Keep character details current through team handoffs
Make a documented handoff easier to carry through, even when the usual owner is away.
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
Update Character
Tool to update existing character details. Use when you have a character ID and need to modify its attributes.
Why this helps
Ownership and character details can change during a handoff, then drift because nobody knows who should make the edit.
- Keep character records aligned with explicit handoff decisions.
- Reduce coordination messages about who should update the record.
- Help new owners start with current character details.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Convolo ai to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to update a character only from clear, confirmed handoff messages naming the character and new details.
- 3Select Slack Channel Message Received as the trigger and set a report channel.
- 4Test with one real handoff message that states the confirmed change.
Questions about this workflow
Can this handle tentative owner suggestions?
Instruct Notis to wait for a confirmed handoff rather than acting on suggestions or unresolved discussion.
What if the character is unclear?
Ask Notis to skip the update and report the ambiguity through the selected run-report channel.
