Keep issue conversations grounded
Get useful context for new comments without interrupting your current work to research every claim.
Trigger
New GitHub Issue Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specific GitHub issue. Only genuinely new comments are emitted; edits to existing comments do not produce duplicate events. The payload includes the comment ID, text body, author details, timestamps, and direct links to the comment on GitHub.
Action
Query LLM API
Tool to query Wolfram|Alpha LLM API for computed knowledge optimized for large language model consumption. Returns plain text results with query interpretations, computed data, and image URLs. Use when you need comprehensive computational knowledge formatted for AI agent processing.
Why this helps
Important details hide inside comment threads and require manual checking before anyone can act confidently.
- Reduce manual fact checking
- Surface useful calculations in context
- Keep issue threads actionable
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Wolfram alpha api in Notis once.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: For each new GitHub issue comment, use Wolfram Alpha to analyze numerical or factual claims and summarize any implication for the issue.
- 4Select New GitHub Issue Comment and choose a reporting channel.
- 5Test with one comment.
Questions about this workflow
Can it ignore casual comments?
Yes. Ask Notis to respond only when a comment contains a calculation, estimate, or factual claim.
Will it post into GitHub?
Not by default. It reports through the Notis channel you select.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Wolfram alpha api. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Wolfram alpha api actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Async Pod Fetch
Fetch a single asynchronous pod from Wolfram|Alpha Full Results API. Use this tool to retrieve individual pod computations that were marked as async in a Full Results query. When you query the Full Results API with async=true, pods that take longer to compute return async URLs containing 'id' and 's' tokens. Use those tokens with this tool to fetch the computed pod content. Typical workflow: (1) Query Full Results API with async=true parameter, (2) Parse response for async pod URLs, (3) Extract id and s tokens from URLs like 'asyncPod.jsp?id=MSPa...&s=13', (4) Use this tool with those tokens.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Establish Wolfram|Alpha Connection
Tool to store Wolfram|Alpha AppID into the connection credential store. Use when establishing or updating your AppID so that subsequent actions automatically include this credential.
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.
Extract Recalculate URL & Tokens
Tool to extract the recalculate URL and id/s tokens from full Wolfram|Alpha results. Use when you need to follow up with recalc.jsp or relatedQueries.jsp calls.
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.
Full Results Recalculate
Recalculate a prior WolframAlpha Full Results query to retrieve additional computational results (pods). Use this action when: - A previous Full Results API query timed out or returned incomplete results - You have a recalculate URL or ID token from a previous query - You need to fetch more computational pods from the same query The action requires the 'id' token (obtained from EXTRACT_RECALC_URL_TOKENS or from a Full Results response). The 's' parameter is optional and often not needed. Returns raw XML containing the recalculated query results, which may include additional pods or error information.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Full Results Related Queries
Tool to fetch related query suggestions for a previous Full Results computation. Use after obtaining `id` and `s` from a Full Results API response.
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.
Get Wolfram|Alpha AppID
Tool to fetch the Wolfram|Alpha AppID from credentials. Use when you need to verify the current AppID before making API calls.
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.
Query LLM API
Tool to query Wolfram|Alpha LLM API for computed knowledge optimized for large language model consumption. Returns plain text results with query interpretations, computed data, and image URLs. Use when you need comprehensive computational knowledge formatted for AI agent processing.
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.
Query Summary Box
Tool to query the Summary Boxes API for pre-generated XHTML boxes summarizing Wolfram|Alpha knowledge. Use when you need formatted summary information for subjects like countries, chemicals, dates, or people. Requires a valid summary box path from Query Recognizer API.
