find-discussions

find-discussions is a command for coding agents from slackapi/slack-skills-plugin. It costs 9 tokens per session (205 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that searches Slack conversations about a chosen topic across channels and reads relevant message threads. A thread is a message together with its replies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find the most relevant discussions, summarize them, identify participants and dates, and highlight decisions or open questions.
Why use it?
It helps find the full context behind discussions instead of returning isolated messages or forcing a manual search through channels.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

find-discussions scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Given the topic provided in $ARGUMENTS:

  1. Use the slack_search_public tool to search for messages matching the topic. Use the topic as a natural language question first for semantic results.
  2. If semantic results are sparse, follow up with a keyword search using key terms from the topic.
  3. For the most relevant results, use slack_read_thread to fetch full thread conversations so you capture the complete discussion context.
  4. Present the results organized by relevance:
    • For each discussion found, show: the channel name, who started it, a brief summary of the conversation, and the date.
    • Group related discussions together if they span multiple channels.
    • Highlight any conclusions, decisions, or unresolved questions.
  5. Limit output to the top 5-10 most relevant discussions to keep results manageable.
  6. If no results are found, suggest alternative search terms or broader queries the user could try.
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
