Move trusted fork checks forward
Approval prompts interrupt deep work. Give Notis a clear rule for trusted requests and let it surface or approve the matching GitHub run.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Approve a workflow run for a fork pull request
Approves a workflow run from a forked repository's pull request; call this when such a run requires manual approval due to workflow configuration.
Why this helps
Manual fork workflow approvals are easy to miss and can block otherwise ready contributions.
- Reduces blocked contributor workflows
- Makes approval criteria explicit
- Cuts repetitive security-context review
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Rosette text analytics and GitHub to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to handle approved fork workflow runs.
- 3Tell Notis: Analyze the incoming pull request context and approve the GitHub workflow run only when it matches the stated trusted criteria; otherwise report it for review.
- 4Use an incoming webhook trigger, choose a run-report channel, and test with a safe fork request.
Questions about this workflow
Can it approve every fork automatically?
It should be given narrow criteria and can report anything outside those criteria for human review.
What text can Rosette analyze?
It can analyze the pull request description, review notes, or other text included in the webhook payload.

Rosette text analytics triggers
GitHub actions
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
List repositories starred by the authenticated user
Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
Add email for auth user
Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.
Add app access restrictions
Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.
Add a repository collaborator
Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.
Add a repository to an app installation
Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
