As I said, it won't/can't work for me.

Assume I have a project with two tasks, A and B.  Assume that the
project consists of many files, among others: main.js, utils.js,
main.css.  Assume that task A involves editing files main.js and
main.css and task B - files main.js and utils.js.

Assuming I'm editing main.js, how can an automatic system (short of an
advanced AI) guess whether to clock A or B?

I found that it is way easier to train myself to clock in (it helps to
have a nice keybinding for that - F10 F10 for clocking in the last task,
F10 i for a classical clock history and F10 c for Counsel-based clock
history.

The same with me - that's precisely the point.  This nuke is called
`org-clock-in'. ;-)

Best,
