Notis

Catch new commits on waiting pull requests

When the code changes, the review queue should wake up.

Trigger

New Commit Added to Pull Request

Triggers when a new commit is pushed to a specific pull request. Monitors all commits on the specified pull request and emits an event for each newly added commit. This covers force-pushes and additional commits pushed to the PR's head branch.

Action

Send Message

Tool to send a push notification with optional title, URL, priority, sound, attachments, and filters.

Why this helps

After requesting changes, it is easy to miss the moment a pull request becomes ready again.

  • Notice responses to requested changes
  • Avoid stale review queues
  • Resume review with commit context

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Pushover to Notis once.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use this instruction: Send a Pushover notification when a new commit is added to the monitored GitHub pull request, including the commit summary, author, pull request title, and link.
  • 4Select the new-commit-on-pull-request trigger and choose the run-report channel.
  • 5Test it with one real commit.

Questions about this workflow

Can this ignore automated commits?

Yes. Tell Notis to ignore commits from selected bots when appropriate.

Can the alert say whether changes were requested before?

Yes. Ask Notis to include the current review context in the summary.
