Check Buildkite capacity when a task is created

Turn each new task into a quick build capacity check before it gets lost in your backlog.

Trigger

Triggers when a new task is created in a Google Tasks list. Uses timestamp filtering (updatedMin) to efficiently detect new tasks.

Action

List Pipeline Agents

  • See connected agent availability early
  • Reduce surprises before starting delivery work
  • Keep planning in one task workflow

  • 2Create an automation named for task capacity checks.
  • 3Tell Notis to inspect Buildkite agents and summarize capacity for the new task.
  • 4Pick New Task Created as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real Google Task.
