Notis

Turn requested PR changes into one workable Gist checklist

Notis converts a changes-requested review into a focused update in your standing Gist comment, so feedback does not fragment across tabs.

Trigger

Pull Request Review Submitted

Triggers when a new review is submitted for a GitHub pull request. Emits an event for each newly submitted review on the monitored pull request, covering all review types: APPROVED, CHANGES_REQUESTED, COMMENTED, and DISMISSED.

Action

Update Gist Comment

Tool to update a Gist comment. Use when you need to modify an existing comment after confirming the gist_id and comment_id.

Why this helps

A dense review can leave the author juggling separate comments without a reliable sense of what remains.

  • Consolidates review follow-up
  • Keeps the remaining work visible
  • Reduces repeated rereading of feedback

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Gist to Notis once.
  • 2Create Changes Requested Review Queue from the Automations page.
  • 3Write a single instruction asking Notis to update the selected Gist comment only for changes-requested reviews, summarizing the follow-up.
  • 4Pick Pull Request Review Submitted, choose where run reports arrive, and test with one review.

Questions about this workflow

Will approved reviews also update the queue?

Not if your prompt says to update it only for CHANGES_REQUESTED reviews.

Does this replace GitHub review comments?

No. GitHub remains the source; the Gist comment is a focused working summary.
