Notis

Keep unresolved CircleCI failures from going quiet

Give lingering build failures a visible next step in the issue that tracks them.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create a comment

Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.

Why this helps

A failure may be noticed once, then lose attention while its investigation remains unfinished.

  • Surface unresolved failures during a regular review.
  • Keep follow-up on the related Linear issue.
  • Reduce the need to remember which failures still need attention.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect CircleCI and Linear once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the unresolved-failure review in one instruction.
  • 3Ask Notis to inspect available CircleCI failure data, identify related Linear issues that still need follow-up, and comment with the relevant run details.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule, then select where run reports should go.
  • 5Run a test with a real failure and verify the issue match and comment.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis know whether a failure is unresolved?

Only if the available CircleCI information or related Linear issue context supports that decision. State any additional criteria in the instruction.

Will it comment on every failure each time?

Describe how Notis should identify issues that still need follow-up. The available data must support that check.
