Trigger

Why this helps
Changes requested can feel vague and linger because the work is mixed into the original development task.
- Separates remediation from new feature work.
- Makes feedback-driven effort visible.
- Creates a reliable restart point after review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Desktime once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Write one instruction to create a Desktime remediation task when a review requests changes.
- 4Pick the pull request review submitted trigger and select a channel for reports.
- 5Submit a changes requested review on a test PR.
Questions about this workflow
