  • Get a focused view of proposed change history.
  • Reduce review-context switching.

  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Describe in one plain-language instruction how Notis should retrieve commits when a Telegram message asks about a merge request's changes.
  • 4Pick New Message Received and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Request commits for a known merge request and review the returned list.

Questions about this workflow
