Notis

Mirror hotfix PR milestones into the incident

Notis turns meaningful pull request changes into a clean incident update, giving responders progress without another status meeting.

Trigger

Pull Request Updated

Triggers when an existing pull request is updated in a GitHub repository. Updates include title edits, description changes, label changes, assignee changes, reviewer requests, draft status changes, base branch changes, being closed, merged, or reopened. Only pre-existing PRs that receive an update will fire the trigger; newly created PRs are excluded. Supports optional filters: state, base branch, head branch, author, label, and draft status.

Action

Edit Incident V2

Tool to edit an existing incident in incident.io. Use when you need to update incident details like name, summary, severity, status, custom fields, or role assignments.

Why this helps

The response team cannot tell whether a fix is still drafting, ready for review, merged, or reopened without jumping into GitHub.

  • Makes merge and reopen events visible to responders
  • Reduces status questions to engineers
  • Keeps incident details aligned with remediation state

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and incident.io in Notis once.
  • 2Ask Notis to update the matching incident when the hotfix PR becomes ready, merges, closes without merge, or reopens.
  • 3Pick Pull Request Updated as the trigger and choose a run-report channel.
  • 4Change the state of a linked test PR and review the incident update.

Questions about this workflow

Can description-only edits be ignored?

Yes. List only the milestone changes that matter in the automation prompt.

Can a merge move the incident toward resolution?

Yes. Tell Notis how a merged hotfix should change the incident summary or status while keeping final verification explicit.
