Script Pylon issue management

Run `list_issues` inside your shell to pipe ticket data into other CLI tools. This allows you to build custom monitoring for your support backlog. It works in CI/CD environments or local scripts. You get raw data output that integrates with your existing terminal workflow.

Automate Pylon ticket replies

Use `reply_to_issue` to send automated updates from your terminal. This is ideal for status notifications or acknowledging incoming support requests. It removes the need for a GUI during routine tasks. You stay in the CLI and keep your support loop moving.

Retrieve account details in CLI

Fetch customer metadata with `get_account` to verify subscription tiers before you merge a patch. This ensures you prioritize the right tickets. It provides instant access to your CRM data. You make informed decisions based on live account information.
