Notis

Keep content follow-ups visible after Slack

When a Slack message gives you a concrete writing, editing, or publishing next step, Notis can add it to Habitica with the useful context.

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 Task

Tool to create a new user task in Habitica. Use after gathering task details like text, type, and optional properties.

Why this helps

Content work can fragment across editorial threads, leaving a small final step untracked.

  • Keep your next editorial step easy to find.
  • Preserve the content deliverable in the task.
  • Capture assigned work without turning ideas into obligations.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Habitica to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
  • 3Use one instruction asking Notis to create a Habitica task when Slack clearly assigns you a concrete writing, editing, or publishing action.
  • 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real editorial message that assigns you a next step.

Questions about this workflow

Will brainstorming ideas become tasks?

Tell Notis to capture only actions clearly assigned to you, not general ideas.

Can it keep the asset or campaign context?

Ask Notis to include a short reference to the content mentioned in the message.
