Get the missing details up front
Before a vague request turns into rework, get a short question that makes the scope or timing clearer.
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 generate a chat-based completion for a conversation. Use when you have a list of prior messages and need the model’s next reply.
Why this helps
Ambiguous asks require follow-up and can lead to avoidable work done on the wrong assumptions.
- Identify the detail needed before starting.
- Ask a focused question instead of a broad follow-up.
- Reduce rework caused by unspoken assumptions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Groqcloud to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation and tell Groqcloud to identify missing scope, timing, or success criteria and draft one concise clarifying question.
- 3Pick Slack Direct Message Received as the trigger and select a run-report channel.
- 4Test with an incoming DM that leaves an important detail unclear.
Questions about this workflow
Will it ask the sender automatically?
No. It generates a suggested clarification for you to review; the workflow does not send a DM.
Can it avoid asking unnecessary questions?
Ask Groqcloud to suggest a question only when a missing detail would materially affect the work.
