Why this helps
Technical questions in private team threads can be easy to miss while switching between Linear and repository tools.
- React to comment discussions in private Linear teams.
- Focus Devin on a concrete question and an identified repository.
- Call out missing details before a useful investigation can run.
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: for a private-team comment with a clear code question and named repository, ask Devin for an answer.
- 4Pick the Private Team Comment Created trigger, choose an appropriate run report destination, and test with one real comment.
