The command envoy run --pretend ${task_name} is used to simulate or preview the execution of a specific task using the Envoy task runner.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

• envoy: It is the name of the task runner program.
• run: It is a command of the envoy program used to execute a specific task.
• --pretend: It is an option or flag provided to the run command. In this case, it tells Envoy to simulate the task instead of actually executing it. This is useful when you want to see what tasks would be executed without actually performing any actions.
• ${task_name}: It is a placeholder representing the name of the specific task that you want to simulate or preview. This should be replaced with the actual name of the task you want to run.

By running this command, Envoy will display a summary of the actions that would be performed by the specified task, without actually executing them. This can help you verify the correctness of the task's configuration or make sure it behaves as expected before running it for real.
