By default, Catana creates a GitHub issue [when a TODO expires](/core-concepts/regular-and-expiring-todos.md#expiring-todos).\
You can however **enable the option to open a GitHub issue immediately** when a new TODO is introduced.

#### Reminders

When a TODO expires, Catana will notify its assignee by commenting on the opened issue.
