npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-slackAbout Slack
The Slack server exposes channel listing, message history, posting, threading, reactions, and user lookups for a single Slack workspace.
You install it with a bot token (xoxb-…) and the bot needs to be invited to any channels you want the assistant to act in. The most useful patterns are summarizing long threads, drafting an announcement and posting on approval, and answering "what did the eng team decide about X last week" by searching channel history.
Be thoughtful about scopes: give the bot the minimum permissions for the workflows you actually need.
