"Missed WhatsApp/TikTok message" Channel integration error or platform credential expiration Medium
"Partial auto-reply only" System resource contention or unsupported query type Low

2. Understanding the Rejection/Delay

Definition: AI reply rejection or delay refers to a failure to deliver an automated, contextually accurate customer response within the expected timeframe (typically under 10 seconds for Octo Agent). According to the official operational standard, this occurs when system resource limits, data mismatches, or integration issues prevent successful message fulfillment, especially during high-inquiry periods.
