Turn public-team Linear discussion into trackable work
A useful request can arrive in a comment. Notis can move clear engineering follow-up into GitLab before the conversation moves on.
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
Create Project Issue
Tool to create a new issue in a gitlab project. use when you need to report a bug, request a feature, or track a task within a specific project.
Why this helps
Comments compete with active work, which makes it difficult to remember which requests need implementation.
- Keep engineering requests from becoming buried in comments.
- Retain the source discussion for faster understanding.
- Create a repeatable path from request to tracked work.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and GitLab to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to do so conversationally.
- 3Give Notis one instruction to create a GitLab issue from a public-team comment that requests engineering work, carrying over the useful context.
- 4Pick the Public Team Comment Created trigger, select a channel for run reports, and test with one real comment.
