Abort or edit a quest

Editing a Quest

In some scenarios you may want to change the value of a reward after a Quest has already started (i.e. after the Quest has originally been 'stashed').

This can be achieved using the restash command in the target Issue, specifying a new reward_value to provide an updated value for the Quest:

@quest-bot restash {reward_value}

If this is successful you will see a message like:

The loot on Quest #{issue_number} has been restashed by @{organisation}.

💰 The loot available is now ${new_reward_value}.

Aborting a Quest

In some situations, you might want to abort a Quest. This action is not recommended if some time have passed since the start of the quest because if a Quest has already started, the work of some developers may go unrewarded.

To abort a Quest call the abort command on the Issue where the Quest was initialised. The Issue number #{issue_number} must be included for added security:

@quest-bot abort #{issue_number}

A confirmation message like this will appear in the Issue. Developers who have called embark on the Quest will be notified:

Swords down 🗡

Quest on issue #{issue_number} has been aborted by @{organisation}

...

Quests can also be aborted directly from the Admin Dashboard using the Manage Quest menu on the appropriate Quest page, or by simply closing the issue on Github.
