Know Your Team's Capacity Before Committing to New Work
Notis reviews your sprint cycles every morning and reports available capacity. You'll see at a glance whether there's room to add new presentation action items.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get cycles by team ID
Retrieves all cycles for a specified linear team id; cycles are time-boxed work periods (like sprints) and the team id must correspond to an existing team.
Why this helps
You enthusiastically add tasks from a presentation only to find out the team was already overloaded. Burndown charts show it's too late.
- Make smarter decisions about which tasks to add to sprints
- Avoid overloading your team
- Automated report saves you from manual cycle reviews
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: "Every morning at 8 AM, tell me how much capacity is left in our current sprint for each team."
- 3Notis will calculate available points based on team estimates and assigned work.
- 4Choose your report channel.
- 5The first morning, review the capacity report and adjust the prompt if you track capacity differently.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis calculate available capacity?
Notis reads your sprint (cycle) details, team estimates, and assigned issues. It subtracts work already scheduled and reports the remaining capacity.
What if your team doesn't use estimates?
Notis can count issues instead: 'Report how many issues are left to close' instead of calculating points.
Can I get a report for multiple teams?
Yes. Notis will report capacity for all teams in your workspace, or you can specify certain teams in your prompt.
