Why this helps
When work gets assigned, there's a gap between receiving the task and actually understanding what needs doing, forcing assignees to initiate their own kickoff meeting.
- Immediate clarity on scope and timeline for assignee
- Eliminate context-switching from Linear to calendar to email
- Prevent assigned work from languishing without discussion
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Calendarhero to Notis via the portal (one-time setup).
- 2Go to Automations > New Automation and name it 'Kickoff meeting on assignment'.
- 3Enter this prompt: 'When an issue is assigned to someone in Linear, create a 30-minute meeting with that person to align on scope, timeline, and blockers.'
- 4Select trigger: Issue Updated (assignee field changes).
- 5Choose your Slack channel for run reports and test with one real assignment.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create meetings for every assignment change?
Yes, each time the assignee field changes. If you want to exclude reassignments, mention that in your prompt and Notis will filter.
What if the assignee's calendar is full?
Notis will check availability and propose times, allowing the assignee to accept or reschedule.
