Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Habitica. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Habitica actions
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Add Task to Challenge
Tool to add a new task to a specified challenge. Use when you need to programmatically create a challenge task after the challenge is set up and you have its ID.
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.
Cancel Subscription
Attempts to cancel the authenticated user's subscription. Since Habitica's public API does not provide a cancellation endpoint, this action checks the current subscription state and returns: - success=True with a no-op message if there is no active subscription - success=False with guidance to cancel via the website/app if a subscription appears active
New Branch Created
