Get a Devin answer when an Ably request arrives
Send a repository question to your Notis webhook and get Devin's codebase context without switching tools.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Ask question
Ask any question about a GitHub repository and get an AI-powered, context-grounded response. Args: repoName: GitHub repository or list of repositories (max 10) in owner/repo format question: The question to ask about the repository
Why this helps
Repository questions get lost between chat, agent tools and code review.
- Ask about code from an Ably-connected agent or client.
- Keep the question and repository context together.
- Reduce manual copy and paste between chat and repository research.
