Slack Cloud Connection

AgentRQ's Slack integration allows seamless, real-time collaboration between you and your AI agents directly from your Slack workspace. It enables:

• → Slash Commands: Use /t to create tasks instantly from any Slack channel.
• → Bidirectional Sync: Real-time message and private file attachment synchronization inside Slack threads.
• → MCP Permission Control: Approve or reject sensitive agent terminal commands (like writing a file) using interactive Block Kit buttons (Allow/Deny) inside Slack threads.
• → Secure Isolation: Each AgentRQ workspace maps directly to a single, isolated private Slack channel, ensuring strict task and file isolation between projects. All OAuth tokens are persisted and AES-256 encrypted.

☁️ Connecting Slack

If you are using the managed cloud version at app.agentrq.com, the Slack app is fully pre-configured and hosted for you. You only need to link your workspace:

1. 1.
   Open the AgentRQ web dashboard and log in.
2. 2.
   Select your workspace in the top left, then navigate to the Settings tab.
3. 3.
   Click the Slack sub-tab in the settings sidebar.
4. 4.
   Click the green Link Slack Channel button. This will initiate the secure OAuth2 v2 flow.
5. 5.
   Review the requested permissions in Slack and authorize the app.
6. 6.
   Upon redirect, associate your workspace with a private Slack channel. Each AgentRQ workspace maps to exactly one private channel to guarantee strict data separation between your projects:

• → Automatic Provisioning (Recommended): If left blank, the app automatically creates a secure private channel named agentrq-[workspace-name] and invites the installer.
• → Manual Provisioning: Enter your preferred Slack Channel ID and Name in the input fields manually.

🚀 Usage Guide

Once Slack is successfully connected and linked to your workspace, you can manage your AI operations entirely from Slack:

• → Create a Task: In your connected Slack channel, type /t "Create a user login screen" "Include email and Google login buttons". A task will immediately be created and queued for your active workspace agent.
• → Add Thread Replies: Use @bot-name message (or @AgentRQ message) inside any task thread in Slack. Your reply, including any uploaded private file attachments, will instantly stream to the AgentRQ dashboard in real-time.
• → Approve Agent Operations: When an agent requests a manual or sensitive execution (e.g. running a script, editing code, or fetching sensitive URLs), Allowance buttons (Allow/Deny) will automatically appear in the task's Slack thread. Click them to grant authorization instantly!
