I was able to reproduce the issue and made some changes in an attempt to fix it, such as using Provider<java.lang.Object>, but I couldn't resolve the ClassCastException. I'm considering adding a try-catch block and rethrowing the exception to inform users that they should use apply false in the root project.

try {
    testTaskSkipEventsServiceProvider.get().addExpectingTestTaskName(testTaskName)
} catch (e: ClassCastException) {
    throw IllegalStateException("""You should use `id("io.github.takahirom.roborazzi") version "[version]" apply false` in the root project to ensure the build cache property works correctly.""", e)
}

We can refer to this comment for more context:
bmuschko/gradle-docker-plugin#1123 (comment).
It seems we'll have to wait for a fix from Gradle. Therefore, the exception message could be structured as follows:

throw IllegalStateException("""You should use id("io.github.takahirom.roborazzi") version "[version]" apply false in the root project to ensure the build cache property functions correctly. This is a temporary workaround, and we are awaiting a permanent fix from the Gradle core.""", e)

If there are any workarounds that the Roborazzi plugin can offer, I would like to try them, so please let me know if there is anything I can do.
