Let the team mark research requests without adding another task list.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
List Cryptocurrency Events
Tool to retrieve list of cryptocurrency events. Use when you need to fetch upcoming or past crypto events filtered by date range, coins, categories, or other criteria. Note: Cannot retrieve events before 25/11/2017. The can_occur_before field is important as some events may happen before their stated date.
Why this helps
Potential research ideas are acknowledged with reactions but rarely followed through.
- Convert lightweight approvals into action
- Keep research requests visible in context
- Return event data without manual searching
