TaskDependency

Create a task dependency

Changed on

Creates a directional dependency between two tasks. Requires task_id, dependent_task_id, and type_id (1 = Blocking, 2 = Waiting on, 3 = Linked).

A paired reverse record is created automatically (Blocking ↔ Waiting on; Linked is symmetric) — both share lifecycle, so type updates and deletes apply to both.
