Questions about this workflow
Does this run automatically when I add an Are.na block?
Are.na trigger events are not available here. This workflow starts when its Notis webhook receives an HTTP request.
Can the brief include every old block?
Tell Notis what time range or recent items to review. If that context is unavailable, provide the intended scope in your instruction.
