Reply to a Help Scout conversation

by recued-core v1

Approval-gated Help Scout reply workflow. It reads the target conversation and thread history for context, then adds exactly one customer-visible reply or one internal note through recued-core.helpscout. It does not create conversations, update tags or custom fields, mutate customers or users, download or upload attachments, delete, bulk-mutates, run workflows, change inbox/admin settings, or call arbitrary Help Scout endpoints.
