Check Magnetic tasks for every new GitHub issue

Give each new issue immediate business context without opening another app.

Trigger

New Issue Created

Triggers when a new issue is created in a GitHub repository. Pull requests are automatically excluded -- only true issues produce events. Results can be filtered by labels, assignee, creator, and mentioned user. The payload includes the issue number, title, body, state, labels, assignees, comment count, creator details, timestamps, and direct links to the issue on GitHub.

Action

Search Magnetic Tasks

  • Avoid duplicate work
  • See existing project context
  • Keep triage focused
