Get source-backed answers to task comments
Turn a documentation question in Asana into an answer grounded in current library docs.
Trigger
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Query-docs
Retrieves and queries up-to-date documentation and code examples from Context7 for any programming library or framework. You must call 'resolve-library-id' first to obtain the exact Context7-compatible library ID required to use this tool, UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best information you have.
Why this helps
Questions buried in task comments can trigger a distracting search and leave teammates waiting for an answer.
- Retrieve documentation and examples relevant to the comment's question.
- Keep the research connected to the task discussion.
- Make version constraints visible when the commenter supplies them.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Context7 MCP once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify the library and question in each comment, resolve the library ID first, then query Context7 docs for a concise answer and source-backed examples.
- 4Pick the Asana New Comment on Task trigger for the relevant project.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real comment that includes a library and question.
Questions about this workflow
Does the automation know which version I use?
Only if the comment or other available task context states the version. Ask Notis to call out a missing version when the answer depends on it.
Why resolve the library first?
Context7 query-docs requires a compatible library ID. The automation should resolve the name before querying documentation.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Asana to Context7 MCP. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Query-docs
Retrieves and queries up-to-date documentation and code examples from Context7 for any programming library or framework. You must call 'resolve-library-id' first to obtain the exact Context7-compatible library ID required to use this tool, UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best information you have.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Resolve-library-id
Resolves a package/product name to a Context7-compatible library ID and returns matching libraries. You MUST call this function before 'query-docs' to obtain a valid Context7-compatible library ID UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. Selection Process: 1. Analyze the query to understand what library/package the user is looking for 2. Return the most relevant match based on: - Name similarity to the query (exact matches prioritized) - Description relevance to the query's intent - Documentation coverage (prioritize libraries with higher Code Snippet counts) - Source reputation (consider libraries with High or Medium reputation more authoritative) - Benchmark Score: Quality indicator (100 is the highest score) Response Format: - Return the selected library ID in a clearly marked section - Provide a brief explanation for why this library was chosen - If multiple good matches exist, acknowledge this but proceed with the most relevant one - If no good matches exist, clearly state this and suggest query refinements For ambiguous queries, request clarification before proceeding with a best-guess match. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best result you have.
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
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.
