Get the Gitea signing key by DM
Retrieve the public signing key when verifying commits signed by the Gitea instance, with no hunt through settings screens.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggers when a new direct message, including a thread reply, is sent to a user.
Action
Get Signing Key
Retrieve the default public key used to sign commits.
Why this helps
A verification task stalls because the instance signing key is not handy.
- Get the current public key from the instance
- Separate verification material from private credentials
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Gitea to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to create an automation, or open Automations → New Automation in the portal.
- 3Use this plain-language prompt: “When I DM an explicit request for the Gitea instance signing key, retrieve its public GPG key and report the fingerprint and source; never ask for a private key.”
- 4Choose the Slack direct message trigger and a channel for run reports; create it and test with one real example.
Questions about this workflow
Does retrieving the key verify a commit?
