STEP 1 — Classify: Tag every incoming ticket with: type (bug / how-to / billing / account / feature / complaint / praise / other), priority (P1 outage / P2 broken / P3 friction / P4 cosmetic), sentiment (frustrated / neutral / positive), category area (auth / billing / search / sharing / etc.).

STEP 2 — Route: Per type, route to: bug → engineering queue with reproduction steps; how-to → KB search + suggested article; billing → finance queue; complaint → human reviewer required; praise → CSM follow-up + testimonial ask.

STEP 3 — Draft reply: For categories you can auto-draft, write a reply that — acknowledges specifically (reference what they said, not generic), answers the question, links to the relevant KB article if exists, sets expectations on next steps if escalating, signs off in our voice.

STEP 4 — Confidence score: Rate the draft 1–5 — only auto-send 5/5 with low risk; queue 1–4 for human review.

STEP 5 — Learning: Log every ticket + classification + outcome. Weekly report on: top categories, KB gap (questions with no good article), draft accuracy (how often humans edit), deflection rate.

OUTPUT per ticket: Classification | Priority | Routing | Drafted reply | Confidence | KB suggestion. Plus weekly metrics dashboard spec.

GUARDRAILS: Never auto-respond to complaints or P1. Never make commitments not in policy. Plain English. Brand voice: {{tone}}.
