Draft the Right Update When Work Starts
Turn task context into a clear update before stakeholders need to chase you.
Trigger
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
Action
Execute Code
Execute python code in a sandbox and return any result, stdout, stderr, and error. use /home/user folder to write/read files. try to not use plt.show() as the code is executed remotely. use files for image/chart output instead.
Why this helps
Communication slips because writing an update feels separate from starting the work.
- Reduces update writing effort
- Keeps messages grounded in task context
- Makes asks and risks explicit
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and Codeinterpreter in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation that drafts a stakeholder update from each new task, including objective, expected next step, risks, and any ask.
- 3Pick Todoist New Task Created as the trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel and test with one task that affects another person.
Questions about this workflow
Will it send the update automatically?
It drafts the update and reports it to your chosen channel; sending requires a separate supported communication workflow.
Can I set the tone?
Yes. Include your preferred tone, length, and audience in the instruction.
