Reduce the effort of preparing public replies
Keep your reply focused on the comment itself. Notis can make a consented full-name query and provide the result as optional context for a human reviewer.
Trigger
Public Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on a *public-team* Linear issue. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_COMMENT_CREATED`.
Action
Query Gender by Full Name
Tool to determine gender from a full name. Extracts the first valid name token and queries the GenderAPI.io single-name endpoint. Use when you have a full name and want to infer likely gender.
Why this helps
Preparing a considerate reply can become a string of small research tasks that interrupts focused work.
- Reduce separate lookup work while preparing a response.
- Keep reply decisions grounded in the person's own stated preferences.
- Surface the prediction as uncertain and optional.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and GenderAPI.io to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation by asking Notis to query a full name from a public-team comment only when consent is recorded and report the inference as uncertain context for human review.
- 3Select the Linear Public Team Comment Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one consented comment and confirm that the prompt does not instruct Notis to address the person based on the inference.
Questions about this workflow
Should the inference determine the greeting?
No. Use the person's stated name and preference. The prediction can be wrong and should not override what they share.
Can this run without consent?
The prompt should explicitly direct Notis to skip the query unless consent is recorded.
