Prepare a security email when code scanning finds an alert
A security signal should start a clear response, not a scramble to remember what comes next.
Trigger
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.

Action

Why this helps
Security findings require careful communication, but the founder may discover them while already overloaded.
- Starts a consistent communication process
- Makes severity-based response easier
- Reduces the chance of delayed stakeholder updates
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Mailcoach to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Tell Notis: When a high-severity GitHub code scanning alert appears, prepare a Mailcoach security notice campaign for review.
- 4Select the code scanning alert trigger, choose a reporting channel, and test with a safe example alert.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow filter by severity?
Yes. Include the severity threshold and scanning tool in the instruction.
Will sensitive vulnerability details be exposed?
Ask Notis to create a cautious draft that omits secrets and private exploit details.
