AI AGENTS
On-Demand Cited Research Brief from Web + Notion
Triggered by a chat question, an agent searches the live web and your Notion workspace, then writes a structured brief where every claim carries an inline source link.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.
- TriggerTeam member asks a research question in chat
- ActionSearch live web sources with ExaExa
- ActionSearch internal docs in NotionNotion
- ActionSynthesize brief with inline citations (OpenAI)OpenAI
- LogicVerify every claim maps to a real source; drop the rest
- OutputReturn cited brief to the chat thread
What it does
Turns a one-line question into a fully cited research brief. The agent pulls fresh sources from the web via Exa, cross-references what your team already knows in Notion, and synthesizes a short brief in which every factual statement is footnoted with the URL or page it came from. No uncited assertions are allowed through.
When to use it
When an operator, analyst, or founder needs a fast, trustworthy answer to a research question ("What's the current state of X regulation?") and wants to see exactly where each fact originated rather than trusting an unsourced summary.
How it works
- 1A team member asks a research question in the agent chat.
- 2The agent runs an Exa neural search to gather the most relevant recent web sources.
- 3In parallel it searches the Notion workspace for any internal docs on the topic.
- 4An OpenAI synthesis step drafts the brief, attaching a citation to every claim and discarding anything it can't source.
- 5A logic step verifies each claim maps to a real source link; unsupported lines are dropped or flagged.
- 6The finished cited brief is returned in the chat thread.

- 3Connect OpenAIModels, embeddings, files.
- 4Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
- 5Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
- 6Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.

A webhook from a Datadog monitor fires when custom-metric cardinality jumps; an agent pinpoints the offending metric and tag, estimates the added cost.
Sentry-to-Confluence Runbook Updater
When a Sentry issue is resolved, the agent finds the matching Confluence runbook page and proposes an inline update with the verified fix.
Stale Doc-PR Chaser for Runbook Gaps
On a daily schedule the agent finds runbook doc PRs that were opened from resolved incidents but never reviewed, summarizes what each one fixes.
Resolved Incident to Public Troubleshooting Doc
For customer-facing errors resolved in Sentry, the agent drafts a sanitized troubleshooting entry and opens a PR to your ReadMe documentation.
On-Call Runbook Gap Closer: Resolved Sentry Issues to Doc PRs
An agent reads each newly resolved Sentry issue, compares the actual fix against your existing runbook, and opens a GitHub PR adding the missing remediation steps.
Weekly On-Call Doc-Gap Digest
Each week the agent reviews every Sentry issue resolved in the last 7 days, ranks the ones whose runbook coverage is missing or thin.
