Why this helps
New initiatives can start with scattered links and notes because workspace setup comes later.
- Give new research work a dedicated Agenty project.
- Carry the initiative context from Slack into its workspace.
- Reduce the manual setup between deciding and beginning.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Agenty to Notis once via the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one instruction to create an Agenty project when Slack announces a clearly defined new research initiative, using its stated name and purpose.
- 4Select the Slack channel message trigger, choose where run reports go, and test on a real initiative announcement.
Questions about this workflow
Does project creation add agents too?
No. This action creates a project. Agents can be added in a separate step if needed.
How can I avoid projects for tentative ideas?
Make the instruction require a clear decision or explicit project setup request, rather than a passing suggestion.
