Code Review Delays → Auto-Reminder → Escalation
Automatically detect stalled pull requests and send progressive reminders to reviewers, escalating to team leads when needed.
Workflow Steps
GitHub
Monitor pull request status
Track all open pull requests and identify ones that have been waiting for review longer than your team's SLA (e.g., 24 hours).
Zapier
Trigger reminder sequence
Set up time-based triggers that activate when PRs remain unreviewed: first reminder at 24 hours, second at 48 hours, escalation at 72 hours.
Slack
Send targeted notifications
Send direct messages to assigned reviewers for first reminders, then post to team channels for visibility, and finally notify team leads for escalation.
