Bring customer video context into every new pull request
When code work starts, give yourself a quick view of what your audience is watching.
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
Get Top Videos
Tool to retrieve the top videos from a spotlightr account. use when you need to list the most viewed videos.
Why this helps
Product context is easy to lose when a founder moves from customer-facing work into code review.
- Creates a lightweight customer signal at the start of review
- Helps prioritize messaging and demo updates alongside code changes
- Avoids manually opening Spotlightr for a quick orientation
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Spotlightr to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis for it conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: When a new GitHub pull request is created, retrieve the top Spotlightr videos and explain which ones may be relevant to the changed product area.
- 4Select the new pull request trigger, choose the run-report channel, and test with one real pull request.
Questions about this workflow
Does this change the pull request?
No. It retrieves Spotlightr's top videos and reports the result.
What if the pull request is unrelated to video content?
Tell Notis to mention that the video list is contextual only when the changed area is not customer-facing.

New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
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.
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.
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.
