FAQ

Questions about Slack + GitHub.

Why use a custom GitHub + Slack workflow over the GitHub Slack app?
GitHub's app gives basic per-repo notifications. Custom workflows let you route by repo + label, batch into digests, AI-summarize PRs, post review reminders on stale PRs, etc.
How do I post a Slack message when a GitHub PR needs review?
GitHub PR Review Requested → look up reviewer's Slack ID (via email lookup) → Slack Send DM with PR title, author, and link. Faster than waiting for email.
Can I post a daily Slack digest of open GitHub PRs?
Yes. Scheduled 9am: GitHub Search Issues for "is:open is:pr" → format as bullet list by author → Slack Send Message to #engineering. Daily review-queue checkpoint.
How do I escalate stale GitHub PRs in Slack?
Scheduled daily: GitHub Search "is:open is:pr updated:<7d" → for each, Slack DM the author and assignee. Or post to a #stale-prs channel for engineering manager visibility.
Can I AI-summarize a GitHub PR in the Slack message?
Yes. Insert Claude/OpenAI step between trigger and Slack Send Message. Summarize the diff in 1 sentence. Lets reviewers prioritize PRs based on what they actually do, not just titles.
How do I avoid Slack noise on every GitHub commit?
Filter triggers to significant events (PR opened, merged, release published). Skip per-commit. Aggregate into hourly or daily digests for low-priority signal.
