Examples

Ways Notis can move work from Linear to Context7 MCP

View example

Research docs for a new implementation issue

A new Linear issue that names a library and a concrete implementation question triggers a focused Context7 documentation lookup, with relevant examples sent to your chosen channel.

View example

Answer API questions raised in issue comments

When a Linear comment asks a concrete library API question, Notis retrieves current Context7 documentation and reports the relevant answer without interrupting the issue thread.

View example

Find troubleshooting docs for blocked issues

When a Linear issue is updated to blocked and its text names a library and error, Notis looks up current troubleshooting guidance in Context7.

View example

Check version-specific upgrade guidance

When a Linear dependency-upgrade issue changes, Notis consults Context7 for the named package and version transition, reporting migration guidance and breaking changes found.

View example

Identify a library from a new issue

For a new Linear issue that names a package but lacks its exact Context7 ID, Notis resolves the package to a documented library and reports the match for review.

View example

Research migration blockers from project updates

A Linear project update that identifies a specific framework migration blocker can prompt a Context7 lookup for relevant migration documentation.

View example

Fetch examples requested on public issues

A new comment on a public-team Linear issue that asks for a code example can trigger a targeted Context7 example lookup for the named library and API.

View example

Research authentication changes on private issues

When a private-team Linear issue changes and asks a specific authentication question about a named SDK, Notis retrieves the relevant Context7 guidance for a private run report.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Linear to Context7 MCP. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Linear triggers

Context7 MCP actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Query-docs

Retrieves and queries up-to-date documentation and code examples from Context7 for any programming library or framework. You must call 'resolve-library-id' first to obtain the exact Context7-compatible library ID required to use this tool, UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best information you have.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Resolve-library-id

Resolves a package/product name to a Context7-compatible library ID and returns matching libraries. You MUST call this function before 'query-docs' to obtain a valid Context7-compatible library ID UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. Selection Process: 1. Analyze the query to understand what library/package the user is looking for 2. Return the most relevant match based on: - Name similarity to the query (exact matches prioritized) - Description relevance to the query's intent - Documentation coverage (prioritize libraries with higher Code Snippet counts) - Source reputation (consider libraries with High or Medium reputation more authoritative) - Benchmark Score: Quality indicator (100 is the highest score) Response Format: - Return the selected library ID in a clearly marked section - Provide a brief explanation for why this library was chosen - If multiple good matches exist, acknowledge this but proceed with the most relevant one - If no good matches exist, clearly state this and suggest query refinements For ambiguous queries, request clarification before proceeding with a best-guess match. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best result you have.

Trigger Types

Four ways to start an automation.

A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.

Integration triggers

Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.

New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event

Webhook triggers

A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Recurring triggers

Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers

Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.

Why AI automation

Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.

Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
