MCP-Tasks is distinct from MCP Atlas in the Qwen3.6 comparisons. BenchLM keeps it separate until a fuller public benchmark specification is available because it appears to represent a different task protocol and score scale.

MCP-Tasks is currently displayed on BenchLM for reference, but it is excluded from the weighted scoring formula.
