Direct answer
AI support should prepare the work, not own the outcome.
How should high-risk support cases be escalated without losing evidence?
For open-source SaaS maintainers, high-risk escalations need project-specific policy, source coverage, tone review, and a clear approval record. Tier-0 can classify the request, summarize the thread, retrieve approved knowledge, draft a reply, and route escalation context. It should not send or perform sensitive customer-facing side effects without human approval.

Limits
No unsupported promises.
AI prepares support work; customer-facing replies still require review and approval.
Tier-0 is not a mailbox host, custom SMTP provider, cold outreach platform, CRM replacement, or enterprise ticketing suite.
Refunds, cancellations, account changes, password resets, legal conclusions, and destructive actions stay outside autonomous model control.
Source citations depend on approved project knowledge. Missing sources should create review work, not invented answers.
