Why this helps
New issues often land while you are focused elsewhere, and unfamiliar vocabulary adds another step before triage.
- Reduce the effort of triaging language-heavy issues.
- Understand a new request before choosing a next step.
- Keep your attention on the issue instead of a separate lookup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Dictionary api to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language to explain unfamiliar terms in new public-team issues.
- 3Use one instruction requesting relevant definitions and a concise explanation tied to the issue.
- 4Select Public Team Issue Created and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real issue from a public Linear team.
