Check Air Quality When Creating New Tasks

When ADHD and air quality both affect your focus, creating a task without knowing environmental conditions sets you up for overpromise and underdeliver. Get air quality data the moment you create a task, so you can match work to reality.

Action

Get Air Quality by City

Tool to retrieve real-time air quality data for a specific city. use when you have a valid city name and need current aqi and pollutant levels.

Why this helps

Creating tasks without environmental context, then struggling to execute them when air quality is poor, leading to abandoned tasks and broken commitments

  • See air quality before committing to demanding cognitive work
  • Avoid task abandonment when air quality shifts mid-day
  • Match task expectations to environmental reality
  • Reduce manual context-switching to weather tools

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Linear and Ambee accounts to Notis via Settings > Integrations
  • 2Create new automation: Automations > New, name it 'Air Quality Task Check'
  • 3Write prompt: 'When a new task is created in Linear, fetch current air quality for my city'
  • 4Select 'Issue Created' as trigger, pick notification channel
  • 5Test: create a task in Linear and verify air quality data appears

Questions about this workflow

What city does it check air quality for?

It uses your default city in your Notis profile. Mention a different city in your task to check that location.

Will this slow down task creation?

No. The automation runs asynchronously--you create instantly, air quality arrives in your notification channel within seconds.

Can I check multiple locations?

Yes. Mention multiple cities in your task or create separate automations for each location.
