Auto-Update Docs from Support Questions

When the same support question appears three times, Zero drafts a docs update and files a PR so the next person finds the answer before asking.

What the problem is

Every support channel has five or six questions that never die, not because the product is confusing, but because the docs don't mention them. Manually tracking those threads, drafting updates, and pushing PRs is the kind of work that always slips. Docs Auto-Update watches your support channels, counts recurring questions, and the moment a question has been asked three or more times by different people, it drafts a docs update and files a PR. A reviewer spends two minutes approving. The next person who has the same question finds the answer instead of asking.

How Zero fixes it

Step 1: Connect your tools

Slack

Required

Slack. Zero reads your support channels to detect recurring questions. Read access to the channels you name is required.

Connect

GitHub

Required

GitHub. Zero drafts docs updates as PRs against your website repo. Repo write access required so Zero can create branches and open PRs.

Connect

Notion

Optional

Notion. Optional. Useful if your internal docs live in Notion and you want Zero to update those too.

Connect

Step 2: Ask Zero

@Zero every week, scan #support and #community for questions that were asked by 3+ different people over the last 14 days. For each, draft a docs update and open a PR against the website repo with the change.

Zero watches your support channels for recurring questions

Zero reads incoming support threads, semantically clusters similar questions, and counts unique askers. Questions from 3+ distinct users in a rolling window get flagged as documentation gaps.

Zero drafts a docs update based on the resolved answers

For each flagged question, Zero reads the thread's resolution, identifies the right docs location (existing section or new guide), and drafts the update in your site's markdown format with concrete examples.

Zero files a PR for review

Each draft lands as a PR in your website repo, with the triggering question threads linked in the description. A reviewer from the docs team approves; you don't write from scratch.

Step 3: Take it further

Route to the right reviewer

Assign PRs to the component owner instead of a generic reviewer.

@Zero when drafting docs for a billing question, tag @billing-team on the PR instead of @docs-team.

Auto-publish low-risk updates

Let typo fixes and small clarifications ship without human review.

@Zero for docs PRs under 50 lines that only touch existing sections, enable auto-merge once CI passes.

Expand coverage

Add new source channels for signal.

@Zero also scan the support Gmail inbox for recurring questions, not just Slack.

Tips for better results

●Set the 'recurring' threshold at 3 unique askers in 14 days, not 1. At 1 you're just rewriting docs every day; at 3 you're catching real gaps.

●Always include the source threads in the PR description. Reviewers can see the original questions and judge whether the draft actually answers them.

●Pair with KB Capture so resolved threads flow into your internal knowledge base in parallel.
