Find the codebase behind a vendor handoff
Start with a repository list when a handoff names a product or code area.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
List Repositories
Tool to list repositories on the sourcegraph instance. use when you need to paginate through all available repositories.
Why this helps
Vendor handoffs can land without a clear pointer to the right repository, leaving the next step buried in search.
- Surface repository candidates mentioned in the handoff.
- Make ownership and follow-up easier to route.
- Avoid a manual catalogue search before the next conversation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect iLovePDF and Sourcegraph to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation named Vendor handoff repository search.
- 3Describe in one prompt how Notis should use the product or codebase hints in webhook context to list relevant repositories in Sourcegraph.
- 4Choose the incoming webhook trigger and a report channel, then test with a handoff document naming a known codebase.
Questions about this workflow
Will it decide repository ownership?
No. It lists repository candidates; a person should confirm which repository and team own the work.
Does Sourcegraph search arbitrary PDF text?
The workflow uses the context sent with the webhook, then asks Sourcegraph to list repositories.
