Make open specification reviews easier to resume
Bring the referenced source file back into view when you return to an unfinished spec.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get File Contents
Tool to fetch the contents of a specified file on the default branch. use when you need raw file text without cloning the repo or using a slower code-host api.
Why this helps
Switching back to an open spec can require remembering which source file it depends on and searching again.
- Fetch files tied to specifications still awaiting review.
- Make it easier to restart after an interruption.
- Keep open document work connected to its code reference.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect iLovePDF and Sourcegraph once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation named Daily open specification file revisit.
- 3Describe in one prompt how Notis should use file references from specifications still marked open in available iLovePDF context and fetch them from Sourcegraph.
- 4Select a daily cron schedule and run-report channel, then test with one open specification reference.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow know which specifications are open?
Only if that state is included in the context available to Notis. The prompt should limit lookup to references clearly marked open.
Will it fetch the whole repository?
No. The request is to fetch the specified file contents from Sourcegraph.
