Turn a red check into a visible next action.
Trigger
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.
Action
Send Text Message
Send a text message to an instagram user via dm.
Why this helps
Failed checks are easy to notice briefly and easy to forget once the founder is pulled into another task.
- Surfaces blockers quickly
- Creates a clear recovery prompt
- Reduces repeated dashboard checking
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Instagram to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in Automations -> New Automation or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: When the monitored GitHub check run concludes with failure or timed out, send me an Instagram DM with the check name, link, and suggested next step.
- 4Pick the check-run status trigger, choose the reporting channel, and test with one failed run.
Questions about this workflow
Can cancelled checks be ignored?
Yes. Tell Notis to act only on failure or timeout conclusions.
Can the message include a direct link?
Yes. Ask Notis to include the GitHub check URL when available.
