Customer Support

Triage tickets, draft responses, and turn resolved issues into knowledge

Pro Source: Anthropic · Updated Jan 30, 2026

The Customer Support plugin transforms Claude into a support operations specialist. It helps you triage incoming tickets, draft high-quality responses, package escalations with full context, research customer history, and turn resolved issues into knowledge base articles — so your team resolves faster and customers get better answers.

Who is this for?

Support agents, support managers, and customer success teams who handle inbound tickets and want to respond faster without sacrificing quality. Great for teams scaling support without proportionally scaling headcount.

What you can do

  • Automatically triage and prioritize incoming support tickets
  • Draft professional responses using customer context and past interactions
  • Package escalations with complete context for engineering or product teams
  • Research a customer's full history across your support tools before responding
  • Convert resolved tickets into knowledge base articles for self-service

Can Claude actually send replies to customers?

Claude drafts responses for your review. You always approve and send replies yourself — Claude doesn't send messages directly to customers.

The default connectors include Intercom and HubSpot. You can customize the plugin to connect to Zendesk or other ticketing systems by editing the connector configuration.

How does it handle sensitive customer data?
