How this flow runs

When

New Issue

GitHub

Then 1

Categorize with AI

Taskade AI

Then 2

Filter

Continue only if the issue is classed as urgent

Stop a run cleanly when a condition is not met. A filtered run is not a failure, so it never shows up as an error. Inside a loop it skips just that item and keeps going.

Then 3

Send Email

SMTP

Filter is a step you add in the builder, in the same list as an app step. There is no separate scripting surface. All automation actions
