Celebrate and share your starred repository
When someone stars your GitHub repository, Notis adds a calendar task to share and celebrate that recognition.
Trigger
New Stargazer Added
Triggers when a new user stars a GitHub repository. Emits an event for each new stargazer detected on the monitored repository.
Action
Create Event
Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.
Why this helps
Your repo gets starred. You see the notification, feel good for a second, then move on. You never share the win or use it as momentum for marketing. Months later you have hundreds of stars but never celebrated or leveraged the social proof.
- Celebrate recognition immediately by sharing new stars with your community
- Keep marketing and social sharing from falling off your calendar
- Leverage social proof by having stars prompt immediate social sharing
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Google Calendar to Notis
- 2Ask Notis: 'When my repository is starred, add a task to share it on social media' or set it up in Automations
- 3Optionally only trigger for milestones (100 stars, 500 stars) if frequent stargazing would clutter your calendar
- 4Choose your notification channel
- 5Get a star on a test repo and confirm the calendar task appears
Questions about this workflow
Should I share every single star?
You can filter to milestones. Tell Notis 'only remind me at 100, 500, 1000 stars' to keep it meaningful.
Can I automate the social media post?
Notis will create the calendar task. You'll post manually, but the calendar reminder ensures you don't forget.
Is this only for Twitter or other platforms too?
The calendar task applies to any platform. You can share on Twitter, LinkedIn, Hacker News, etc. based on your audience.

Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.

The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
