Automate Your Weekly Review With Linear Issues
Your weekly review is a habit. Notis creates a Linear issue every week at your chosen time to structure your review with data from your Google Sheets. Never skip a review because you forgot to create the issue.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
Weekly reviews are important for neurodivergent founders but require initiating a task that you then have to remember to do consistently.
- A weekly review issue is created automatically without you having to remember
- Structure your review by including summary data from your sheets in the issue
- Maintain consistent weekly review practice even during busy periods
- Build accountability by creating a documented record of each week's review
- Reduce the setup friction that often prevents reviews from happening
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1In the Notis portal, create an automation with the prompt: 'Every week on [day] at [time], create a Linear issue for my weekly review. Title it with the week's date range and include [summary metrics or action items from your sheet].'
- 2Select 'Notis Cron' as your trigger and set it to 'Weekly on [day] at [time].'
- 3Choose your notification channel.
- 4Test by running the automation manually to confirm the weekly review issue is created correctly.
Questions about this workflow
Which day of the week is best for the weekly review issue?
That's your choice. Many founders prefer Friday afternoon to review the week and plan for the next. Specify your preferred day in the automation settings.
Can I include metrics from my Google Sheets in the review issue?
Yes. Specify which metrics to include in your prompt, e.g., 'Include this week's revenue total, customer count change, and completed tasks.'
What if I want to skip a week's review?
You can manually pause or delete the created issue, or disable the automation temporarily from the portal.
