React Workflows are workflows that are triggered by events in your repository. They take the form of “If X happens, then Ellipsis should do Y”.
They take the form of “If X happens, then Ellipsis should do Y”.
You define react workflows in the web UI using natural language; there’s no workflow builder, you simply describe what actions you want Ellipsis to take.
