Customers Email You at 11pm. They Don't Wait Until 9am Anymore.

说明与用途

在非工作时间自动回复客户邮件，使用FAQ内容，确保及时响应。

问题

Small founders struggle to respond to after‑hours customer emails, risking lost leads and poor customer experience.

结果

The after‑hours responder automatically replies to customer emails with relevant FAQ content, respects whitelists, prevents duplicate replies, and limits daily sends, improving response time without full AI integration.

工作流

• Configure IMAP/SMTP credentials in ~/.afterhours/
• Define off‑hours schedule and FAQ file in faq.yaml
• Set daily send cap and whitelist VIPs
• Run the script via cron every 10 minutes
• Use --dry-run to preview replies before enabling sending

证据

It knows when you're off the clock (including cross-midnight shifts — 22:00–06:00 counts as "after hours" even though it spans two dates)

--dry-run mode — preview exactly who would get what, before you let it send anything
