Label GitHub Issues Directly from Telegram

Something just became urgent. Instead of context-switching to GitHub to add the 'urgent' label, you type in Telegram and it's done. Your issue is visible to the team with the right priority.

Add labels to an issue

Add labels to a repository issue.

Why this helps

Manual label management in GitHub breaks async workflows. Neurodivergent founders struggle with remembering to tag issues, leading to lost priorities and duplicated work.

  • Label issues in seconds from Telegram—no UI navigation required
  • Priorities stay synchronized across your team without manual effort
  • Prevents issues from being mislabeled due to forgotten steps
  • Async-friendly workflow that fits neurodivergent work patterns

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and GitHub to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When I send a Telegram message mentioning an issue number and a priority like urgent, blocked, or in-progress, add that label to the GitHub issue.'
  • 3Select Telegram (New Message) and pick your Notis notification channel.
  • 4Test by sending a message like 'Issue #42 urgent' in Telegram and confirm the label appears on GitHub.

Questions about this workflow

Can I create custom labels?

Yes. Any labels already created in your GitHub repo can be used. If you mention a new label, Notis will create it automatically.

What if I want to add multiple labels at once?

List them in your message: 'Issue #42 urgent, blocked, needs-review' and Notis adds all of them.

Can I remove labels with this workflow?

Currently this adds labels. For removing labels, create a separate automation or manage them directly in GitHub.
