Revolte Starter Tasks
Not sure what to try first? Pick a concrete outcome and adapt the wording to your repository. Every example is intentionally small enough to produce a result you can inspect and learn from.
★ Marked tasks are the safest first run—small, visual, and easy to verify.
Feature development · greenfield Build a contained user-facing capability.
Add a contact form to a website
“Add a contact form to this application. Users should be able to enter name, email, and message. Create the UI, add validation, handle form submission, and show success and error messages.”
Small UI + simple logic
Add dark mode support
“Add dark mode support to this application. Users should be able to switch between light and dark themes. Follow the existing styling approach and ensure all pages work correctly.”
Limited files + visual result
Create a simple task tracker
“Build a simple task management feature. Users should be able to create, view, complete, and delete tasks. Add the required UI and data handling following existing application patterns.”
Classic CRUD flow
Add search functionality
“Add search functionality to the product list page. Users should be able to search products by name and see filtered results instantly.”
Simple frontend interaction
Debugging Investigate a reproducible symptom and verify the fix.
Fix incorrect form validation
“Review the signup form and fix the issue where invalid email addresses are accepted. Identify the cause, implement the fix, and add a test case.”
Small bug + regression test
Fix broken button behavior
“Investigate why the submit button on the checkout page is not working. Find the root cause, fix it, and verify the user flow works correctly.”
Focused investigation
Testing Add useful coverage around an existing behavior.
Add tests for the login flow
“Add test coverage for the login functionality. Cover successful login, invalid credentials, and validation errors. Follow the existing test conventions.”
Small end-to-end behavior set
Generate tests for a component
“Review the user profile component and create tests covering rendering, user interaction, and error scenarios. Follow the patterns used by nearby component tests.”
Contained component coverage
Documentation Turn code and behavior into something teammates can use.
Explain application structure
“Analyze this repository and create a concise overview of the main folders, important components, and how the application works. Link each explanation to the relevant path.”
Analysis-first + low-risk
Document an API endpoint
“Document this user API endpoint, including its request and response formats, authentication requirements, error behavior, and one realistic example.”
Small documentation task
Refactoring, API, and DevOps Choose a bounded improvement with a clear verification path.
Simplify a complex component
“Review this component and improve readability by simplifying its logic and removing duplication. Preserve current behavior, follow existing coding patterns, and keep all tests passing.”
Limited code change
Create a simple user API
“Create API endpoints to create and retrieve users. Follow the repository’s existing routing and response conventions, add input validation and error handling, and include tests.”
Small backend workflow
Improve environment configuration
“Review this application’s environment variable handling. Clearly define required settings, validate them at startup, preserve existing deployment behavior, and update the setup documentation.”
Contained operational improvement
