- Helps explain changes during a handoff.

- 1Connect Slack and Agility CMS to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal, or ask Notis to build it conversationally.
- 3Use one plain-language instruction asking Notis to retrieve Agility CMS sync logs when a Slack channel message asks about recent sync changes and summarize the relevant entries.
- 4Choose Channel Message Received as the trigger and select a run-report channel.
- 5Test by asking about a known recent sync update.
