Description

when the tasks.json file gets edited (for example a task is marked "in-progress") even if you hit the refresh icon in the kanaban, often it's not updated properly.

If i click on the task the status is proper, but it just not reflected as it changes on the kanaban view.

Also when subtasks are created, often you see those in the main task detail, but as you click on the subtask it says not found (but on the json the subtask is there).

Steps to Reproduce

open the kanaban
edit the tasks or expand with task-master cli
refresh the kanaban

Expected Behavior

The status of the task should change

Actual Behavior

The status is still the previous one

Environment

Task Master version: 0.26
Node.js version: 22.19.0
Operating system: MAC 26.0
IDE (if applicable): Cursor
