Move tool deployment requests into action
Turn a clear deployment request in Slack into the first step of a Griptape tool deployment.
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
Create Tool
Tool to create a new tool in Griptape Cloud. Use when you need to deploy a tool from a Git repo or ZIP archive.
Why this helps
A deployment request can sit idle while someone manually carries the details from discussion into Griptape.
- Give deployment requests a direct route to Griptape.
- Keep deployment context with the originating message.
- Reduce repeated entry of deployment details.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Griptape to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Write one instruction identifying authorized deployment requests and specifying that Griptape should create the requested tool using the provided repository or archive context.
- 4Select Slack Channel Message Received and choose where Notis should report runs.
- 5Test with one approved request whose deployment source is ready.

Can this deploy from a repository or ZIP archive?
