Module tasks 

In-memory background-task tracker for the Synapse admin API.

Long-running admin actions (room deletion, history purge, bulk redaction) run detached on the runtime and are polled by their id or by the resource they act on. State is process-local: a restart drops history where Synapse persists it for seven days, which consumers tolerate (they poll right after issuing, and a post-restart miss reads as Synapse’s post-retention 404).
