Notis

Close lingering release change questions monthly

Bring unresolved release references back for a clear diff review.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Compare Commits

Tool to compare two commits in a repository and retrieve their file diffs. use after confirming the repository name and commit shas to inspect differences.

Why this helps

Release notes can leave behind commit questions that are easy to lose once the launch rush ends.

  • Revisit only release references that remain unresolved.
  • See file diffs for confirmed commit pairs.
  • Give post-release cleanup a predictable cadence.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect iLovePDF and Sourcegraph once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Monthly release commit review.
  • 3Ask Notis in one prompt to find unresolved release references available from recent iLovePDF workflows, confirm the repository and two SHAs, and compare the commits in Sourcegraph.
  • 4Select a monthly cron trigger, choose where reports go, and test with one known commit pair.

Questions about this workflow

Can it compare commits when only one SHA is present?

No. A comparison needs two commit SHAs and a repository. The prompt should surface incomplete references for follow-up.

Does this replace release QA?

No. It provides a diff for review as part of a broader release process.
