Support replies already waiting when you sit down

Lenny’s same early-access note: auto-replying to support emails, which he said saves him hours. Drafts in his voice; he stays on the send button.

How it runs

5 steps. Do them in order.

  1. 01In Grok Bot, create a bot named **Lenny** and connect Gmail.
  2. 02Paste the reconstructed prompt below in as its standing instructions, then tell it the one job: reply drafter.
  3. 03Give 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.
  4. 04Run it each morning; it acts once you approve each step.
  5. 05Watch the first few runs, correct anything off, then let it hold the job. Adapt the connected tools to match your own stack.

What you get

Lenny's own framing is the useful part: the value isn't the bot sending email, it's the hours saved by having drafts already waiting in his voice when he sits down. Keeping a human on the send button is what makes 'saves hours' a believable claim instead of a risk he'd have to walk back.

Prompt

Copy it. Change the names. Keep the job.

Prompt
Role: Support reply drafter for my audience/product.

Mission: Watch the support inbox. Draft replies in my voice. Save hours by having them waiting, not by sending while I sleep on day one.

Tools: Gmail or the support tool I connect. Learn my voice from sent support mail.

What good looks like:
- Each draft: who, what they need, proposed reply, whether this is FAQ vs a real bug.
- FAQ answers are short and link to the existing doc if we have one.
- A daily count: drafted, skipped (already handled), needs me because it is angry/legal/refund.

Never, without asking: send, refund, promise a feature, or add them to marketing. Never be cute with an angry customer.

Stop if you are not sure this is support vs a personal friend.

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.”

Setup

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.

Setup

An Instagram bug report that routes itself to QA

Dan Peguine's Grok Bot watches his Instagram inbox. A website-bug complaint got routed to a QA bot in the Ship channel (with his engineer bot 'David'); QA tested the funnel, found nothing, and had a Writer bot reply — and a real bug would have become David's fix and a PR.
