NOOP task type: missing from TaskType enum and no builder function #136

Description

@nthmost-orkes

Summary

TaskType.NOOP is absent from the TaskType enum in src/open-api/types.ts. There
is no noopTask() builder function. Users cannot create a NOOP workflow task using
the SDK.

NOOP does appear as a string literal in the generated types.gen.ts
(workflowTaskType union) but is not promoted to the TaskType enum.

Server baseline

Conductor 3.32.0-rc.9

Evidence

Static: TaskType enum in types.ts ends at LIST_MCP_TOOLS; no NOOP entry.

Live (2026-07-16): A raw task with "type": "NOOP" was registered and executed
against Conductor OSS 3.32.0-rc.9. The workflow completed successfully — server supports NOOP
fully, the gap is SDK-only.

Proposed fix

Add to TaskType enum in src/open-api/types.ts:

NOOP = "NOOP",

Add builder src/sdk/builders/tasks/noop.ts:

import type { WorkflowTask } from "../../../open-api";
import { TaskType } from "../../../open-api";

export const noopTask = (
  taskReferenceName: string,
  optional?: boolean
): WorkflowTask => ({
  name: taskReferenceName,
  taskReferenceName,
  type: TaskType.NOOP,
  inputParameters: {},
  optional,
});

Export from builders/tasks/index.ts.
