Give difficult review comments better external context

When a reviewer raises a concern, find related reporting without guessing the perfect keyword.

Trigger

New Pull Request Review Comment

Triggers when a new inline review comment is added to a specific GitHub pull request. Monitors all review comments across all reviews on the specified pull request and emits an event for each newly created comment. Edits to existing comments do not fire new events.

Action

Vector Search Articles

Tool to perform a vector search on Perigon’s real-time news database. Use when you need to retrieve semantically similar news articles given a natural language query.

Why this helps

Technical questions often require open-ended research that is difficult to phrase quickly.

  • Search by meaning, not exact phrasing
  • Reduce research friction
  • Support clearer technical decisions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Perigon to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it.
  • 3Use this instruction: “When a new inline pull request review comment appears, use Perigon vector search with the comment and surrounding pull request context to find semantically related recent articles, then summarize useful evidence.”
  • 4Select the new review comment trigger, choose the reporting channel, and test with one real comment.

Questions about this workflow
