fix(task): resolve global tasks when running from monorepo root by jdx · Pull Request #8192 · jdx/mise

jdx · 2026-02-16T21:53:36Z

Summary

When running a bare task name (e.g., mise run hello) from within a monorepo, the name gets auto-expanded to monorepo syntax (//:hello). Global tasks defined in ~/.config/mise/config.toml don't have the // prefix, so the matching logic failed to find them.
Fix by falling back to the original bare task name when the monorepo-expanded pattern yields no results.

Test plan

New e2e test test_task_monorepo_global_tasks verifies global tasks can be run from monorepo root
Existing monorepo tests pass (config_roots, wildcards, syntax, name_conflicts, run_project_tasks)

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Note

Low Risk
Small, localized change to task name resolution with a clear fallback path and added e2e coverage; minimal impact beyond monorepo/global task matching edge cases.

Overview
Bare task names run from a monorepo root now fall back to matching the original (non-monorepo) name when :task/monorepo expansion yields no matches, restoring access to global tasks from within monorepo contexts.

Adds an e2e regression test covering global task execution, root and subproject task execution, task listing visibility, and ensuring explicit :task syntax does not incorrectly resolve to global tasks.

Summary of Changes

Hello @jdx, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request resolves an issue where global tasks defined in ~/.config/mise/config.toml could not be executed from within a monorepo root. Previously, mise would auto-expand bare task names into monorepo-specific syntax, preventing it from finding globally defined tasks. The change introduces a fallback mechanism to re-attempt task resolution using the original, unexpanded task name if the monorepo-expanded lookup fails, thereby restoring expected behavior for global tasks in monorepo environments.

Highlights

Monorepo Task Resolution: Implemented a fallback mechanism to correctly resolve global tasks when invoked from a monorepo root, addressing an issue where task names were incorrectly auto-expanded.
New E2E Test: Added a dedicated end-to-end test (test_task_monorepo_global_tasks) to verify the fix and ensure global tasks can be run from within a monorepo context.

Changelog

e2e/tasks/test_task_monorepo_global_tasks
- Added a new e2e test to verify global tasks can be run from a monorepo root.
src/task/task_list.rs
- Introduced logic to store the original task name before monorepo expansion.
- Implemented a fallback to search for tasks using the original bare name if the monorepo-expanded name yields no results.

Activity

A new end-to-end test (test_task_monorepo_global_tasks) was added to validate the fix for global tasks in monorepos.
Existing monorepo-related tests (config_roots, wildcards, syntax, name_conflicts, run_project_tasks) were confirmed to pass.

Code Review

This pull request effectively addresses an issue where global tasks were not being resolved correctly within a monorepo context. The fix, which involves a fallback mechanism to the original task name, is sound and well-implemented. The addition of a new end-to-end test in e2e/tasks/test_task_monorepo_global_tasks is excellent, as it thoroughly validates the fix and protects against potential regressions. I have one minor suggestion in src/task/task_list.rs to improve code conciseness and efficiency.

src/task/task_list.rs

+            cur_tasks = tasks_with_aliases
+                .get_matching(&original_name)?
+                .into_iter()
+                .cloned()
+                .collect_vec();


To make the code more efficient and concise, you can use extend to add the fallback tasks to the cur_tasks vector directly. This avoids creating a new intermediate vector with collect_vec() and then reassigning, which is slightly more performant.

cur_tasks.extend( tasks_with_aliases .get_matching(&original_name)? .into_iter() .cloned(), );

Pull request overview

This PR fixes an issue where global tasks cannot be run from a monorepo root using bare task names. When a bare task name (e.g., hello) is run from a monorepo root, it gets auto-expanded to monorepo syntax (//:hello). However, global tasks defined in ~/.config/mise/config.toml don't have the // prefix, so the matching logic fails to find them. The fix adds a fallback mechanism that tries the original bare name when the expanded name yields no results.

Changes:

Modified task resolution logic to save the original task name before expansion and fall back to it when no monorepo task is found
Added comprehensive e2e test to verify global tasks work from monorepo root

            .collect_vec();
+        // If the task name was auto-expanded to monorepo syntax (e.g., "hello" -> "//:hello")
+        // but no monorepo task matched, fall back to the original bare name to find global tasks
+        if cur_tasks.is_empty() && t != original_name && !original_name.starts_with("//") {


The fallback condition should also exclude original names that start with ':' (colon syntax). If a user explicitly uses colon syntax like ':task', it should not fall back to the bare name ':task' after expansion fails. The condition should be: !original_name.starts_with("//") && !original_name.starts_with(":")

Suggested change

if cur_tasks.is_empty() && t != original_name && !original_name.starts_with("//") {

if cur_tasks.is_empty()

+# Test 4: Global task visible in task list
+echo "=== Test 4: Global task visible in task list ==="
+assert_contains "mise tasks --all" "hello"
+


Consider adding a test case to verify that explicit colon syntax (e.g., mise run :hello) does not fall back to global tasks. This would help ensure that the fix for the fallback condition properly excludes colon patterns. The test should verify that :hello fails if no monorepo task exists, even if a global task named hello exists.

Suggested change

# Test 5: Explicit colon syntax should not fall back to global tasks

echo "=== Test 5: Explicit colon syntax does not fall back to global tasks ==="

if mise run :hello >/tmp/mise_test_colon_hello.out 2>&1; then

echo "ERROR: 'mise run :hello' succeeded but should have failed when no monorepo task exists"

exit 1

fi

When a bare task name like `hello` is run from within a monorepo, it gets auto-expanded to monorepo syntax (`//:hello`). Global tasks defined in `~/.config/mise/config.toml` don't have the `//` prefix, so the matching logic fails to find them. Fix by falling back to the original bare task name when the monorepo-expanded pattern yields no results. Fixes #6564 (reply in thread) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
