coder/coder#28008, which deprecates Coder Tasks as of Coder v2.36 and hides it behind the internal CODER_ENABLE_AI_TASKS flag.

This template exists only to demo Coder Tasks: it declares coder_ai_task and reads data "coder_task". On a v2.36 deployment with default settings the Tasks UI, /tasks routes and Tasks API are unavailable, so the template has no working entry point. The equivalent example was removed from coder/coder in the same effort.

Changes

  • Delete registry/coder-labs/templates/tasks-docker/ (README.md, main.tf).
  • Delete registry/coder-labs/.images/tasks-screenshot.png, which only that README used.
  • Remove the references that pointed at the deleted path, so no link 404s:
    • .agents/skills/coder-templates/SKILL.md cited it as the reference task template.
    • registry/sharkymark/templates/docker-claude/README.md linked to its main.tf. Its dead coder.com/docs/ai-coder/tasks link is removed too, per review: that template does not declare coder_ai_task, so Tasks docs were the wrong reference for it regardless.

Effect

The template disappears from registry.coder.com. Anyone who already created a Coder template from it is unaffected; template versions live in their own deployment, not here.

Not in this PR

  • The remaining https://coder.com/docs/ai-coder/tasks links in .agents/skills/coder-templates/SKILL.md and in the claude-code, codex and kiro-cli READMEs. Those pages go away when feat!: hide Coder Tasks behind the enable-ai-tasks flag coder#28008 merges, but unlike the docker-claude link they sit next to real Tasks support in those modules, so choosing a replacement is a product call rather than a cleanup. Worth a separate sweep alongside wider Tasks guidance.
  • .icons/tasks.svg, kept in case anything external references it.

Validation

  • go build ./cmd/readmevalidation && ./readmevalidation: passes, all relative README URLs still valid.
  • bun x prettier --check .: passes.

…template

Coder Tasks is deprecated as of Coder v2.36 and is hidden by default, so
this template cannot be used on a default deployment. Remove the template,
its orphaned screenshot, and the two references that pointed at it.

Removed in 66e60dd. That page is deleted in coder/coder#28008, so there is nothing accurate to point it at for this template: docker-claude does not declare coder_ai_task, so Tasks docs were the wrong reference even before the deprecation. The remaining links in Resources cover the module and providers.

The same dead link still exists in .agents/skills/coder-templates/SKILL.md and in the claude-code, codex and kiro-cli module READMEs. I left those out because they are not just dead links: they document actual Tasks support in those modules, so deciding what replaces them is a product call rather than a cleanup. Happy to fold that into this PR if you would rather do it in one pass.

Done in 66e60dd: the link line and the leftover blank line are both gone, so ## Resources now starts at the module link.
