Find repository documentation from an email request
When someone asks where the project is documented, have Devin read the repository wiki so you can focus on the answer, not the hunt.
Trigger
New Email Received
Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox
Action
Read wiki contents
View documentation about a GitHub repository. Args: repoName: GitHub repository in owner/repo format (e.g. "facebook/react")
Why this helps
Documentation requests can trigger a slow detour through repositories and wiki pages before you can reply.
- Reduces time spent locating repository documentation.
- Creates a documentation summary starting point for your reply.
- Helps keep documentation requests from getting buried.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agent mail and Devin MCP once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to recognize emails asking about repository documentation and use Devin to read the wiki for the repository identified in the message.
- 4Pick New Email Received as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real email requesting documentation for a repository with a wiki.
