Why this helps
Important Slack context can disappear in channel activity even after the follow-up has been added to a task list.
- Keep supporting conversation visible for later reference.
- Reduce hunting through channel history.
- Tie follow-up context to the team's task process.

- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify the Slack message related to a Checkvist follow-up task and star that message.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real task and its matching Slack conversation.
