The task runner is a welcome addition. It will be a lot like node, except hopefully more Deno devs than node devs will have the good sense to put complex things into a separate program. The permission system will also help make sure a task is only doing what it needs to do. For instance, https://nextjs.org/telemetry https://nextjs.org/telemetry tracks calls to each command, including build.
