How to call a script when creating an issue?

Question

GitLab

Can I use Gitlab CI/CD tools to call a script stored in a repository when creating an issue in the same repository?

I found how to do this using WebHook, but I don’t want to raise a separate web service for this, but I want to have a config something like:

on:
  issues: ['created']

jobs:
  process:
    script:
      - npm run some-script

CI / CD is not designed for this, these are tasks tied to a commit.
You can write some kind of wrapper that will pull tasks by WebHook, gitlab api allows this, another question is how you will determine which commit to pull tasks
