Questions about this workflow
Does this create a contact from every Slack message?
Describe in the instruction what counts as a clear new prospect introduction. Notis uses that plain-language guidance to decide which messages fit.
Do I need to copy contact fields into a setup screen?
No. Explain the outcome in one plain-language instruction; there is no field-mapping screen.
