   • generate notifications for PRs that touch code (tests excluded?) and are labelled with skip-issue
   • generate notifications for PRs with large diffs (generated files excluded)

   I still think we should consider this. I can help move this forward, but I need someone to help me get started with bot hacking.

   I think you need to

   • create the channel manually
   • get into some admin dashboard to create a webhook configured to post into that channel
   • send a POST request with a message: https://github.com/python/buildmaster-config/pull/535/files#diff-2cd6017ac3282602901e72065afa3899460144408f623174861b6f5ea66e2db5R66-R82

   (I know there used to be a discord python library to make this easier (and support markup and other rich content) but last I heard about it, it was difficult to maintain it because of discord’s actions hostile to third-party automations.)
