Why this helps
Important codebase questions arrive in chat, then disappear while you switch between messaging and repository tools.
- Reduce context switching between WhatsApp and repository research.
- Get answers grounded in the repositories you specify.
- Keep a searchable run report for follow up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect TimelinesAI and Devin MCP in Notis once.
- 2Create a new automation and name the WhatsApp repository question workflow.
- 3Tell Notis to read each incoming WhatsApp message, identify the repository and question, ask Devin, and summarize the answer with any missing details called out.
- 4Choose New WhatsApp Message Received as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test it with one real WhatsApp message that includes an owner/repo and a code question.
Questions about this workflow
What must the WhatsApp message include?
It should include a repository in owner/repo format and a clear question. If either is missing, ask the sender for it or report the gap.
Can Devin answer about more than one repository?
Yes. The Ask question action supports up to 10 repositories when the message names them clearly.
