When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it when a large share of tickets are repeat questions that your knowledge base already answers, and human agents spend their mornings on them.
  • Use it when the Customer Agent is already live on the channel and you have read a sample of its answers. This spec decides which tickets it gets, not how well it answers.

Skip it

  • Do not use it for billing disputes, cancellations, legal or security topics. Step 1 screens these out, and the list in the prompt must match your own risk topics.
  • Do not use it without staffed human coverage during the hours the workflow runs. An escalation to an empty queue is worse than no agent.
