Create Wit.ai traits from feature branches

Make a new feature branch the prompt to capture language behavior your product will need.

Trigger

New Git Reference Created

Triggers when a new Git reference (branch or tag) matching a specified prefix is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created branch or tag whose name matches the configured prefix. Use ``ref_prefix`` to control what is monitored: - ``heads/`` to watch all branches - ``heads/feature/`` to watch only feature branches - ``tags/`` to watch all tags - ``tags/v`` to watch tags starting with 'v' The payload includes the full reference name, node ID, the SHA and type of the Git object the reference points to, and the reference API URL.

Action

Create Wit.ai Trait

Tool to create a new trait in wit.ai. use when defining custom entity attribute matching behavior.

Why this helps

Ideas for language handling get lost between branch creation and later planning.

  • Capture intent design earlier
  • Reduce forgotten setup work

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Wit.ai to Notis once.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or by asking Notis.
  • 3Describe: create a relevant Wit.ai trait for each new feature branch.
  • 4Choose New Git Reference Created with the feature branch prefix and a channel.
  • 5Create one test feature branch.

Questions about this workflow

Can the trigger focus on feature branches?
