Mission Board

The Mission Board is the community feature-request board on Rival. It’s where people post tools/agents they wish existed, upvote requests they like, and where builders go to find their next project.

Find it at cortexone.rival.io/mission-board.

What it is

Not every useful tool exists yet. The Mission Board makes that gap visible: anyone can post a request, anyone can upvote, and any builder can claim a mission and ship it.

Each request - called a mission - describes a tool the community wants. Once a mission is claimed and built, the resulting tool is published to the Marketplace, where everyone who upvoted (and everyone else) can run it.

The four tabs

The Mission Board is organized into four tabs:

  • Most Requested - missions sorted by upvote count. Where to find what the community wants most.
  • Recently Added - the newest missions posted. Good for builders looking for fresh ideas.
  • Low Lift / High Demand - missions tagged as low or medium complexity that also have strong upvote counts. The sweet spot for a quick, impactful build.
  • Recently Shipped - missions that have been built and published. A running record of what the board has produced.

What’s on a mission card

Every mission card shows:

  • Title - a short summary of the request
  • Description - what the tool should do, who’d use it, why it’s useful
  • Kind - whether the requester wants an agent or a function
  • Complexity - the requester’s estimate: light, medium, or heavy
  • Status - open (available to claim) or shipped (already built)
  • Upvote count - how many people are backing the request

What you can do

There are two main actions on a mission:

Upvote - signals that you’d use this tool if it existed. Upvotes drive the Most Requested and Low Lift / High Demand rankings, so they directly influence what builders prioritize.

Claim Mission - once claimed, you can start building the tool/agent that mission requires, and once done, you can submit it.

You don’t have to be the original requester to upvote, and you don’t have to upvote to claim. Builders often claim missions they didn’t post themselves.

How shipping works

The full lifecycle of a mission:

  1. Posted - someone creates the mission with a title, description, kind, and complexity estimate.
  2. Upvoted - the community shows interest.
  3. Claimed - a builder claims the mission and starts work.
  4. Built - the builder uses the standard tool or agent creation flow to build it. See Creating a tool.
  5. Marked Shipped - once published, the mission is flipped to shipped and linked to the resulting Marketplace listing.
  6. Published to Marketplace - the new tool appears on the Marketplace, where anyone (including the original requester) can run it.

When to use the Mission Board

  • You have an idea for a tool but don’t want to build it - post a mission.
  • You see a gap and want to build but don’t know what to build - browse Low Lift / High Demand.
  • You want a tool that doesn’t exist yet - upvote or post.
  • You’re picking your next project - check Most Upvoted.
  • You want to see what the community has built lately - Recently Shipped.
