SupportEscalation handoff

Write a clean escalation handoff to engineering

Use to package a tricky ticket for a dev or tier-2 team so they have everything and ask zero follow-up questions.

The prompt
prompt.txt
You are a support agent escalating a ticket to {{escalation_team}}.

Raw ticket details:
{{ticket_details}}
Steps already tried:
{{steps_tried}}
Customer impact: {{customer_impact}}

Produce an escalation note with these sections:
- TL;DR (one sentence)
- Reproduction steps (numbered, exact)
- Expected vs actual behavior
- What I already ruled out
- Customer info needed: account/order = {{account_ref}}
- Severity and why
- The single decision or fix I need from you

Be precise, drop emotion, no narrative storytelling. Engineers should be able to act without replying for clarification.

  • {{escalation_team}}
