Notis

Clear stale build caches on a schedule

Keep wasteful leftovers from quietly consuming resources and mental bandwidth.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Clear repository cache by key

Deletes github actions caches from a repository matching a specific `key` and an optional git `ref`, used to manage storage or clear outdated/corrupted caches; the action succeeds even if no matching caches are found to delete.

Why this helps

Old caches accumulate because cleanup is useful but never feels urgent enough to remember.

  • Reduces stale CI storage
  • Makes maintenance predictable

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect both integrations to Notis once.
  • 2Create a new portal automation.
  • 3Write that each week Notis should review Corrently conditions and clear the named obsolete GitHub Actions cache key when cleanup is appropriate.
  • 4Choose a weekly schedule and report channel, then test with a disposable cache key.

Questions about this workflow

Do I configure cache fields?

No. Include the repository and cache key in your instruction and Notis applies it.

ActionInstant

List repositories starred by the authenticated user

Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

ActionInstant

Add email for auth user

Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.

ActionInstant

Add app access restrictions

Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.

ActionInstant

Add a repository collaborator

Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.

ActionInstant

Add a repository to an app installation

Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Not just Corrently and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
