Check air quality after documentation updates
A finished README update can mark a cleaner transition into your next work block.
Trigger
GitHub Repository README Changed
Triggers when the README file in a specific repository directory changes. Monitors the README in a configurable directory and branch/tag/commit. The payload includes the current README metadata (filename, path, SHA, size, URLs), the previous and current git blob SHAs, and a list of which tracked fields changed.
Action
Get City Air Quality
Tool to retrieve air quality data for a specific city. Use when you need current pollution and weather data by specifying city, state, and country.
Why this helps
Documentation work is often squeezed between coding tasks, leaving the transition afterward undefined and easy to derail.
- Create a clear transition after documentation work
- Reduce unfinished-task ambiguity
- Use a milestone to prompt a reset
- Keep repository maintenance connected to sustainable pacing
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Iqair airvisual once through the Notis portal.
- 2Create the automation in Automations or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis: When the README in my monitored repository changes, retrieve current air quality for my city and send a short transition suggestion for the next work block.
- 4Select GitHub Repository README Changed as the trigger and choose a reporting channel.
- 5Test with one README update.

Get City Air Quality
Tool to retrieve air quality data for a specific city. Use when you need current pollution and weather data by specifying city, state, and country.
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.
Get supported countries
Tool to list all supported countries. Use when you need to know which countries are supported by the AirVisual API.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Get Historical AQI Data
Tool to retrieve historical air quality data for a city. Use after confirming city, state, and country when you need AQI readings over time.
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.
Get Nearest City Air Quality
Tool to retrieve air quality data for the nearest city based on latitude/longitude or IP. Use when you have precise location data or want to geolocate an IP for air quality.
Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.
Get Nearest Station Air Quality
Tool to get nearest station air quality. Use when you have GPS coordinates and need closest station’s AQI.
New Code Scanning Alert Created
Triggers when a new code scanning alert is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created code scanning alert detected in the configured repository. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
