Bring agent capacity into the release handoff
At release time, the next question is often whether build infrastructure is ready. Put a current agent check next to the Asana handoff.
Trigger
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Action
List Pipeline Agents
Tool to list connected agents for an organization. use after confirming the organization slug. supports optional filtering and pagination.
Why this helps
Release handoffs lose time when the team has to open another tool just to check whether any agents are connected.
- Add an agent check at a meaningful project milestone.
- Keep the handoff focused on readiness.
- Make missing connected agents visible sooner.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Buildkite once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the release handoff.
- 3Tell Notis: When a task moves to my release-ready section, check connected agents for my confirmed Buildkite organization and report the result.
- 4Choose Task Moved to Section as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real task moved into that section and confirm the organization slug.
Questions about this workflow
Can this verify that a specific pipeline will pass?
No. The listed action checks connected agents, not pipeline status or build outcomes.
Can I use another section name?
Yes. Name the section in your instruction. The trigger itself is selected in Notis; you do not build filters.
