Character Encoding Requirement Checker

Encoding bugs are discovered late because character requirements aren't clear upfront. This automation watches for encoding questions in comments and instantly looks up language character codes--preventing late-stage bugs and database rework.

  • 3Use 'Comment Received' as your trigger
  • 4Select your notification channel
  • 5Test by commenting 'do we need to support CJK characters?' and verify character data appears
