A developer built an AI support agent using n8n that successfully answered 9 out of 12 real support tickets by strictly adhering to a knowledge base. The agent's core rule was that every reply must cite an entry from the knowledge base; if no citation was possible, the ticket was escalated to a human. This approach prevented the AI from inventing information or making policy decisions outside its defined scope. The three escalated tickets involved customer demands beyond policy, discount requests, and feature requests, all of which were deemed correct escalations by the developer. AI
