Keep track of commitments made in Slack DMs
Turn a message you might forget into a clear reminder of what was promised.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Create Chat Completion
Tool to create a chat completion using DeepSeek models (deepseek-chat or deepseek-reasoner). Use when you need to generate AI responses to chat conversations. Supports streaming, tool/function calling, and various parameters to control generation behavior (temperature, max_tokens, etc.).
Why this helps
Small commitments often get buried among conversations and disappear when attention moves elsewhere.
- Call out explicit promises and asks.
- Retain any timing stated in the DM.
- Make manual follow-up review quicker.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and DeepSeek to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis to extract commitments from new DMs.
- 3Give Notis one instruction asking DeepSeek to list explicit commitments, who made them, and any stated timing, with unknowns left blank.
- 4Choose the Slack direct message trigger and a run-report channel.
- 5Test with a real DM that contains a clear promise or follow-up.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create tasks or reminders?
No. This action generates a DeepSeek summary of commitments from the message.
Will it invent a due date?
The instruction should tell DeepSeek to include only timing explicitly stated in the DM.
