Why this helps
Developers lose time searching scattered docs and asking teammates where project guidance lives.
- Surfaces available documentation topics as soon as repository work is queued.
- Reduces context switching before implementation begins.
- Keeps the task connected to the repository context it describes.
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 read the wiki structure for the owner/repo named in each task and report the topic list with the task context.
- 4Pick New Task Created as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real task that names an owner/repo.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which repository to query?
Include the GitHub owner/repo in the task or in your instruction. If it is missing, ask Notis to flag that the repository name is needed rather than guess.
What does this automation return?
It returns the Devin wiki structure, which is a list of documentation topics for the named repository.
