Task extension conflicts with VS Code native "Tasks: Run Task" functionality #223

• Task version: 0.4.0
• Operating System: Ubuntu 24.04

If the extension is installed but disabled on launch, built in tasks work as expected ie Shift+Ctrl+P "> Tasks: Run Task" shows all tasks in tasks.json (and those added by extensions). The task selected via the command palette run as expected

If I then enable the extension, and repeat, tasks from tasks.json are shown (but others are missing). If I select a task in tasks.json from the command palette, I get an error "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'shell')" in a VSCode Notification

I can minimally reproduce this with VS Code running locally with no other extensions enabled and the following tasks.json file as the only file in the project (in the .vscode folder)

{
	"version": "2.0.0",
	"tasks": [
		{
			"type": "shell",
			"label": "echo test",
			"command": "echo",
			"args": ["test"],
			"group": "test",
		}
	]
}

Possible duplicate of #122
