Found as a pre-existing uncommitted change in the shared checkout during session close. It is a correct fix, so it is landed here rather than discarded.

commands/update-task.md instructed the agent to tick checkboxes via vault-cli task update. That command cannot tick a specific checkbox — it recomputes the derived status from checkbox counts (statusFromProgress, pkg/ops/update.go). Following the doc literally leaves boxes unticked.

Corrected to: direct edit of the - [ ] body line, then vault-cli task update to sync status. Frontmatter is still never edited directly — that part of the original instruction was right and is preserved.

Docs only, no code change.

The command doc told the agent to tick checkboxes via `vault-cli task update`,
which cannot tick a specific box — it recomputes the derived status from checkbox
counts (`statusFromProgress` in pkg/ops/update.go). Corrected to: direct body
edit of the `- [ ]` line, then `vault-cli task update` to sync status.

Frontmatter is still never edited directly.
