Get a consistent first estimate for requests
Describe what makes work small or large for you and get a repeatable first pass on new requests.
Trigger
New Email Received
Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox
Action
Execute Code
Execute python code in a sandbox and return any result, stdout, stderr, and error. use /home/user folder to write/read files. try to not use plt.show() as the code is executed remotely. use files for image/chart output instead.
Why this helps
Ad hoc effort estimates make it harder to decide what fits into your week.
- Use the same rubric for incoming requests
- See which factors influenced the estimate
- Identify requests that need clarification
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agent mail and Codeinterpreter once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and name it.
- 3Tell Notis your effort rubric and ask it to assess each new request with Python, explain the factors, and flag missing information.
- 4Choose Agent mail's New Email Received trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request and review the estimate.
Questions about this workflow
Does Notis know our team's capacity?
No. Include capacity or scheduling rules if you want them considered; otherwise the workflow estimates only from your supplied rubric.
Can it commit to a delivery date?
It can estimate from rules you provide, but a reliable date requires capacity, dependencies, and other planning details.

Create Sandbox
Create a sandbox to execute python code in a jupyter notebook cell. this is useful for agents to communicate, execute code, see output, read files, write files, etc. it's like you own personal computer, but in the cloud. use /home/user folder to write/read files.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
