# Slack

- DMs and `@mentions` flow into the same conversation pipeline as web chat — each thread appears in Studio with a blue **SLACK** badge.
- Channel posts only trigger the bot when it's explicitly tagged, so it never butts in on unrelated discussions.
- Setup: create an OAuth app from a manifest at `api.slack.com`, install it to a workspace, then paste the App ID, Signing Secret, and Bot Token into Studio.
- Friday's bundled tunnel provides the public HTTPS URL Slack uses for event verification and delivery.
- For headless deployments, credentials can also be set via `workspace.yml` or environment variables.
