Slack Integration

Slack Integration

For teams already on Slack, you can use Slack channels instead of Telegram for agent communication.

Setup

1. Create a Slack App

Go to api.slack.com/apps and create a new app:

• Choose “From scratch”
• Name it (e.g., “Moe’s Research Agent”)
• Select your workspace

2. Configure Permissions

Under OAuth & Permissions, add these bot token scopes:

• chat:write — send messages
• channels:read — see channel info
• channels:history — read channel messages
• files:write — upload screenshots and reports

3. Install to Workspace

Install the app and copy the Bot User OAuth Token.

4. Create Channels

Create dedicated channels for agent communication:

• #moes-research
• #moes-qa
• #moes-ops

Invite your agent bots to each channel.

5. Configure Your Agent

Add the Slack bot token to your agent’s configuration during onboarding.

Telegram vs Slack

Feature	Telegram	Slack
Cost	Free	Free (limited history) or paid
Topics/Threads	Native topics	Threads (less organized)
Bot creation	BotFather (instant)	App creation (more steps)
Mobile experience	Excellent	Good
Enterprise features	Limited	SSO, compliance, retention
Search	Good	Better (with paid plan)

Recommendation: Use Telegram for small teams and personal use. Use Slack for enterprise teams that already have Slack.
