Send Ntfy reminders for GitHub reviewer requests
Turn a review request into a visible, timely cue.
Trigger
GitHub Pull Request Reviewers Changed
Triggers when the list of requested reviewers (users or teams) for a pull request changes — for example when a reviewer is added, removed, or re-requested. The payload includes the full current reviewer list (users and teams with details), which reviewers were added, which were removed, and the previous reviewer list for reference.
Action
Publish Message to Topic (PUT)
Tool to publish a message to a topic using PUT method. Use when you need to send notifications to subscribers of a topic. Supports various options like priority, tags, attachments, and scheduled delivery.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Ntfy. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Ntfy 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 NTFY Account
Tool to register a new user account on ntfy. Use when you need to create a new user account on the ntfy.sh hosted service. Note: This endpoint is not available on self-hosted instances unless signup is explicitly enabled in the server configuration.
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 Web Push Subscription
Tool to register a web push subscription for browser notifications. Use when you need to enable push notifications from ntfy topics through a browser's native push notification system.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Delete Web Push Subscription
Tool to unregister a web push subscription from the ntfy server. Use when you need to remove browser push notifications for a previously registered endpoint.
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.
Fetch Cached Messages
Tool to fetch cached messages from a ntfy topic. Use when you need to retrieve previously sent messages stored on the server. Supports filtering by time (duration or timestamp), message ID, content, title, priority, and tags. Set poll=1 to return immediately after fetching available cached messages.
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.
Fetch Latest Message from Topic
Tool to fetch the most recent message from a topic's cache. Use when you need to retrieve the latest message without subscribing to the topic stream.
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.
Fetch Scheduled Messages
Tool to fetch messages scheduled for later delivery from a topic. Use when you need to retrieve messages that are set to be delivered at a future date. The poll=1 and scheduled=1 parameters are automatically set to retrieve cached scheduled messages in a single request.
New Repository Collaborator Added

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.
