Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is uv run python 00-system/skills/slack/slack-master/scripts/setup_slack.py.

Good fit It helps start Slack actions such as sending messages, listing channels, searching messages, and finding users.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

slack-connect 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 8d 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.

Slack Connect

Entry point for all Slack operations. Validates configuration, discovers workspace, and routes requests to appropriate skills.

Trigger Phrases

Load this skill when user says:

  • "slack" / "connect slack" / "slack connect"
  • "send slack message" / "message [channel]"
  • "list slack channels" / "slack channels"
  • "search slack" / "find in slack"
  • "slack users" / "who's on slack"
  • Any reference to Slack operations

Quick Reference

First-time setup:

uv run python 00-system/skills/slack/slack-master/scripts/setup_slack.py

Check configuration:

uv run python 00-system/skills/slack/slack-master/scripts/check_slack_config.py --json

Workflow

Step 1: Validate Configuration

Always run first:

uv run python 00-system/skills/slack/slack-master/scripts/check_slack_config.py --json

If ai_action is proceed_with_operation:

  • Continue to Step 2

If ai_action is run_oauth_setup:

  1. Tell user: "Slack needs to be set up. Let me guide you through authorization."
  2. Run: python 00-system/skills/slack/slack-master/scripts/setup_slack.py
  3. After setup, re-check config

If ai_action is create_slack_app:

  1. Guide user through creating a Slack App
  2. Load: slack-master/references/setup-guide.md
  3. After app created, run setup wizard

Step 2: Identify User Intent

Parse what the user wants to do:

User Says Route To
"send message to #general" Messaging → send_message.py
"list channels" Channels → list_channels.py
"get messages from #dev" Channels → channel_history.py
"search for 'project update'" Search → search_messages.py
"list users" Users → list_users.py
"upload file" Files → upload_file.py
"add reaction" Reactions → (see Phase 7)
"pin message" Pins → (see Phase 9)
"set reminder" Reminders → (see Phase 10)

Step 3: Execute Operation

Use the appropriate script from slack-master/scripts/:

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.
