Review workflow results during dedicated time

When your GitHub Actions workflow completes, Notis adds a review block to your calendar so you process results intentionally instead of reacting to notifications.

Trigger

GitHub Workflow Run State Changed

Triggers when a GitHub Actions workflow run's status or conclusion changes. Monitors a single workflow run and fires an event whenever it transitions between states (e.g., queued to in_progress, or in_progress to completed) or when its conclusion is set (e.g., success, failure, cancelled).

Create Event

Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.

Why this helps

Workflows finish and Slack pings you. You check the result, see a failure, switch to GitHub to investigate, lose focus on what you were doing. An hour later you realize you never actually fixed the issue because you got distracted. You're always context-switching between tools instead of having dedicated review time.

  • Review failed workflows during focused time slots instead of mid-task context switches
  • Batch workflow reviews into calendar slots so you don't fragment your attention
  • Prevent forgotten workflow fixes by making them calendar commitments

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Google Calendar to Notis
  • 2Ask Notis: 'When a workflow run completes, add it to my calendar for review' or set it up in Automations
  • 3Tell Notis which workflows to track (all, or specific ones by name)
  • 4Choose your notification channel for summaries
  • 5Run a test workflow and confirm the completion event appears on your calendar

Questions about this workflow

Will this spam my calendar if workflows run frequently?

You can filter by workflow status. Tell Notis to only add events for failures, or for specific workflows if you get too many.

Can I see the workflow run details in the calendar event?

Yes. Notis includes key info like pass/fail status and a link to the full run details.

What if I want different actions for success vs. failure?

You can set up two automations: one for successful runs and one for failed runs, each with different durations or teams notified.
