Understand who started each workflow run
Keep CI activity legible when several repositories are moving at once.
Trigger
New Workflow Run Created
Triggers when a new workflow run is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors the repository for any new workflow runs and fires an event for each one. Optional filters allow narrowing to a specific branch, actor, or event type.
Action
Query Gender by Full Name
Tool to determine gender by splitting a full name. Use when you have an exact full name string and want to infer gender. Slightly less reliable for rare or ambiguous names.
Why this helps
Workflow runs create technical noise, making it hard to see who initiated the work that needs follow-up.
- Makes CI activity easier to interpret
- Helps identify follow-up ownership
- Reduces repetitive run-page inspection
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Gender api to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in Automations or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: “When a new GitHub Actions workflow run is created, query Gender api by the actor's full name and report the result with the run, branch, and repository.”
- 4Pick the workflow-run trigger, choose the report channel, and test with one real run.
Questions about this workflow
Can this be limited to one branch?
Yes. The GitHub trigger supports optional branch filtering.
Does it wait for the run to finish?
No. It reports when the run is created; use a run-state trigger for completion.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Gender api. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Gender api actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Get Country of Origin
Tool to retrieve a name's likely countries of origin. Use after confirming the name identifier.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get Gender API Statistics
Tool to retrieve account statistics from Gender-API, including remaining credits and usage details. Use when you need to check your credit balance before performing further gender lookups.
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Query Gender by Email Address
Tool to determine gender from an email address. Use when you need the likely gender based on an email.
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. 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.
Gender From First Name
Tool to determine the gender of a first name. Use when you need to identify gender based on a given name.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Query Gender by Full Name
Tool to determine gender by splitting a full name. Use when you have an exact full name string and want to infer gender. Slightly less reliable for rare or ambiguous names.
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.
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.
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.
