Agent Action

Use slack-messages for agent-facing Slack reads. Do not call /api/slack/* directly from the agent.

Mode	Args	Description
`team`	`workspace`	Get workspace info
`channels`	`workspace`	List channels
`history`	`workspace`, `channel`, `limit`, `cursor`	Read channel history
`multi-history`	`workspace`, `channels`, `names`, `limit`, `cursors`	Read multiple channels
`search`	`workspace`, `query`	Search messages

Key Patterns & Gotchas

Two workspaces supported via workspace parameter ("primary" / "secondary")
getChannelHistory auto-joins channels on "not_in_channel" error, then retries — requires channels:join scope
If auto-join fails, throws a detailed message explaining how to invite the bot
searchMessages may require user token; bot token tried first
listChannels paginates via cursor; only first page is cached
getUserInfo resolves bots via getBotInfo when needed
