Run flaky tasks locally?

[Owez]

Hi,

Is there a way to run flaky tasks locally? I get this popup on the cli:

But the link to https://nx.dev/ci/features/flaky-tasks seems to only advertise how to do it on Nx cloud. There should probably be docs on how it can be done locally, or why not if not. --verbose doesn't change the output.

Hm, can you be more specific about what you expect to be the behavior locally? I think there's something here. but let's discuss more before to get a clearer idea of the expected behavior.

As an end-user, I'd like details on the details of what the flaky task was.

In my case finding this message, this general alarm for a flaky task did help me eventually find a strange async bug (it was only failing my ci) – but in this case I had to manually comment out tests until I found which one was doing it. Took a few hours 😄

I'd like to see more insight into what test/task is flaky (even if its low-level it helps, like some stacktrace/thread id), and maybe a "hint:" message which could help me resolve it? Linking to the docs are fine too, if they have some detail about it all.
