Why this helps
New briefs often stall because nobody checks whether the required CMS content already exists.
- Find existing items before duplicate work begins
- Surface missing content references quickly
- Keep the review in one run report

- 2Create an automation named for new brief content checks.
- 3Tell Notis to read the new brief, identify referenced content lists, retrieve matching Agility data, and summarize gaps.
