So if task A takes about an hour. Wouldn't you want the pipeline to wait
until it completes? That way you know the status of the task isn't? We also
use GoCD as a workflow scheduler and realised over the years that waiting
for the task makes sure we get both history (runtime graph, success
/failure etc.) and better visibility from GoCD for free.

Do you think something like this would work? If yes, given your agents are
mostly going to be idle you can increase the number of agents to
accommodate other pipelines as needed or tie them to a specific resource /
environment so you just reuse a small section of them for these long
waiting tasks.
