Notis

Capture incident signals from Linear comments

A comment can be the first sign that a production issue is affecting users. Notis can log the relevant signal in Honeybadger Insights.

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

Report Event

Tool to send custom events to Honeybadger Insights. Use when recording structured NDJSON telemetry.

Why this helps

Operational concerns in discussion threads can get lost before someone adds them to a monitoring or incident timeline.

  • Captures early concern signals from issue discussion.
  • Helps preserve context for later operational review.
  • Reduces reliance on someone remembering to make a separate log entry.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Honeybadger to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to record production concern comments.
  • 3Write one plain-language instruction describing the comment signals to capture and asking Notis to report them to Insights.
  • 4Select the public-team comment trigger, choose a channel for run reports, and test with one real concern comment.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create an incident in Honeybadger?

No. Report Event records custom telemetry in Honeybadger Insights; it does not claim to create an incident.

Can the prompt focus on production-related comments?

Yes. Describe the signals to recognize in the plain-language instruction, based on the comment context available to Notis.
