Stop Your Bot From Suggesting Finished Work
When a Linear issue is done, the related starter question should disappear from your bot. Automate the cleanup so new users don't see outdated opening prompts.
Trigger
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Action
Delete Starter Question
Tool to delete a specific starter question by its unique identifier. use after confirming the id of the starter question you want to remove.
Why this helps
Bot suggests actions or topics that are already completed, confusing users. Outdated starter questions persist because manual cleanup is forgotten.
- Bot suggestions stay current
- No stale opening prompts
- Automatic cleanup reduces manual work
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure Linear and Botsonic are integrated with Notis
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a Linear issue is marked as Done, delete the corresponding starter question from my bot'
- 3Select 'Issue Updated' and specify status = Done as the trigger
- 4Test with a real issue closure and confirm the starter question is removed
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which starter question matches an issue?
You set the mapping in your prompt. For example: 'Issues labeled onboarding map to the welcome starter question.'
What if the starter question should be kept even after the issue is done?
Refine your automation. Tell Notis to only delete questions tied to specific issue labels or projects.
Can this apply to other status changes besides Done?
Yes, any status works. Tell Notis which statuses should trigger the deletion.
