Why this helps
Private project discussions can move quickly, and leaving the thread to investigate terminology breaks concentration.
- Understand specialized wording without opening a separate dictionary search.
- Keep explanations focused on the visible private-team discussion.
- Spend less effort reorienting after terminology lookups.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Dictionary api to Notis once through the portal, using the Linear account with access to the private team.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally to explain unfamiliar words in private-team comments.
- 3Give Notis one plain-language instruction to define relevant words and explain their comment-specific meaning.
- 4Choose Private Team Comment Created as the trigger and select a run-report channel.
- 5Test with one real comment in a private team you can access.
Questions about this workflow
Does the private-team trigger use my Linear access?
Yes. This trigger polls with the connected user's token, so its visibility matches what that Linear account can see.
Can it explain a term without exposing the whole comment?
Ask Notis to return only the term and a concise definition in its run report.
