Make GitHub security alerts easier to act on
A security alert should arrive with a next step, not another research task.
Trigger
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.
Action
Render Markdown Raw
Tool to render raw markdown text as HTML. Use when you need to convert markdown content to HTML format for display or processing.
Why this helps
Security findings create urgent context switches and are easy to postpone when their meaning is unclear.
- Creates a consistent first-read summary for each alert
- Keeps severity and affected location visible
- Makes the next action obvious without opening several tools
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Gitea to Notis once through the portal.
- 2In Automations, create a new automation and tell Notis: Render every new GitHub code scanning alert as a concise Markdown remediation brief in Gitea.
- 3Select the GitHub New Code Scanning Alert Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test it with one real alert and confirm the rendered brief is easy to scan.
Questions about this workflow
Can the brief include the vulnerable file and rule?
Yes. Tell Notis in the plain-language instruction to include the alert rule, severity, file location, and available remediation guidance.
Will this create a new Gitea issue?
No. This workflow uses Gitea Markdown rendering to prepare a readable brief. It does not create an issue because that action is not available in the supplied Gitea events.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Gitea. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Gitea actions

Get General API Settings
Tool to retrieve the Gitea instance's global API settings including pagination limits and response size constraints. Use when you need to understand API rate limits or configuration parameters.

Get General Repository Settings
Tool to retrieve the Gitea instance's global settings for repositories including feature flags for mirroring, HTTP Git, migrations, stars, time tracking, and LFS. Use when you need to understand which repository features are enabled or disabled at the instance level.
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.
Get General UI Settings
Tool to retrieve the Gitea instance's global settings for UI including default theme, allowed reactions, and custom emojis. Use when you need to understand the UI configuration of the instance.
