Critical Comment Escalation

Critical feedback triggers immediate response. Emergency protocols activate automatically when critical comments arrive.

Trigger

Public Team Comment Created

Fires when a new comment is posted on a *public-team* Linear issue. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_COMMENT_CREATED`.

Action

Get Conditions

Tool to fetch all evaluatable conditions. use when you need to list available conditions.

Why this helps

Critical feedback gets buried in comments. Important issues raised by team members don't get the escalation they need.

  • Detects critical comments instantly without manual monitoring
  • Activates emergency response protocols automatically
  • Prevents critical feedback from being missed
  • Ensures urgent issues get the attention they need

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Apilio to Notis (one-time setup).
  • 2In Apilio, define conditions for emergency protocols (e.g., 'activate_urgent', 'notify_leadership', 'escalate_to_ceo').
  • 3Ask Notis: 'When a critical comment is posted on a public-team issue in Linear, check my Apilio conditions for emergency escalation.' Create via portal or chat.
  • 4Select 'Public Team Comment Created' as your trigger and choose your notification channel.
  • 5Test by posting a critical comment and verify your emergency protocols are evaluated.

Questions about this workflow

How do I mark a comment as critical?

Use a specific prefix (e.g., 'CRITICAL:') or tag in the comment. Your Notis prompt identifies critical comments based on your pattern.

What should my emergency protocols do?

Common options: create an urgent ticket, notify leadership, schedule an immediate sync, add to your top-priority list. Define what matches your actual response.

Can I have different escalation levels?

Yes. Create separate conditions for 'urgent', 'critical', and 'emergency'. Your Notis prompt evaluates the severity and triggers the right level.
