Check returned data before planning the next step

Know what a tool returns before deciding how another action can use the result.

Trigger

Channel Message Received

Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.

Action

Get response schema

Retrieves the response schema for a specified composio tool. this action fetches the complete response schema definition for any valid composio tool, returning it as a dictionary that describes the expected response structure.

Why this helps

A downstream step gets planned around fields or outputs that the first action may not provide.

  • Inspect expected response structure before chaining actions.
  • Reduce mismatches between dependent workflow steps.
  • Make tool evaluation more concrete.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Composio to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create a plain-language instruction to retrieve the response schema when a message proposes a specific Composio tool for a multi-step workflow.
  • 3Select Slack Channel Message Received as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with a real tool name being considered for a workflow.

Questions about this workflow

Does a response schema guarantee every run returns the same values?

A schema describes the expected structure, while actual values can vary by tool result.

What if the message only describes the task?

Ask Notis to identify or confirm the exact tool before retrieving its schema.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Slack to Composio. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Slack triggers

Composio actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Ask Oracle

Static helper that returns a comprehensive system prompt describing how to plan and execute tasks using the available composio tools and workflows. no inputs required; simply call to retrieve the prompt. always call this after the search tool is executed -- it will provide the best context on how to proceed, chain tools, and execute the task end-to-end. relevant tools referenced by the prompt: 1. composio search tools 2. composio multi execute tool 3. composio execute code 4. composio manage connections 5. composio bash tool

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Check active connection (deprecated)

Deprecated: use check active connections instead for bulk operations. check active connection status for a toolkit or specific connected account id. returns connection details if active, or required parameters for establishing connection if none exists. active connections enable agent actions on the toolkit.

ActionInstant

New Channel Created Trigger

Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.

TriggerInstant

Check multiple active connections

Check active connection status for multiple toolkits or specific connected account ids. returns connection details if active, or required parameters for establishing connection if none exists. active connections enable agent actions on toolkits.

Create Plan

This is a workflow builder that ensures the LLM produces a complete, step-by-step plan for any use case. WHEN TO CALL: - Call this tool based on COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS output. If search tools response indicates create_plan should be called and the usecase is not easy, call it. - Use this tool after COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS or COMPOSIO_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS to generate an execution plan for the user's use case. - USE for medium or hard tasks — skip it for easy ones. - If the user switches to a new use case in the same chat and COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS again instructs you to call the planner, you MUST call this tool again for that new use case. Memory Integration: - You can choose to add the memory received from the search tool into the known_fields parameter of the plan function to enhance planning with discovered relationships and information. Outputs a complete plan with sections such as "workflow_steps", "complexity_assessment", "decision_matrix", "failure_handling" "output_format", and more as needed. If you skip this step for non-easy tasks, workflows will likely be incomplete, or fail during execution for complex tasks. Calling it guarantees reliable, accurate, and end-to-end workflows aligned with the available tools and connections.

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Enable trigger

Enable a specific trigger for the authenticated user.

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

TriggerInstant

Execute agent

Execute complex workflows using ai agent reasoning between multiple tool calls. use this for: complex multi-step workflows requiring reasoning, error handling and retry logic. use composio multi execute tool instead for: simple parallel operations, batch operations on similar data (e.g., fetch 5 emails, get 10 sent messages, retrieve multiple user profiles), independent tool calls that don't need each other's results, or bulk operations where all parameters are known upfront. performance: agent calls add ~2-3 seconds overhead. use for workflows >3 tools or requiring conditional logic. avoid for simple parameter passing.

ActionInstant

Message Reaction Removed

Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

TriggerInstant

Execute Composio Tool

Execute a tool using the composio api.

ActionInstant

Reaction Added Trigger

DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_ADDED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack.

TriggerInstant

Get Tool Dependency Graph

Get the dependency graph for a given tool, showing related parent tools that might be useful. this action calls the composio labs dependency graph api to retrieve tools that are commonly used together with or before the specified tool. this helps discover related tools and understand common workflows.
