VictorandClaude Opus 5.5 a3adaca19e G1: Image Trace, Crop Image and Expand in the Contextual Task Bar ...

As in the reference app's Contextual Task Bar, which offers "options like
Image Trace, Retype, and Crop Image" for images and lets you "quickly
expand traced artwork from the bar" (public announcement:
https://community.adobe.com/announcements-651/contextual-task-bar-in-illustrator-2025-quick-actions-when-you-need-them-1546580):

- One image selected: Image Trace traces it at once with the Default
  preset, leaving the Image Trace panel as it was (like the quick trace
  from Properties and the Control bar); Crop Image shows the crop box.
  Offset Path and Simplify, which don't apply to an image, are gone.
- One Image Trace object selected: Expand keeps only the traced paths,
  in place of Ungroup and Isolate.

Retype isn't offered: the app doesn't have it.
