Automatically Open Your Assigned Work in Browser
The moment an issue is assigned to you, your browser opens it directly. Skip the Linear app, skip searching, skip the friction. You are ready to focus.

- Start work immediately with no search or navigation
- Eliminates the friction between assignment and focus

Questions about this workflow
Does this work for issues assigned by others?
Yes, it triggers whenever anyone assigns an issue to you. You can customize it to exclude certain people or projects if needed.
What if I do not have a browser open?
Notis will open a browser window if needed. If you are on another device, Notis logs the run and you can catch up when you return to your computer.
Can I add it to a second screen?
You can describe this in your automation: 'Open the assigned issue on my second monitor' or use keyboard shortcuts to send it to a specific workspace.
