Check gas before retrying a failed GitHub check
A failed check can leave an on-chain operation waiting on a human decision. Get a timely gas estimate alongside the failure so you can judge whether a retry makes sense.
Trigger
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.
Action
Get Gas Prices
Tool to fetch gas price estimates for specific inclusion probabilities. use when you need gas price ranges for the next block or next ~10 seconds.
Why this helps
A failed check creates another context switch when you need to decide whether an on-chain step is safe and economical to retry.
- See current gas estimates when a monitored check changes state.
- Bring a fee decision into the same follow-up as the CI failure.
- Use the returned estimate as context, while making the retry decision yourself.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Blocknative once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Notis by telling it to retrieve current Blocknative gas prices when the monitored GitHub check run changes.
- 3Pick the GitHub Check Run Status / Conclusion Changed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real check run change and review the returned gas estimates.
Questions about this workflow
Will this automatically rerun the GitHub job?
No. The Blocknative action retrieves gas price estimates. Use the report to inform a retry decision; no rerun action is included.
Can the workflow predict the exact transaction cost?
It returns gas price estimates for inclusion probabilities. An exact transaction cost also depends on transaction details that may not be present.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Blocknative. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Blocknative actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Configure Mempool Filters
Tool to configure filters and abi decoding for ethereum mempool transactions. use after establishing a blocknative websocket connection to set up event filters and decoding.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get Gas Price Distribution
Tool to retrieve the current mempool gas price distribution breakdown. use when analyzing gas price trends or preparing fee strategies.
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Get Gas Oracles
Tool to retrieve metadata on supported gas oracles per chain. use when you need to dynamically discover all available on-chain gas estimation oracles across networks.
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.
Get Gas Prices
Tool to fetch gas price estimates for specific inclusion probabilities. use when you need gas price ranges for the next block or next ~10 seconds.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Get Supported Chains
Tool to retrieve supported chains metadata. use when discovering available networks for blocknative gas services.
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.
Get Base Fee Estimates
Tool to get real-time predictions for base fee and blob base fee for the next 5 blocks. use when you need both 99% and 50% confidence estimates for upcoming blocks.
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.
Subscribe Multichain
Tool to generate websocket subscription details for events across multiple chains. use when preparing to track a transaction hash or account address across chains via blocknative multichain sdk.
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.
Subscribe Transaction Hash
Tool to subscribe to transaction state change events of an ethereum transaction hash. use after establishing a blocknative websocket connection to prepare the subscription message.
