Why this helps
As feedback evolves, board categories may stop reflecting the kinds of requests the team needs to route.
- Review categories on a selected board.
- Compare them with rules you provide for feedback routing.
- Report mismatches without inventing new board structure.

Questions about this workflow
Does this action change categories?
No. It retrieves categories for a board so Notis can review and report on them.
Can Notis know our routing rules automatically?
Provide the rules in your instruction. Notis should not infer rules that are not available.
