-Making fields required
+**BREAKING** - Marking optional fields as required in the `TaskBroker`, these can be fixed with a no-op `() => void` if you don't want to implement the functions.
+
+- `cancel`, `recoverTasks` and `retry` are the required methods on the `TaskBroker` interface.
+
+**NOTE**: If you're affected by this breaking change, please reach out to us in an issue as we're thinking about completely removing the `TaskBroker` extension point soon and would like to hear your use cases for the upcoming re-architecture of the `scaffolder-backend` plugin.

-Removing the deprecated types and interfaces, there's no replacement for these types, and hopefully not currently used as they offer no value with the plugin being on the new backend system and no way to consume them.
