Procedural video-language models must solve heterogeneous tasks from the same visual evidence, including action recognition, forecasting, and procedure prediction. Dense transformer decoders share the same feed-forward networks across tasks, which can entangle task behavior and make controlled capability expansion difficult. Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) decoders provide conditional computation, but token-level learned routing is not naturally aligned with task-level procedural objectives. We propose MoTE (Mixture of Task Experts), a decoder architecture that converts large language model feed-forward networks into task-specific experts while keeping the multimodal backbone shared. Each example follows one sample-level task route, so active task-expert computation remains independent of the number of stored task experts. We instantiate this design as VideoLLM-MoTE and evaluate it on five COIN benchmarks using explicit task routes. The five-expert model activates ~2B LLM parameters per sample and achieves higher average top-1 accuracy than recent VideoLLM baselines. Under the same expert topology, it improves over dense all-expert activation and learned sparse-routing controls. These results show that task-structured routing provides an interpretable and compute-efficient decoder alternative for multi-task video-language learning.
