Auto-Create Context Conversations for New Issues

Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Create Conversation
Tool to create a new conversation with a specified bot. Use when starting a new conversation thread with optional focus mode to limit bot's knowledge base to specific documents.
Why this helps
When you create an issue in Linear, you have to manually jump to Cody to capture context and assumptions. This context-switching breaks your flow, and often the context never gets documented at all.
- Automatic conversation creation for every new issue
- Captures context without leaving Linear
- Preserves decision rationale for future reference
- Eliminates context-switching friction
- Builds searchable decision history
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Cody to Notis once via the portal
- 2Create a new automation and select 'Issue Created' as the trigger
- 3Write your instruction: 'When a new Linear issue is created, start a Cody conversation with the issue title, description, and key context from the issue.'
- 4Choose a channel for Notis to report automation runs
- 5Test by creating a sample issue in Linear and checking Cody for the new conversation
Questions about this workflow
Will this create conversations for every issue?
Yes by default, but you can refine the automation to skip certain labels or issue types if you only want conversations for specific work.
Can I customize what context gets captured?
Absolutely. Your automation prompt controls the content, so you can ask Notis to extract specific fields, tags, or custom details from each issue.
