Why this helps
Reviewing a new pull request often means hunting for the right preview URL and switching between GitHub, the browser, and deployment tools.
- Reduce tab switching during PR review
- Spot obvious UI regressions earlier
- Create a consistent visual checkpoint for new work
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.

- 3Tell Notis to capture a screenshot of the pull request preview page whenever a new pull request is created.
- 4Select the GitHub new pull request trigger and choose where run reports should arrive.
- 5Open one real pull request and confirm the screenshot is captured.
