Consider reusable chatbot skills as channels grow
A new channel is a practical moment to ask whether a reusable Chatbotkit skillset could help with the work planned there.
Trigger
New Channel Created Trigger
Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.
Action
List Skillsets
Tool to retrieve a list of all skillsets available in the system. use when you need to enumerate existing skillsets.
Why this helps
Teams often add spaces without revisiting what capabilities they already have available to support them.
- Make reusable skill discovery part of channel setup.
- Avoid overlooking existing capabilities.
- Help channel owners start with a clearer view of available support.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Chatbotkit to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Give Notis one plain-language instruction to list Chatbotkit skillsets when a new channel is created and report useful candidates.
- 4Select the new-channel-created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Create one test channel and review whether the skillset list is helpful.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow assign skillsets to a bot?
No. The list supports discovery; assignment or configuration is not part of this action.
Can the team use it for every new channel?
Yes. The new-channel-created trigger runs when Slack creates a channel.
