Run branch specific CircleCI checks after an AgentQL signal

When a branch needs a closer check, pass the project and branch context into CircleCI to start the right pipeline without a manual search.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Trigger Pipeline

Starts a new CI/CD pipeline run for a project.

Why this helps

A branch concern can lose momentum while someone tracks down the project and starts its pipeline manually.

  • Start the relevant branch's existing CircleCI pipeline.
  • Reduce the wait between branch observation and validation.
  • Keep branch context attached to the handoff.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AgentQL and CircleCI once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
  • 3Describe which AgentQL check should trigger a CircleCI pipeline for the relevant project and branch.
  • 4Choose a Notis webhook as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real branch check and confirm the intended pipeline starts.
