Surface requested pull request changes in the Linear work thread
A task no longer looks nearly finished while its pull request is waiting on revisions. Notis adds the review outcome to the linked Linear issue, so status checks begin with the real blocker.
Trigger
Pull Request Review Submitted
Triggers when a new review is submitted for a GitHub pull request. Emits an event for each newly submitted review on the monitored pull request, covering all review types: APPROVED, CHANGES_REQUESTED, COMMENTED, and DISMISSED.
Action
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
Why this helps
Linear can suggest that work is moving smoothly while the decisive feedback lives only in GitHub, forcing another round of tab switching to understand what is blocked.
- Makes requested revisions visible from the issue the team already follows.
- Provides the reviewer and pull request link without duplicating the whole discussion.
- Reduces status questions when implementation is waiting on review feedback.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Linear to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a pull request review requests changes, find the Linear issue referenced by the branch, title, or PR and add a concise comment with the review link.'
- 3Choose Pull Request Review Submitted as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 4Submit a changes-requested review on a test PR that references a Linear issue and confirm the comment.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which Linear issue to comment on?
It can use the Linear issue identifier present in the branch name, pull request title, or description, as specified in your instruction.
Do approvals create the same comment?
Not when the prompt says to act only on CHANGES_REQUESTED reviews. Other review states can be ignored or handled by a separate automation.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Linear. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Linear 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.
Create linear attachment
Creates a new attachment and associates it with a specific, existing linear issue.
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.
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create linear issue
Creates a new issue in a specified linear project and team, requiring a title and description, and allowing for optional properties like assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date.
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 create issue default params
Fetches a linear team's default issue estimate and state, useful for pre-filling new issue forms.
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.
Create a label
Creates a new label in linear for a specified team, used to categorize and organize issues.
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.
Delete issue
Archives an existing linear issue by its id, which is linear's standard way of deleting issues; the operation is idempotent.
New Repository Collaborator Added
Triggers when a new collaborator is added to a GitHub repository. Monitors the full list of collaborators on a repository and fires an event for each newly added collaborator. The payload includes the collaborator's GitHub username, account ID, profile URL, avatar URL, permission flags (pull, triage, push, maintain, admin), and assigned role name.
Get all teams
Retrieves all teams from the linear workspace without requiring any parameters.
Commit Event
Triggered when a new commit is pushed to a repository.
Download issue attachments
Downloads a specific attachment from a linear issue; the `file name` must include the correct file extension.
