Here is a probot app that listens for a comment that matches bobby tables
and adds an attachment to the comment.
t attachments = require('probot-attachments');
le.exports = robot => {
bot.on('issue_comment.created', context => {
if(context.payload.comment.body.match(/bobby tables/i)) {
return attachments(context).add({
'pretext': 'Let us all heed the lessons of little bobby tables:',
'author_name': 'Bobby Tables',
'author_link': 'https://xkcd.com/',
'author_icon': 'http://www.codetinkerer.com/assets/little-bobby-tables.png',
'title': 'Exploits of a Mom',
'title_link': 'https://xkcd.com/327/',
'text': 'Her daughter is named Help I\'m trapped in a driver\'s license factory.',

This extension is what you might call “a hack”. GitHub doesn't have an API for adding attachments on comments, but it does have rather large comment fields that support some HTML. This extension renders the attachment as a blockquote
and appends it to the original comment body.
This extension is inspired by Slack's message attachments.
