Keep important Asana comments easy to find
Useful decisions often arrive in comments and then disappear into the activity stream. Let Notis give the discussion a focused page in Coda.
Trigger

Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Create a page

Why this helps
Important decisions and unanswered questions are buried in task comments and easy to miss later.
- Make decisions easier to revisit
- Keep open questions visible alongside the task context
- Spend less time rereading long comment threads

- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real comment and check that the summary reflects the discussion accurately.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis tell a decision from an open question?
You can ask it to identify both from the comment it receives. Review the result when a discussion is ambiguous.
Will the page include earlier comments?
Notis can only summarize comment history Asana returns with the event. If earlier context is needed, name that in the instruction and check the test run.
