Add absence context to critical engineering alerts
A failed run may need a technical fix, a staffing adjustment, or both.
Trigger
GitHub Workflow Run State Changed
Triggers when a GitHub Actions workflow run's status or conclusion changes. Monitors a single workflow run and fires an event whenever it transitions between states (e.g., queued to in_progress, or in_progress to completed) or when its conclusion is set (e.g., success, failure, cancelled).
Action
List Sicknesses
Tool to list all sickness records from BreatheHR with optional date filtering. Use when you need to retrieve sickness absence records with support for filtering by employee, department, date range, and RotaCloud integration status.
Why this helps
Founders can spend energy diagnosing a delivery problem without noticing that a key person is unavailable.
- Adds people context to technical incidents
- Supports calmer staffing decisions
- Reduces unnecessary escalation
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Breathe HR to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Tell Notis: When the monitored GitHub Actions workflow run changes state, check Breathe HR for current sickness records and summarize only information relevant to delivery continuity.
- 4Select the workflow run state trigger, choose an alert channel, and test with one real run transition.
Questions about this workflow
Is sensitive HR information sent everywhere?
Choose a private reporting channel and instruct Notis to summarize only what is necessary for continuity planning.
Does this diagnose the engineering failure?
No. It adds absence context to the existing technical signal.
