Keep feature work aligned across repositories
Notis handles the repetitive branch creation that makes cross-platform development feel heavier than it should.
Trigger
New Git Reference Created
Triggers when a new Git reference (branch or tag) matching a specified prefix is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created branch or tag whose name matches the configured prefix. Use ``ref_prefix`` to control what is monitored: - ``heads/`` to watch all branches - ``heads/feature/`` to watch only feature branches - ``tags/`` to watch all tags - ``tags/v`` to watch tags starting with 'v' The payload includes the full reference name, node ID, the SHA and type of the Git object the reference points to, and the reference API URL.
Action
Create Repository Branch
Tool to create a new branch in a project. use when you need to create a new branch from an existing branch or a specific commit in a gitlab project.
Why this helps
Branch setup is easy to defer, leaving one tool out of sync and creating avoidable confusion later.
- Reduce cross-tool setup decisions
- Preserve consistent feature naming
- Lower friction when switching repositories
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and GitLab to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis to create a GitLab branch for each new GitHub feature reference, preserving the reference name and source commit.
- 4Select the new Git reference trigger for the feature prefix, choose a report channel, and test with one feature reference.
Questions about this workflow
How is this different from the new branch workflow?
This version focuses specifically on references matching a feature prefix, keeping the automation scoped to feature work.
Can it use a particular starting branch?
Ask Notis to create the GitLab branch from the corresponding source commit or agreed base reference.

GitHub triggers
Gitlab actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Archive Project
Tool to archive a project. use when you need to mark a project read-only after finishing active development. call after confirming no further changes are required.
Webhook trigger

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.
Create Project Issue
Tool to create a new issue in a gitlab project. use when you need to report a bug, request a feature, or track a task within a specific project.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create Repository Branch
Tool to create a new branch in a project. use when you need to create a new branch from an existing branch or a specific commit in a gitlab project.
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.
Delete Project
Tool to delete a gitlab project by its id. use when you need to remove a project, either by marking it for later deletion or deleting it immediately.
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.
Download Project Avatar
Tool to download a project’s avatar image. use when you need the raw avatar bytes after confirming the project exists.
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.
