Triage support tickets daily and verify facts before replying

Gumroad runs a Hermes Agent that handles parts of daily operations. On a schedule it triages support tickets, checks the facts in internal admin and analytics tools, and replies, closes or escalates each one.

What they did

The agent runs on a dedicated Mac and is woken by scheduled jobs. For support it pulls tickets from the helpdesk, checks the customer's situation in admin and Metabase, then acts. It also keeps a daily finance-event ledger and prepares month-end journal entries, and when a ticket turns out to be a product bug it can file an issue or open a fix in the codebase. Corrections become dated policy rules every future session must read.

How it went

The company's page describes support, X replies, finance prep and engineering fixes all running as recurring jobs, with around 40 skills built up as repeated tasks became scripts.

Worth knowing

The page gives no ticket volumes or accuracy figures. Standalone posts need approval, journal entries go to humans for review, and sensitive risk decisions stay with people.
