Problem:
Managing build task dependencies in Cake Frosting can become challenging as projects grow, especially when maintaining and modifying task chains later. While existing solutions (IsDependentOn/IsDependeeOf attributes and Cake.Graph) help visualize dependencies, they don't provide a clear, maintainable way to manage the task execution chain.

Example usage:
This approach significantly improves build script maintainability and readability, making it easier to modify task chains as projects evolve. The implementation requires minimal configuration and can be gradually adopted alongside existing task dependencies
