Trigger

New Pull Request Created

Triggers when a new pull request is created in GitHub, matching the optional configured filters. Emits an event for each newly created pull request. Supports filtering by repository, owner/organisation, author, assignee, label, state, base branch, head branch, and draft status.

Action

Retrieve posts from subreddit

Retrieves the current hot posts from a specified, publicly accessible subreddit.

Why this helps

Founder intuition can drift from the language customers are using right now.

  • Makes validation part of the existing development rhythm
  • Avoids a separate research session

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Reddit to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation from the portal or ask Notis to make it.
  • 3Write one instruction to retrieve hot posts from your chosen subreddit when a feature PR opens and summarize themes.
  • 4Pick New Pull Request Created and a reporting channel.
  • 5Open a sample PR and check the summary.

Questions about this workflow

Can I limit this to feature PRs?

Yes. Describe the repository, branch convention, or label you want Notis to focus on.
