Intercom scales multi-agent engineering workflows with Augment Code

After trying Cursor and multiple LLM coding tools, Intercom adopted Augment Code to enable parallel agent workflows, accelerate large feature builds, and give engineers a trusted way to offload the repetitive details of coding—without sacrificing quality. I didn’t use AI at all until agentic workflows arrived—then everything changed.” To make agents practical, Intercom needed one thing above all: reliable context management.

Why it matters

Support is repetitive and time-sensitive. Agents can draft answers, look things up and handle simple requests, so people can focus on the tricky ones. It is one of 554 sightings filed under Customer Support on Agent Sightings (number 439 by interest), and one of 8 involving Augment.

How you could try it

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Augment or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

I want an agent to handle routine customer questions end to end, and pass anything unclear to a person. The tool in the source case was Augment.

Saved

Tip: Start small: run it once on a low-stakes example, read what the agent did, and only then let it run on real work.
