Notis

Clean GitHub caches from Dropbox archive plans

Archiving old work should also clear the digital clutter around it.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Clear repository cache by key

Why this helps

Archived projects remain in Dropbox and GitHub with stale caches that consume storage and complicate maintenance.

  • Reduces stale build-storage buildup
  • Keeps archived projects easier to maintain
  • Removes a recurring cleanup task from the founder's head

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Dropbox and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in the portal or ask Notis for it conversationally.
  • 3In plain language, tell Notis to review Dropbox archive plans and clear matching outdated GitHub Actions caches.
  • 4Select a recurring Notis cron trigger, choose the run-report channel, and test with one archived repository.

Questions about this workflow

Can this target only archived repositories?

Yes. State the archive criteria in the instruction.

What if no cache matches?

GitHub treats the cleanup as successful even when no matching cache is found, and Notis can report that result.
