Operations, marketing, and automation teams
Where they talk
- r/AI_Agents
- r/n8n
- r/SocialMediaManagers
- r/automation
- r/AskMarketing
- r/mcp
- r/managers
- r/hermesagent
Tools they use today
- Slack
- n8n
- Microsoft Teams
- Claude Code
- GitHub
- MCP
Why those fall short
- No incentive or system to expedite approvals
- Feedback is about taste, not performance; evidence from other accounts dismissed
- no bypass option; approval restriction blocks urgent changes
- requirements live as tribal knowledge, never documented in a brief
- Slack times out; Wait nodes sketchy; review table needs syncing
