Description
Automatically monitor GitHub repositories and stay informed with AI-curated, multilingual updates. This n8n workflow tracks new releases, uses Google Gemini to summarize and translate release notes, and sends polished notifications to a Slack channel—complete with error handling and duplicate prevention.
Perfect for engineering, DevOps, and product teams looking to streamline changelog updates across tools.
🔹 How It Works:
✅ Scheduled Monitoring – A Cron trigger checks selected GitHub repos at custom intervals
✅ Repository Fetch – For each repo, the workflow fetches the release RSS feed
✅ Duplicate Filtering – Redis ensures only new releases are processed
✅ AI Summary + Translation – Gemini summarizes release notes and translates them (default: Chinese)
✅ Slack Notification – A clean, Block Kit-formatted message is sent to your Slack channel
✅ Error Handling – If a repo fails, an error message is posted to Slack without interrupting others
