Reset custom runner labels during scheduled maintenance

Add a deliberate runner-label reset to your recurring billing maintenance checklist and get a Notis run report.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Clear self-hosted runner org labels

Removes all custom labels from a self-hosted runner for an organization; default labels (e.g., 'self-hosted', 'linux', 'x64') will remain.

Why this helps

Custom runner labels can accumulate and leave maintenance work dependent on memory and manual cleanup.

  • Make runner cleanup part of a recurring routine.
  • Remove all custom organization runner labels in one action.
  • Keep default runner labels intact.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Billsby and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
  • 3Describe which organization runner should have its custom labels cleared during the maintenance routine.
  • 4Choose a Notis cron schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real runner and confirm the result in the run report.

Questions about this workflow

Will the reset remove default runner labels?

No. The action removes custom labels while default labels such as self-hosted, linux, and x64 remain.

Can a Billsby event start this workflow?

Billsby exposes no trigger events here, so use a Notis cron schedule to start the maintenance automation.

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

List repositories starred by the authenticated user

Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

ActionInstant

Add email for auth user

Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.

ActionInstant

Add app access restrictions

Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.

ActionInstant

Add a repository collaborator

Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.

ActionInstant

Add a repository to an app installation

Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
