Keep financial project context near status updates
Project status updates can carry the details needed for a client check-in. Let Notis bring back the FreshBooks project list at that moment.
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
List Projects

Why this helps
Status updates are useful, but related project context may be buried in a separate finance tool.
- Surface FreshBooks project options when the status update is fresh.
- Reduce the number of places to check before preparing a client update.
- Make status-to-finance context easier to revisit.

- 3Write one plain-language instruction to report the projects for the relevant FreshBooks business with the Linear update context.
