Chat SDK is now available, the universal chat layer for building bots and agents. Build your Slack agent with the Slack adapter now or follow the guide.
The Slack Agent Skill is now available, enabling developers to build and deploy Slack agents in a single session with their coding agent of choice.
The skill handles the complexity of OAuth configuration, webhook handlers, event subscriptions, and deployment so you can focus on what your agent should do rather than on infrastructure setup.
The wizard walks through five stages:
Project setup: Choose your LLM provider and initialize from the Slack Agent Template
Slack app creation: Generate a customized app manifest and create the app in Slack's console
Environment configuration: Set up signing secrets, bot tokens, and API keys with validation
Local testing: Run locally with ngrok and verify the integration
Production deployment: Deploy to Vercel with environment variables configured automatically
Install the skill and run the wizard by invoking it in your coding agent (for example, /slack-agent new in Claude Code).

Try the skill to make your custom agent or use the Slack Agent Template to deploy right away and customize later.
