Runbook-Grounded First-Reply Drafter for Zendesk Tickets
On each new support ticket, drafts a cited reply from your runbook corpus and either auto-suggests it to the agent or escalates when documentation does not cover the issue.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

- ActionRetrieve matching runbook passagesPostgres
- LogicIf no coverage, tag 'needs-human' and stop
- ActionDraft cited first reply from sourcesOpenAI
- OutputAttach draft and citations as internal Zendesk noteZendesk
What it does
Reads every incoming Zendesk ticket, retrieves the matching procedures from your Confluence and Drive runbooks, and writes a draft first reply grounded only in those sources with citations attached as an internal note. Tickets with no supporting documentation are tagged for human triage instead of receiving a fabricated answer.
When to use it
Use it on a support queue where many tickets map to documented procedures (password resets, plan changes, known errors). It shortens first-response time while keeping a clear paper trail from the reply back to the source doc.
How it works
- 1A new Zendesk ticket triggers the flow.
- 2The ticket subject and body are embedded and matched against the runbook index in Postgres.
- 3A logic branch checks coverage: if nothing relevant is found, the ticket is tagged 'needs-human' and the flow ends.
- 4OpenAI drafts a reply restricted to the retrieved passages, listing each citation.
- 5The draft and its citations are attached to the ticket as a private agent note for review and send.
