What changed

The tasks manual located task.parallel in category "spending", but /settings shows it under Tasks as tasks at once (settings.go has Category: CategoryTasks, Label: "tasks at once"). Someone following the page searched the wrong section (#1454).

  • internal/manual/chat/tasks.md: the setting now reads "under Tasks as tasks at once", naming the section and the row exactly as drawn.
  • internal/manual/chat_test.go: two probes ("where is the tasks at once setting", "what section is task.parallel under") assert the question reaches the tasks page.

How it was checked

internal/manual does not fail on my Windows checkout only because of CRLF working-tree line endings (three unrelated character-count/blank-line tests), which the committed files (LF, confirmed via git ls-files --eol) and CI never see. So I verified on a clean LF checkout in a golang:1.26 Linux container:

  • The whole internal/manual suite passes with this change applied (git reset --hard + git apply the patch, then go test ./internal/manual/).
  • The three character-count tests that fail on my CRLF working tree pass on the LF checkout, confirming they are not related to this change.
  • TestTheChatManualAnswersTheQuestionsPeopleAsk (which runs the probe table) passes, so both new probes reach the tasks page.

Checklist

  • A change entry - docs/changes/unreleased/1886-tasks-at-once-manual-category.md.
  • The manual knows about it - this IS the manual fix; no slash command, key, tool, default, limit or refusal moved.
  • No new line in .github/known-red.txt.
  • Only my own paths are staged.

Closes #1454.

…gent-Field#1454)

The tasks page located task.parallel in category spending, but /settings
shows it under Tasks as 'tasks at once' (settings.go's CategoryTasks), so
someone following the page searched the wrong section. Name the section
and the row exactly as drawn, and add manual probes that reach the tasks
page for the setting.
The generic probes only asserted that some section on the tasks page was
returned, so restoring the former Spending wording left them green. Put the
issue's exact query vocabulary in the section heading and add a focused test
that finds that section, requires 'under Tasks as tasks at once', and rejects
the former category.

The test fails when the old wording is restored and passes with the correction.
