Turn check-suite failures into visible follow-up
Keep broad CI failures connected to the delivery work they may block.
Trigger
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.
Action
Create Comment
Tool to add a new comment to a task. use when you need to record discussion or feedback on an existing task.
Why this helps
A failed suite can involve many checks, making it unclear where the project needs attention.
- Surfaces broad build risk
- Keeps ref and conclusion context
- Helps founders spot blocked delivery sooner
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Bugherd to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up.
- 3Instruct: “When a GitHub check suite concludes unsuccessfully, add a Bugherd comment with the ref, conclusion, affected checks, and link.”
- 4Choose Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed, select a reporting channel, and test with one failed suite.
Questions about this workflow
How is this different from a check-run workflow?
A check suite summarizes the checks associated with a ref, while a check run represents an individual check.
Can this be used for release branches?
Yes. Scope the GitHub trigger to the refs that matter for release readiness.

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.
Create Column
Tool to create a new column in a project. use when you need to add a custom workflow column after identifying the project id.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create Comment
Tool to add a new comment to a task. use when you need to record discussion or feedback on an existing task.
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.
Create Project
Tool to create a new project. use when you need to initialize a project after gathering its name and url. example: "create a new project named 'my website' with url 'http://www.example.com'."
Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed

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.
Create Task
Tool to add a new task in a project. use when you have the project id and full task details ready.
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.
