Gather evidence for risks in project updates
Give a newly raised risk a source-backed starting point for discussion.
Trigger
Project Update Posted
Fires when a project status update is posted on the Linear project's Updates tab. Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token.
Action
Search
Performs a web search for a query, scrapes content from the top search results using firecrawl, and returns details in specified formats.
Why this helps
Risk follow-up can be delayed when the person who raises it also has to start the research trail.
- Find public evidence that helps frame the risk.
- Make the first follow-up step easier to start.
- Keep research tied to the project status that raised it.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Firecrawl to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Describe in one plain-language instruction how Notis should search for public evidence related to risks stated in a project update and return sources for discussion.
- 4Pick the Linear Project Update Posted trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one update that describes a concrete external risk.
Questions about this workflow
Can it judge risk severity?
It can find sources and context, but a project owner should assess severity and choose a response.
What makes the result useful?

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Linear to Firecrawl. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Linear triggers
Firecrawl actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Cancel a crawl job
Cancels an active or queued web crawl job using its id; attempting to cancel completed, failed, or previously canceled jobs will not change their state.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Start a web crawl
Initiates a firecrawl web crawl from a given url, applying various filtering and content extraction rules, and polls until the job is complete; ensure the url is accessible and any regex patterns for paths are valid.
Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Extract structured data
Extracts structured data from web pages by initiating an extraction job and polling for completion; requires a natural language `prompt` or a json `schema` (one must be provided).
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Get the status of a crawl job
Retrieves the current status, progress, and details of a web crawl job, using the job id obtained when the crawl was initiated.
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Map multiple URLs
Maps a website by discovering urls from a starting base url, with options to customize the crawl via search query, subdomain inclusion, sitemap handling, and result limits; search effectiveness is site-dependent.
Private Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on an issue in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Scrape URL
Scrapes a publicly accessible url, optionally performing pre-scrape browser actions or extracting structured json using an llm, to retrieve content in specified formats.
Private Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue appears in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Search
Performs a web search for a query, scrapes content from the top search results using firecrawl, and returns details in specified formats.
