This type of “trigger on topics in category X that have not gotten any response after a day - check every 10 minutes” is not a trigger we have at the moment… we need to figure out how to add it to automation.

I added stalled trigger to AI scripts in [FEATURE: Add stalled\_topic trigger to AI automation scripts by xfalcox · Pull Request #37728 · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/37728).

When paired with `ai_tool_action` it can do many of the discussed workflows.
