Automations, Slack and issue trackers
Each automation is a rule: when something happens and it matches exactly, inline does the work as the rule's owner. Alerts arrive in Slack as cards, a Linear issue can come back as a pull request, and in Jira nothing is built until the plan is approved.

Intro
Automations in inline. Rules you write, and work that starts itself.
Automations
Each automation is a rule. When something happens and it matches, inline does the work.
When, if, do
Trigger it from GitHub, a schedule, a webhook, or Slack. Conditions match exactly, never by a model's guess, and actions start sessions, reviews, comments and messages.
Runs as its owner
Every action runs as the automation's owner, with their permissions checked again each time.
Guards, runs and dry runs
Guards cap how often it fires. Every run is recorded with its reason, and a dry run previews each action without sending anything.
Slack alerts
In Slack, alerts arrive as cards. Fix with inline starts a session, and the thread says when its pull request is ready.
Ask inline in Slack
Mention inline, message it, or type /inline, and the copilot answers privately, with your own permissions.
Linear and Jira
Delegate a Linear issue, and the pull request comes back on the ticket. In Jira, comment /inline plan, and nothing is built until the plan is approved.
Intent check
When a pull request names its ticket, the review checks it against what the ticket asked for. inline automations. Work that starts itself.
