Handle name checks in private comments

Keep a small research follow-up attached to the private discussion where it came up.

Trigger

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).

Action

Predict Gender

Tool to predict gender from a given first name. Use when you need a quick gender estimation possibly localized by country code.

Why this helps

Sensitive team discussions can create follow-up tasks that are easy to forget after switching contexts.

  • Keeps the estimate tied to the originating comment
  • Reduces context switching for follow-up
  • Provides a probability score for review

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Genderize to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create a new automation with a name and plain-language prompt.
  • 3Instruct Notis to check private-team comments for a clear contact first name and request a single Genderize estimate with probability when present.
  • 4Select the Linear Private Team Comment Created trigger and set the run-report channel.
  • 5Test with one real private comment containing a suitable first name.

Questions about this workflow

Will it process every comment?

The prompt can limit requests to comments that clearly mention a contact first name and skip other discussion.

Who can see private-team comments?

The trigger polls with the connected user's token, so access reflects that user's Linear permissions.
