Here are some real examples:“Add a /health endpoint to the Express server in src/server.ts that returns { status: 'ok', uptime: process.uptime() }.”“The login form at src/components/LoginForm.tsx doesn’t show validation errors. Add inline error messages for empty email and invalid password format.”“Refactor the user service in src/services/user.ts to use the repository pattern like we do in src/services/order.ts.”
