Spot underspecified tasks as they arrive
Before an unclear task creates back-and-forth, have Notis check whether its description says what done looks like.
Trigger
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Action
Execute Code
Execute python code in a sandbox and return any result, stdout, stderr, and error. use /home/user folder to write/read files. try to not use plt.show() as the code is executed remotely. use files for image/chart output instead.
Why this helps
Tasks without a clear finish line are easy to misread and difficult to hand off.
- Catch missing success criteria early
- Get a short list of details to clarify
- Make delegation easier to follow
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Codeinterpreter once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to inspect each new task's available details for a stated outcome, completion criteria, and unanswered questions.
- 4Pick the Asana New Task Created trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real task and refine what counts as sufficiently clear.
Questions about this workflow
Can it decide whether a task is ready for a teammate?
It can report clarity signals from the task details, but readiness depends on criteria you supply in the instruction.
Does it add acceptance criteria to Asana?
No. This workflow runs code and returns a review; it does not edit the Asana task.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Asana to Codeinterpreter. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Asana triggers
Codeinterpreter actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Sandbox
Create a sandbox to execute python code in a jupyter notebook cell. this is useful for agents to communicate, execute code, see output, read files, write files, etc. it's like you own personal computer, but in the cloud. use /home/user folder to write/read files.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Execute Code
Execute python code in a sandbox and return any result, stdout, stderr, and error. use /home/user folder to write/read files. try to not use plt.show() as the code is executed remotely. use files for image/chart output instead.
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
Get File
Get a file from the sandbox and returns the file. the files should be read from /home/user folder.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Run Terminal Command
Run a command in the terminal and returns the stdout, stderr, and error code. use /home/user folder to write/read files.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Upload File
Upload a file to the sandbox environment. the files should be uploaded to the /home/user folder.
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Tag Added to Task
Triggers when a tag is added to a task. Note: Asana's event structure is inverted for tag events — the resource is the task and the parent is the tag. So parent.gid gives the tag GID.
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
