Notis

Clear the build cache behind recurring crawl problems

Notis checks the latest Semrush crawl on schedule and clears the approved GitHub Actions cache key when the anomaly matches your known stale-build pattern.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Clear repository cache by key

Deletes github actions caches from a repository matching a specific `key` and an optional git `ref`, used to manage storage or clear outdated/corrupted caches; the action succeeds even if no matching caches are found to delete.

Why this helps

Recurring stale metadata or generated pages can prompt the same investigation and cache cleanup again and again.

  • Automates a well-understood recovery step
  • Reduces repeated debugging of stale output
  • Keeps cache deletion bounded to an approved key

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Semrush and GitHub to Notis once.
  • 2Ask Notis to check Semrush for your known crawl anomaly and clear only the approved GitHub Actions cache key when it appears.
  • 3Pick a daily scheduled trigger and a channel for cleanup reports.
  • 4Test with a disposable cache key and a real matching crawl example.

Questions about this workflow

Can this clear every repository cache?

The useful setup is deliberately narrow: identify the repository, cache key, and optional Git ref in the prompt.

What happens if the cache key is already gone?

GitHub treats the clear operation as successful even when no matching cache remains.

Accept a repository invitation

Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
