Core Plugins and tasks SetVariables
Set execution-scoped variables.
Renders a map and merges it into the execution variables, making them available via {{ vars.* }}. By default, existing keys are overwritten; set overwrite to false to fail when a key already exists.
Deep merges preserve nested maps rather than replacing them entirely.
