Permanently Record Decisions in Your Code
Decisions fade when they're only in Monday task comments. Notis archives final decisions as Gist comments tied to the actual code, so future developers understand the 'why' behind implementation choices.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Update Gist Comment
Tool to update a Gist comment. Use when you need to modify an existing comment after confirming the gist_id and comment_id.
Why this helps
You make technical decisions in Monday, but they're forgotten over time because they're not recorded where the code lives. New team members have no context for why something was implemented a certain way.
- Decisions stay with the code forever
- Future developers see the reasoning
- No need to search Monday for old decisions
- Create searchable decision history
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect both Gist and Monday to Notis in the portal
- 2Create an automation named 'Decision Archive to Gist'
- 3In the Prompt, write: 'When a Monday task titled with decision or discussion tag is marked complete, update the associated Gist with a comment containing the final decision and outcome from the task'
- 4Set Trigger to webhook, choose your notification channel, and save
- 5Test by completing a Monday task that references a Gist and includes a decision or discussion point
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which Gist to update?
Include the Gist ID or link in the Monday task description. Notis will look for it automatically when the task is completed.
Can I customize the comment format?
Yes. Tell Notis in the prompt exactly how you want the comment formatted - like 'Include the decision date, decision maker, and rationale in a clear format.'
What if the Gist already has many comments?
Notis will add the new comment to the existing thread. The Gist will have a complete discussion trail of why the code is the way it is.
