Make the docs your team maintains do double duty for your voice agent.
Trigger
GitHub Repository README Changed
Triggers when the README file in a specific repository directory changes. Monitors the README in a configurable directory and branch/tag/commit. The payload includes the current README metadata (filename, path, SHA, size, URLs), the previous and current git blob SHAs, and a list of which tracked fields changed.
Action
Upload File
Tool to upload a file to Vapi Knowledge Base. Use when you need to add files for AI assistants to reference. Returns file metadata including ID, storage URLs, and processing status.

GitHub triggers
Vapi actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Update Assistant
Tool to update an existing Vapi assistant configuration. Use when you need to modify assistant properties such as name, voice settings, transcriber configuration, model settings, messages, or other behavior parameters. Only include fields you want to update.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
List Calls
Tool to list calls from Vapi. Use when you need to retrieve multiple calls with optional filtering by id, assistantId, phoneNumberId, or date ranges. Returns an array of call objects with details including status, costs, messages, and artifacts.
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Delete Chat
Tool to delete a chat by its ID from Vapi. Use when you need to permanently remove a chat conversation.
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.
Get Chat
Tool to fetch chat details by ID. Use when you have a chat ID and need full chat information including messages, costs, and configuration.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create Analytics Queries
Tool to create and execute analytics queries on VAPI data. Use when you need to analyze call or subscription metrics with aggregations like count, sum, average, min, or max. Supports grouping by various dimensions and time-based analysis with custom time ranges.
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.
Create Assistant
Tool to create a new Vapi assistant with specified transcriber, voice, and AI model configurations. Use when setting up a conversational AI assistant for voice interactions. The assistant requires transcription (speech-to-text), voice (text-to-speech), and AI model (conversation logic) configurations at minimum.
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.
Create Eval
Tool to create an eval for testing conversation flows. Use when you need to validate that an AI assistant responds correctly to specific conversation scenarios.
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. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
