Start public research with a first-name check
Give a clearly scoped research issue a simple next step without adding another manual task.
Trigger
Public Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue is created in a Linear *public* team. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_CREATED`.
Action
Gender From First Name
Tool to determine the gender of a first name. Use when you need to identify gender based on a given name.
Why this helps
New issues bring lots of context, and a small optional lookup can disappear in the intake pile.
- Attaches the lookup to an issue created for the research purpose.
- Provides a reviewable result without another app switch.
- Keeps uncertainty visible from the first step.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Gender-API to Notis once and ensure the connected account can access the public team.
- 2Create an automation through Automations or by asking Notis in plain language.
- 3In one prompt, ask Notis to check a first name on a suitable, consented research issue when it is created and report the likely estimate for human review.
- 4Select the Public Team Issue Created trigger and a reporting channel.
- 5Test with one appropriate example and review the result before using it.
Questions about this workflow
Does this process every new public issue?
Describe the appropriate research context in the prompt so the lookup is relevant to the intended work.
Can I use the result as a preferred pronoun?
