Create a documentation brief from Todoist
Shrink a broad technical task into the documented facts and next questions you need.
Trigger
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
Action
Query-docs
Retrieves and queries up-to-date documentation and code examples from Context7 for any programming library or framework. You must call 'resolve-library-id' first to obtain the exact Context7-compatible library ID required to use this tool, UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best information you have.
Why this helps
Large research tasks create friction because the first useful slice is hard to define.
- Clarifies the first step
- Surfaces relevant APIs
- Separates knowns from open questions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and Context7 MCP once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that turns each new technical task into a concise documentation brief with sources and open questions.
- 3Pick Todoist New Task Created as the trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel and test with one broad task that names the intended library.
Questions about this workflow
Can it identify missing context?
Yes. Ask it to list missing versions, runtime details, or constraints separately from the documented findings.
How is this different from a code example?
The brief focuses on scope, relevant APIs, assumptions, and next steps; it does not center on one snippet.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Todoist to Context7 MCP. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Todoist triggers
Context7 MCP actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Query-docs
Retrieves and queries up-to-date documentation and code examples from Context7 for any programming library or framework. You must call 'resolve-library-id' first to obtain the exact Context7-compatible library ID required to use this tool, UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best information you have.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Resolve-library-id
Resolves a package/product name to a Context7-compatible library ID and returns matching libraries. You MUST call this function before 'query-docs' to obtain a valid Context7-compatible library ID UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. Selection Process: 1. Analyze the query to understand what library/package the user is looking for 2. Return the most relevant match based on: - Name similarity to the query (exact matches prioritized) - Description relevance to the query's intent - Documentation coverage (prioritize libraries with higher Code Snippet counts) - Source reputation (consider libraries with High or Medium reputation more authoritative) - Benchmark Score: Quality indicator (100 is the highest score) Response Format: - Return the selected library ID in a clearly marked section - Provide a brief explanation for why this library was chosen - If multiple good matches exist, acknowledge this but proceed with the most relevant one - If no good matches exist, clearly state this and suggest query refinements For ambiguous queries, request clarification before proceeding with a best-guess match. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best result you have.
