Emergency work gets visibility and value
Critical issue drops. You respond. That effort logs as a charge, making interrupt cost visible.
Trigger
Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Action
Create Charge
Tool to create a new charge for a user. use when billing a user outside of goal pledges; supports dryrun mode.
Why this helps
Emergency response work drains capacity but stays invisible; interrupt cost and effort go untracked.
- Quantify interrupt load over time
- Track emergency response patterns
- Build data for capacity planning
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Beeminder to Notis (make sure Beeminder account has charge permissions)
- 2Create an automation with 'Comment Received' as the trigger, filtering for urgent or emergency keywords
- 3Set the action to 'create a charge' in Beeminder
- 4Write: When I respond to an urgent issue in Linear, log a charge to my interrupt response goal reflecting effort
- 5Test with one urgent issue response and verify the charge appears in Beeminder
Questions about this workflow
How much should each emergency response charge?
Default to 1 unit per response. Adjust based on your Beeminder goal's slope and how you measure interrupt load.
Can I exclude false alarms?
Manually delete charges in Beeminder for non-emergencies. Or refine the prompt to filter on issue priority level.
