Understand new automation without reverse engineering it
A new workflow arrives with a concise explanation of what it does, when it runs, and what to watch.
Trigger
New GitHub Actions Workflow Added
Triggers when a new GitHub Actions workflow is added to a repository. Monitors a repository's GitHub Actions workflows and fires an event for each newly added workflow. The payload includes the workflow's name, file path, state, creation and update timestamps, and URLs for the API, web interface, and status badge.
Action
Text Chat Completion
Tool to generate text completions or chat responses using a specified llm model. use after assembling the conversation history to produce the next response.
Why this helps
New automation can become invisible infrastructure that only its author understands.
- Make automation understandable
- Improve team handoffs
- Reduce hidden operational knowledge
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Ai ml api to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a new automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up.
- 3Use this instruction: When a new GitHub Actions workflow is added, ask Ai ml api to explain its purpose, likely trigger behavior, important dependencies, and operational watch-outs in plain language, then send me the guide.
- 4Pick the new workflow added trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
- 5Test it with one new workflow.
Questions about this workflow
Is this useful for solo founders?
Yes. It creates a quick reference for automation you may need to revisit months later.
Can it document dependencies?

Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Check Run Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub check run changes its status or conclusion. Monitors a single check run for changes to: status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.), conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required), started_at, and completed_at.
Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.
New Code Scanning Alert Created
Triggers when a new code scanning alert is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created code scanning alert detected in the configured repository. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
