Verify Node Health Before Deployment Work Begins

Never start a deployment on an unhealthy node. Check health automatically when deployment tasks are created.

Trigger

Public Team Issue Created

Fires when a new issue is created in a Linear *public* team. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_CREATED`.

Action

Get Node Health

Tool to get the health status of the node. use when you need to check if the node is ready, syncing, or in an error state.

Why this helps

Deployment tasks are created but node health isn't checked first, so you start deployment work on potentially unstable infrastructure.

  • Start deployments from known-good state
  • Separate deployment issues from infrastructure problems
  • Evidence for deployment decisions
  • Reduce failed deployments from unhealthy nodes

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Beaconchain to Notis (one-time setup).
  • 2Create automation: 'When a deployment task is created, check the current validator node health.'
  • 3Select the trigger: Public Team Issue Created (filter for 'deployment' label).
  • 4Choose your notification channel to receive health status with new deployment tasks.
  • 5Test by creating a deployment task and verifying health data arrives.

Questions about this workflow

What health metrics would make me postpone deployment?

Red flags: node down, severely lagged sync, recent failures. Green: synced, responding, stable uptime. Use health status to guide your decision.

Can I redeploy if health improves later?

Yes - the initial health check is a baseline. If health improves, update the task to retrigger the check or manually proceed with deployment.

Should I create separate deployment tasks for healthy vs unhealthy nodes?

You could tag them differently (urgent vs scheduled), but one task per deployment is cleaner. Let health status inform the priority.
