TaskOperations are used by a TaskFactory to configure the behavior and create a PackerTask when it is generated on-demand for routines that use the "packer" to reorganize/mutate sidechains. The PackerTask controls which residues are packable, designable, or held fixed. When used by certain Movers (at present, the PackRotamersMover and its subclasses), the set of TaskOperations control what happens during packing, usually by restriction "masks."
The PackerTask can be thought of as an ice sculpture. By default, everything is able to pack AND design. By using TaskOperations, or your set of chisels, one can limit packing/design to only certain residues. As with ICE, once these residues are restricted, they generally cannot be turned back on.
There exist certain commonly-used TaskOperations that one usually should include when designing. For more information on these, please see the page on recommended TaskOperations for design.
This section defines instances of the TaskOperation class hierarchy when used in the context of the Parser/RosettaScripts. They become available in the DataMap.
Residue Level Task Operations are also available to control the packer at residue level.

In the rosetta code, the TaskOperation instances are registered with and then later created by a TaskOperationFactory. The factory calls parse_tag() on the base class virtual function, with no result by default. However, some TaskOperation classes (e.g. OperateOnCertainResidues and ReadResfile above) do implement parse_tag, and therefore their behavior can be configured using additional options in the "XML"/Tag definition.
ResidueSelectors are a flexible system for specifying particular set of residues in a pose. They can be used with the OperateOnResidueSubset TaskOperation to control packing behavior, or can be used with other movers and filters.
