Automatic closing/merging of duplicate conversations

I was looking at functionality which points out and flags potential duplicate conversations and I was wondering if it was possible to either..

  1. Extend its existing functionality to do other arbitrary things (like tagging/closing conversations, sending webhooks, etc..). Maybe Intercom provides an interface or API to do this though I haven’t seen it.
  2. Reproduce this duplicate conversation flagging behavior without necessarily having direct access to Intercom’s own implementation (unless Intercom is willing to provide access to this). I’m guessing there might be a set of APIs that could make this possible but using them might introduce delays in the system that could result in unattended side-effects/race conditions.
