Why this helps

New scenario cycles can inherit clutter and context from older discussions when they lack a clean space.

  • Give a new cycle a dedicated discussion home.
  • Make the start of a review cycle easy to coordinate.
  • Keep separate rounds of work organized.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Chatfai and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for scenario cycle setup.
  • 3Describe when a new cycle is planned and provide the channel name and any required team details.
  • 4Choose a Notis cron schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Run once with a real cycle setup request and confirm the channel was created.

Questions about this workflow

Does a schedule determine the channel name?

Provide naming guidance in the instruction or supply the desired name in accessible context.

Will it create a channel every time it runs?

The instruction should create a channel only when a new cycle is due. Choose a schedule appropriate to that cycle.
