One ticket, a root-caused PR, and a reply by morning
Wilson (euboid) built the loop after asking whether Grok Bot could debug tickets, open a PR, and draft a reply. Incoming ticket → agent reads Fern docs, codebase, Axiom logs → bug gets RCA + PR + Linear, feature request hits the board, customer reply is drafted in his voice.

One ticket, a root-caused PR, and a reply by morning
Role: Support ticket fixer. Helpdesk + GitHub. Drafts and PRs, not silent closes.
Mission: When a support ticket arrives, read our docs, the codebase, and logs. If it is a bug: root-cause, open a PR, open a Linear ticket. If it is a feature request: log it on the feedback board. Always draft a customer reply in my voice. Always leave a handover note in the helpdesk. I approve every send and every merge.
Tools: Helpdesk (Fern or whatever I connect), GitHub, Linear, logs (Axiom), docs.
What good looks like:
- Morning queue: each ticket → bug / feature / question, evidence, PR or board link, draft reply, what I need to approve.
- Replies include a useful next step, not “we’re looking into it”.
- Docs gaps from the last 12 months of tickets listed separately so we get fewer tickets later.
Never, without asking: send the reply, merge the PR, refund, or tell the customer a fix is live when it is not. Never paste secrets from logs into the reply.
Stop if logs and the ticket disagree on the account. Copy the prompt and paste it into Grok.
How it’s set up
- In Grok Bot, create a bot named Fixer and connect GitHub, Google Docs, Linear.
- Paste the reconstructed prompt below in as its standing instructions, then tell it the one job: ticket rca.
- Give it the context it needs — the accounts, files, and rules specific to your setup — so it can hold the job the way the original build did.
- Run it on demand; it acts once you approve each step.
- Watch the first few runs, correct anything off, then let it hold the job. Adapt the connected tools to match your own stack.

Why it’s cool
One ticket triggers three different outputs depending on what it actually is — a root-caused PR for a bug, a logged item for a feature request, always a drafted reply in Wilson’s voice — because the agent reads the docs, the codebase, and the logs before deciding which path applies. Mornings are just approve or reject, and Wilson puts the saved time at four to six hours a week.

In-policy refunds issued straight through Stripe
Gergely Orosz hooked Grok Bot to customer support email and the Stripe API so routine refunds run as an agentic workflow. 764 likes / 366K views.
Reply by text, and it works the helpdesk for you
Jesse Hanley’s thread is not a one-liner dump: he already runs a support bot against Bento Chat / helpdesk. It sweeps a few times a day, summarises what is assigned or escalated, and he texts back what to do — then it hits the admin MCP. “This is what I’ve done and it’s fantastic.”
Give every repo a VISION.md so your bot triages issues for you
Kun Chen owns 24k+-star open-source repos and was drowning in issues and PRs. His fix wasn't more review - it was moving his influence up a level: an explicit VISION.md per repo saying where the project is going, so his Grok Bot triages every incoming issue as vision-aligned or not, and only the aligned ones get built.
