Ask repository questions as new docs arrive
Give every newly added work artifact a direct route to repository insight.
Trigger
New Document Added
Triggers when a new Google Doc is added/created. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when new documents are detected.
Action
Ask question
Ask any question about a GitHub repository and get an AI-powered, context-grounded response. Args: repoName: GitHub repository or list of repositories (max 10) in owner/repo format question: The question to ask about the repository
Why this helps
New documents often arrive without a clear owner for the technical questions they raise.
- Route technical questions at intake
- Reduce forgotten follow-ups
- Create a consistent research handoff
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Docs and Devin MCP in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation for newly added documents.
- 3Tell Notis to ask Devin the most useful repository question raised by the new document and include assumptions or unknowns.
- 4Pick New Document Added as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one newly added document.
