COMMUNITY KNOWLEDGE SUPPORT · Workflow idea

Help members explore routine questions while keeping sensitive issues with moderators.

For a community that has been told how messages may be handled, prepare concise answers to member questions in a designated discussion space. Keep the audience and saved history limited, disclose the assistant’s role, and do not treat an answer as authoritative when evidence is missing. Route safety, moderation, account, or other consequential matters to a trained person, and provide a way to report or correct a response.

    Use only information appropriate for the community and its members.

  3. Prepare a brief, bounded response

    State uncertainty and avoid unsupported directions or private disclosures.

  4. Escalate sensitive or safety-related issues

    Route moderation, account, and urgent concerns to a trained moderator.

  5. Review history and response feedback

    Let moderators correct errors and remove conversation records under policy.

The handoff

A concise threaded response with uncertainty and moderator follow-up made clear.

Keep in mind

Persistent discussion history can contain personal or confidential information, and a fluent response can still be wrong. Explain what is retained, restrict access, set short retention, filter unsafe topics, and direct moderation, safety, and high-impact questions to people.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Publish clear notice and usage boundaries

Tell members what the assistant can address and what information is stored.

Restrict conversation history and retention

Keep access narrow and remove saved data on a documented schedule.

Set moderation and escalation routes

Make a human contact available for safety, privacy, and unresolved questions.

Review response quality regularly

Sample answers, accept corrections, and pause use when safeguards fail.
