Plan around failures without losing the day

A failed workflow needs attention, but it does not need to erase your schedule. See what is already booked before choosing the next move.

Trigger

GitHub Workflow Run State Changed

Action

Fetch all bookings

Retrieves a list of bookings.

Why this helps

Technical failures trigger reactive context-switching and collisions with existing meetings.

  • Creates a calmer response to failed builds.
  • Surfaces commitments before debugging begins.
  • Helps separate urgent investigation from immediately available time.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Cal to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in Automations -> New Automation or ask Notis to create it.
  • 3Use this instruction: When a GitHub Actions workflow run fails, fetch my upcoming Cal bookings and summarize the next available windows for investigating the failure.
  • 4Choose the GitHub Workflow Run State Changed trigger and a channel for reports.
  • 5Test with one real failed workflow run.
