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

install scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

compatibility: Requires a current Claude Code build with Channels support and either claude.ai or Anthropic Console authentication, Bun >= 1.0 (Node.js fallback supported), and a Slack workspace where you can create apps

/slack-channel:install

Overview

Run the CCSC lifecycle from fresh installation through safe teardown. With no argument, execute the complete install walkthrough.

Mode Purpose
install Complete fresh-install walkthrough (default)
doctor Read-only health check
verify Slack-to-Claude-to-Slack round trip
repair Repair only deterministic local findings
manifest Write an importable Slack app manifest
reset Archive access/session state and pair again
tour Explain the product without changing anything
uninstall Archive local state and explain Slack revocation

Delegate token storage to /slack-channel:configure and pairing to /slack-channel:access pair. Do not duplicate those security-sensitive flows.

Prerequisites

Before installation, verify:

  1. Runtime: Bun 1.0 or newer. Node.js 20+ and Docker 24+ are documented fallbacks.
  2. Claude Code: use a current build whose claude --help includes --channels.
  3. Anthropic authentication: use either a claude.ai account or an Anthropic Console API key. Team and Enterprise organizations must enable Channels. Bedrock, Google Cloud Agent Platform, and Microsoft Foundry are unsupported for Channels.
  4. Slack: use a workspace where the operator may create and install apps.

Run command -v and version/help checks without modifying the machine. Read references/prerequisites.md for exact checks and fallback paths. doctor and repair additionally require curl and jq.

Authentication

Keep the two authentication layers separate:

  • Claude Code: authenticate through claude.ai or Anthropic Console. For Team and Enterprise, confirm an Owner enabled Channels or deployed channelsEnabled: true.
  • Slack: use a Bot User OAuth Token (xoxb-...) and an app-level token (xapp-...) with connections:write. Store both only through /slack-channel:configure; never print or commit them.

What ships with it

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.
