Grunt compass dev and prod

Question

I have an issue with GruntJS + SASS Compass. I've setup dev and prod configs. For dev css has outputStyle: 'expanded', for prod has outputStyle: 'compressed'. When I'm doing prod - it works like a charm. In console I see

Running "compass:dist" (compass) task
overwrite css/screen.css (0.392s)
Compilation took 0.4s

css compressed like it should be.

But when I'm doing devit shows in console nothing

Running "compass:dev" (compass) task

Running "autoprefixer:dist" (autoprefixer) task

And css still compressed.

There is my Gruntfile.js config:

module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
    pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),

    compass: {
        dev: {
            options: {
                sassDir: 'sass',
                cssDir: 'css',
                imagesDir: 'images',
                fontsDir: 'fonts',
                relativeAssets: true,
                boring: true,
                outputStyle: 'expanded',
                environment: 'development',
                raw: 'preferred_syntax = :sass\n'
            }
        },
        dist: {
            options: {
                sassDir: 'sass',
                cssDir: 'css',
                imagesDir: 'images',
                fontsDir: 'fonts',
                relativeAssets: true,
                boring: true,
                force: true,
                bundleExec: true,
                outputStyle: 'compressed',

                raw: 'preferred_syntax = :sass\n'
            }
        }
    },

    autoprefixer: {
        dist:{
            files:{

What I'm doing wrong?

You could make two different compass dev's.

compass: {
   dev: {
     ...
     force: true
     ...
   },
   devWatch: {
   ... ur original ... 
   }
}

watch(compass: {tasks: ['compass:devWatch', ...]})

grunt.registerTask('watch', [
   'compass:dev',
   'watch'
]);

grunt.registerTask('dev', [
   'compass:dev'
]);
