Notis

Document new automation workflows from day one

When a GitHub Actions workflow is added, Notis creates a Docupilot folder for its runbook material.

Trigger

New GitHub Actions Workflow Added

Triggers when a new GitHub Actions workflow is added to a repository. Monitors a repository's GitHub Actions workflows and fires an event for each newly added workflow. The payload includes the workflow's name, file path, state, creation and update timestamps, and URLs for the API, web interface, and status badge.

Action

Create Docupilot Folder

Tool to create a new folder. use when organizing documents into custom workspace folders after confirming workspace context.

Why this helps

New automation can become opaque when its operational notes are never collected.

  • Starts a workflow runbook space
  • Makes ownership context easier to find
  • Prevents undocumented automation drift
