+<title>Missing default template arguments for <code>task</code></title>

+<p>
+The design discussion of <code>task</code> describes defaults for
+the two template parameters <code>T</code> and <code>Environment</code>
+of <code>task</code> but these defaults are not reflected in the
+synopsis of <sref ref="[task.class]"/>.
+This is an oversight and should be fixed.  The default for
+<code>T</code> should be <code>void</code> and the default for
+<code>Environment</code> should be <code>env&lt;&gt;</code> (the
+design paper used <code>empty_env</code> but this <code>struct</code>
+was replaced by the class template <code>env</code> by <paper num="p3325r5"/>).
+</p>
+<p>
+There could be a counter argument to defining a default for the
+<code>Environment</code> template parameter: this type is used to
+determine various customizations of <code>task</code>, e.g., the
+<code>allocator_type</code>, the <code>scheduler_type</code>, and
+the <code>stop_source_type</code>. Leaving the type a required
+argument means that a future standard could choose a possibly better
+default than the types determined when the <code>Environment</code>
+doesn't define them. On the other hand, a future standard could
+provide a suitable alias with modified types under a different
+name and/or a different namespace. Based on the LEWG discussion
+on 2025-08-26 the direction is to add the default arguments.

+<resolution>
+<p>
+Add default template arguments for <code>task</code> for
+<code>T = void</code> and <code>Environment = env&lt;&gt;</code>
+in the synopsis of <sref ref="[task.class]"/>:
+<blockquote><pre>
+namespace std::execution {
+  template&lt;class T <ins>= void</ins>, class Environment <ins>= env&lt;&gt;</ins>&gt;
+  class task {
+     ...
+  };
+}
+</pre></blockquote>
