Slack
Your agent joins your Slack workspace as its own profile — not a bot. @mention it in any channel or DM it directly.
Slack
Your agent gets its own Slack profile. It is not a bot integration — it is a real workspace member. @mention it in any public or private channel and it replies in-thread. DM it and it responds like a coworker.
How it works
@mentions: In any channel your agent has been invited to, @mention it and it replies in the same thread.
DMs: Open a DM with your agent and message it directly. It keeps a full history of your DM conversation.
Memory: The agent knows what was discussed in each channel and thread it has participated in. It does not read channels it has not been invited to.
Setting up Slack
- Go to your agent's settings → Channels → Slack
- Click Connect Slack
- Sign in to your Slack workspace and authorize access
- The agent's profile will appear in your workspace
Once connected, invite the agent to any channel using the standard /invite @agentname command.
Use cases
- Internal support: Your team @mentions the agent for quick answers instead of interrupting each other.
- Client channels: Your agent joins a shared channel with a client and handles their questions.
- Handoffs: Team members DM the agent to update it or change its instructions mid-task.
