Resolve code questions raised in Linear comments
Move a concrete implementation question from an issue discussion to Devin, and bring the repository-grounded answer back into the run report.
Trigger
Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Action
Ask question
Ask any question about a GitHub repository and get an AI-powered, context-grounded response. Args: repoName: GitHub repository or list of repositories (max 10) in owner/repo format question: The question to ask about the repository
Why this helps
Useful technical questions in comment threads can be overlooked or require a separate trip to the codebase.
- Catch actionable code questions as they appear in discussion.
- Keep investigations anchored to a repository named in the issue or comment.
- Avoid sending vague comments to Devin as if they contained enough context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Devin MCP once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
- 3Describe the outcome: if a new comment contains a concrete code question and names a repository, ask Devin that question; otherwise report what is missing.
- 4Pick the Linear Comment Received trigger, choose a run report destination, and test with one real comment.
Questions about this workflow
Will every comment trigger a repository question?
The trigger fires for received comments, but instruct Notis to ask Devin only when the comment contains a concrete question and repository context.
Where will I see the answer?
In the run report destination selected when setting up the automation.
