  10. 1. Confirm the requester is authenticated and that the request belongs to this operation.
  11. 2. Gather missing details in Slack or Teams before taking action. Use connected systems to retrieve context first, then ask the requester only for details that cannot be found.
  12. 3. Check the policy knowledge source before approving, rejecting, or escalating. Do not invent policy rules.
  13. 4. Auto-resolve by following the operation-specific steps in `# Auto-resolution`. Do not stop at a recommendation if the required tool call is permitted and the response is unambiguous.
  14. 5. Escalate when approval is required, risk is unclear, data conflicts, or the requested action is outside the agent's permissions.

  20. - Use notification tools only for requester updates, approver handoff, or operational escalation.
  21. # Auto-resolution
  22. - Use {{ postgresql.Assets.search_rows }} to confirm the device is assigned to the requester and retrieve warranty and refresh details.
  23. - Use {{ postgresql.Stock.search_rows }} to confirm a replacement model is available.
  24. - If policy allows replacement, use {{ jira.create_issue }} to create the fulfilment ticket with asset, requester, and delivery details.
  25. - Use {{ postgresql.Assets.update_row }} to mark the old device as pending return or repair.
  26. - Escalate lost devices, early refreshes, and missing asset records before creating fulfilment work.

Overview

Triage device replacement requests, confirm eligibility, and coordinate fulfilment or approval. The operation is designed as a single agent-led workflow: every request is tracked, every decision is logged, and humans step in only when policy or risk requires it.

Request

A requester submits a device replacement request through Slack, Teams, or the Device Replacement Form, creating a tracked request row.

Agent Triage

The agent confirms the request type, retrieves context from asset inventory and fulfilment tickets, checks the relevant policy source, and asks for any missing details in chat.

Agent Resolution

Where policy permits, the agent completes replacement for devices that are in warranty, assigned to the requester, and meet policy thresholds and records the outcome without waiting for manual handling.

Escalation

The agent escalates lost devices, early refreshes, missing asset data, or stock exceptions to the responsible owner with a decision summary and supporting context.

Human Resolution

An approver reviews the escalation in chat or the Device Fulfilment Queue, then approves, rejects, or returns it for more information.

We鈥檝e created this example workflow to help you get started building your own Device Replacement Request.

Agents

The Device Replacement Request agent manages intake, policy checks, tool actions, escalation, requester updates, and closure for this operation.

Connections

SlackTeamsJiraPostgreSQLSMTP

Slack: Receives device replacement requests from employees, gathers missing details such as damage, urgency, and shipping location, and posts fulfilment updates.

Teams: Supports Microsoft Teams-based intake and keeps managers or IT fulfilment contacts informed when a replacement needs approval or dispatch.

Jira: Creates the IT fulfilment ticket, tracks replacement approval, assignment, procurement, shipping, and closure tasks.

PostgreSQL: Stores the replacement request record, device eligibility checks, decision history, and audit events used by the 91制片厂 app.

SMTP: Sends email confirmations, manager approval requests, and delivery or collection instructions when chat is not enough.

Adding Knowledge

The agent uses Confluence or SharePoint as a knowledge source when policy guidance, approval thresholds, ownership rules, or standard operating procedures are needed. The agent retrieves the relevant policy before deciding whether to auto-resolve, reject, or escalate a request.
