Keep inline review feedback moving
Specific feedback deserves a specific next step.
Trigger
New Pull Request Review Comment
Triggers when a new inline review comment is added to a specific GitHub pull request. Monitors all review comments across all reviews on the specified pull request and emits an event for each newly created comment. Edits to existing comments do not fire new events.
Action

Tool to send data from the webview back to the botstar chatbot. use when you need to transmit responses or custom outputs from an open webview.
Why this helps
Inline comments are easy to miss when the founder is switching between implementation, review, and release work.
- Surface each new inline comment in a focused place.
- Preserve the direct comment link for quick context.
- Encourage a response, fix, or explicit decision.

- 1Connect GitHub and Botstar to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to send new inline review comments to Botstar with a follow-up instruction.
- 3Pick the New Pull Request Review Comment trigger and choose the channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one real review comment.
Questions about this workflow
