What it does

Adds smart triage in front of the answering bot. Not every question should be auto-answered — billing disputes, outages, and security concerns need a human fast. This flow reads intent and urgency first, deflects routine FAQs with Intercom content, and fast-tracks sensitive issues into Front with the right priority tag.

When to use it

Use it when your Discord channel mixes easy how-to questions with high-stakes ones you don't want an AI guessing at. The classifier keeps low-risk volume off your team while guaranteeing urgent or sensitive topics reach Front immediately.

How it works

  1. 1A new message in the Discord support channel triggers the flow.
  2. 2OpenAI classifies the message by intent and urgency (FAQ, billing, outage, security, other).
  3. 3A logic step routes: routine FAQs go down the self-serve path; sensitive or urgent types skip straight to escalation.
  4. 4For FAQs, the bot searches Intercom articles and posts a cited answer in Discord.
  5. 5For urgent/sensitive types, a Front conversation is opened immediately with a priority tag and the classified reason.
  6. 6Either way the user gets an acknowledgment in Discord so they know what's happening next.
