Stop stale automation runs from consuming attention
Your CI should support current priorities, not keep yesterday's experiments alive.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Cancel a workflow run
Cancels a workflow run in a github repository if it is in a cancellable state (e.g., 'in progress' or 'queued').
Why this helps
Old workflow runs remain queued or active and create noise when priorities change quickly.
- Reduces noisy and unnecessary workflow activity
- Keeps CI aligned with current feedback priorities
- Removes a recurring maintenance decision
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Delighted and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: Review workflow runs associated with feedback experiments that are no longer relevant, and cancel only queued or in-progress runs that match the stated stale-run criteria.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule, select a channel for reports, and test with one real run.
Questions about this workflow
How does Delighted inform this workflow?
A scheduled Notis run can use the latest feedback context you provide or retrieve through your connected workflow instructions.
Can the workflow avoid cancelling valuable runs?
Yes. Define explicit age, branch, label, or experiment criteria in the instruction.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Delighted to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Delighted triggers
GitHub actions
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
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.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
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.
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.
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.
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.
