Make collaborative code review easier to start

A pull request that needs conversation can come with a ready-made place to have it.

Trigger

New Pull Request Created

Triggers when a new pull request is created in GitHub, matching the optional configured filters. Emits an event for each newly created pull request. Supports filtering by repository, owner/organisation, author, assignee, label, state, base branch, head branch, and draft status.

Action

Text Search

Searches for places on google maps using a textual query (e.g., "restaurants in london", "eiffel tower").

Why this helps

When async review stalls, arranging a focused conversation adds planning overhead and often gets postponed.

  • Provides meeting options when review needs discussion
  • Avoids a separate place-search task
  • Helps unblock high-friction collaboration

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Google Maps to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to search for quiet cafes or coworking spaces near the configured base when a new pull request needs discussion.
  • 3Choose the GitHub new pull request created trigger and select a reporting channel.
  • 4Test with a pull request whose description indicates a review conversation is needed.

Questions about this workflow

Does it automatically book a place?

No. It searches Google Maps and reports suitable options for you to choose from.

Can the prompt specify a place type?

Yes. Ask for cafes, coworking spaces, meeting rooms, or another searchable category.
