Notis

Add optional participant context to GitHub notifications

Notis turns notification noise into a clearer, channel-ready update without asking you to investigate every thread.

Trigger

Repository Notification Received

Triggers when a new or newly updated notification thread appears for a specific GitHub repository. Monitors notifications for issues, pull requests, commits, releases, check suites, security alerts, and other repository activity. Supports filtering by read/unread status and by direct participation. Requires a Personal Access Token (classic) with the ``notifications``

Action

Query Gender by Full Name

Tool to determine gender from a full name. Extracts the first valid name token and queries the GenderAPI.io single-name endpoint. Use when you have a full name and want to infer likely gender.

Why this helps

Notification threads can mix issues, reviews, releases, and alerts, making it difficult to regain a clear picture after time away.

  • Reduces notification triage load
  • Keeps optional context near the alert
  • Works across repository activity

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and GenderAPI.io to Notis once.
  • 2Create a new automation in the portal.
  • 3Write a prompt asking Notis to query an available participant full name from each repository notification and report the optional result.
  • 4Select Repository Notification Received and choose a run-report channel.
  • 5Trigger a real repository notification to test it.
