  • Give teams a shared topic map

  • 5Test with one repository request.

Questions about this workflow

Does this return full page contents?

No. It returns the documentation topic structure; use the wiki contents action for detailed reading.

Can the index be tailored to a question?

Yes. Include the question in the Slack message and ask Notis to highlight relevant topics.
