Why this helps
Handoffs lose momentum when the next person has to repeat status checks before understanding where work stands.
- Add current node health to the handoff conversation.
- Reduce repeated checks when work changes hands.
- Give the next person a clearer starting point.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Beaconchain to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to create an automation that checks Beaconchain node health when a Slack handoff requests current node readiness and replies with the result in the discussion.
- 3Select Slack Channel Message Received as the trigger.
- 4Choose a run-report channel and test with one real handoff message.
