Add breathing room after approval
An approval can start a short pause that gives people time to finish what they are doing before the next handoff.
Trigger
Callback Query Received
Triggered when a user taps an inline keyboard button attached to one of your bot's messages.

Why this helps
Immediate handoffs after an approval can catch teammates mid-task and create missed context.
- Adds time between approval and handoff
- Supports calmer team coordination
- Makes the approval action a clear starting cue
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Bench to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to start a pause when a Telegram approval button is tapped.
- 3Give Notis one plain-language instruction for the approval cue and wait duration; Sleep does not send the handoff itself.
- 4Choose Callback Query Received as the trigger and select a run-report channel.
- 5Tap the real approval button once and verify the pause.
Questions about this workflow
Does tapping the button approve a benchmark inside Bench?
No. It triggers the workflow pause only; the available Bench action does not start or approve a benchmark.
Can we use the pause before an existing handoff?
Yes, if a later workflow step handles the handoff. Sleep itself only waits.
