Capture research blockers after tracked time changes

Turn time spent into a clearer view of what is slowing implementation.

Trigger

Task Time Tracked Updated

Triggers when a time-tracking interval is created, edited, or deleted on a task. Fires once per interval-change. Reads ClickUp's top-level `data.description` for the lifecycle action and `data.interval_id` for the correlation key — these are unique to time-tracking events and are present even on Deleted (where `history_items` is empty).

Action

Query-docs

Retrieves and queries up-to-date documentation and code examples from Context7 for any programming library or framework. You must call 'resolve-library-id' first to obtain the exact Context7-compatible library ID required to use this tool, UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best information you have.

Why this helps

Teams see rising tracked time but lack a quick explanation for the technical friction.

  • Spot likely documentation gaps
  • Suggest focused troubleshooting references
  • Make recurring friction visible

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ClickUp and Context7 MCP once in Notis.
  • 2Create the automation and describe how to identify research blockers from the task context.
  • 3Tell Notis to query Context7 after each interval change and report likely causes, relevant docs, and a next action.
  • 4Pick ClickUp Task Time Tracked Updated as the trigger.
  • 5Choose where reports go and test with one tracked-time interval update.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow know why time was spent?

Only if the task or time event description provides that context; otherwise it reports likely research areas.

Will it run for each interval change?

Yes. The event fires once per interval change.

Resolve-library-id

Resolves a package/product name to a Context7-compatible library ID and returns matching libraries. You MUST call this function before 'query-docs' to obtain a valid Context7-compatible library ID UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. Selection Process: 1. Analyze the query to understand what library/package the user is looking for 2. Return the most relevant match based on: - Name similarity to the query (exact matches prioritized) - Description relevance to the query's intent - Documentation coverage (prioritize libraries with higher Code Snippet counts) - Source reputation (consider libraries with High or Medium reputation more authoritative) - Benchmark Score: Quality indicator (100 is the highest score) Response Format: - Return the selected library ID in a clearly marked section - Provide a brief explanation for why this library was chosen - If multiple good matches exist, acknowledge this but proceed with the most relevant one - If no good matches exist, clearly state this and suggest query refinements For ambiguous queries, request clarification before proceeding with a best-guess match. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best result you have.
