Keep research questions attached to decisions
Move the next research step into Linear with the reason it matters still attached.
Trigger
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
Action
Create linear issue
Creates a new issue in a specified linear project and team, requiring a title and description, and allowing for optional properties like assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date.
Why this helps
Research follow-ups lose momentum when the question and the decision behind it live in separate places.
- Keep the investigation question alongside team work.
- Make the reason for research visible to collaborators.
- Reduce the effort of restarting context after a break.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and Linear to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up conversationally.
- 3Use one instruction asking Notis to create a Linear issue for new Todoist research follow-ups and preserve the question and decision context.
- 4Select the Todoist New Task Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one research follow-up and confirm both the question and its purpose are clear.
