Give cat ideas a steady path into Linear
Set aside one scheduled pass for loose ideas and turn the ones worth pursuing into clear work.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create linear issue
Creates a new issue in a specified linear project and team, requiring a title and description, and allowing for optional properties like assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date.
Why this helps
Ideas accumulate in scattered notes until the original context and enthusiasm are gone.
- Create a predictable moment to review supplied ideas.
- Turn distinct, actionable ideas into issues without copying each manually.
- Keep ideas that need more context from becoming misleading tasks.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Cats and Linear once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review the Cats ideas supplied for each run and create a Linear issue only for each distinct idea with enough context, noting what remains unclear.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule as the trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real set of ideas and review the created issues.
Questions about this workflow
Does this search all my ideas automatically?
The scheduled run needs access to or be supplied with the ideas to review; it should not assume a source that has not been connected or specified.
Will every idea become an issue?
The instruction can limit issue creation to distinct ideas with enough context and leave unclear items for later review.
