How would I add a trigger of the Solved in a custom automation? The idea is to post a new “custom” reply in the topic once any comment has been selected as solution.

That’s an interesting suggestion! I pulled it out into a new topic in our #Contribute > Feature category, for feature requests.
Can you tell us some more about your particular use case? What would your custom reply say, and why do you want it to be automatically added to every topic that has a solution selected? That sounds repetitive!
