Get repository answers where the question appears
When a teammate asks how the code works, bring a grounded repository answer into the task conversation.
Trigger
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Ask question
Ask any question about a GitHub repository and get an AI-powered, context-grounded response. Args: repoName: GitHub repository or list of repositories (max 10) in owner/repo format question: The question to ask about the repository
Why this helps
Code questions in task threads often wait while someone switches tools, finds the right repository, and investigates.
- Keeps investigation close to the original question.
- Reduces interruptions for teammates who hold repository context.
- Makes the repository and question explicit in the returned answer.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Devin MCP once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to use each new comment as a repository question, query the owner/repo named in the comment or task, and share the answer with the task context.
- 4Pick New Comment on Task as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real comment that names a repository and asks a concrete code question.
Questions about this workflow
Will it guess the repository if the comment does not say?
It should use only a repository name present in the task or comment. In your instruction, have it ask for the missing owner/repo when needed.
Can the answer be treated as a code change?
No. Ask question returns an AI-powered, context-grounded response about the repository; it does not make code changes.
