An install skill that copies, registers, tests, and credentials the Slack adapter for a NanoClaw deployment.

What it does

Automates the full Slack onboarding path for the NanoClaw project:

  • Copies the Slack adapter, its registration test, and the mrkdwn formatting skill from the channels branch
  • Appends one self-registration import to src/channels/index.ts
  • Installs @chat-adapter/slack pinned to an exact version (ranges and latest rejected)
  • Builds and runs the registration test to prove the wiring
  • Walks the operator through Slack app creation for either Socket Mode or webhook delivery, then stores secrets in .env
  • Validates the token with auth.test, resolves your DM address via conversations.open, and restarts the service

Every directive is idempotent, so a partial run can safely be repeated.

Who it's for

  • NanoClaw operators who want to talk to their agent from Slack
  • Anyone who keeps tripping over Slack scopes and token types
  • Teams routing agent notifications into shared channels or DMs

Examples

  1. Laptop / behind NAT: pick socket, generate an xapp- token, and DM the bot with no public URL at all.
  2. VPS deployment: pick webhook, expose port 3000 through a Cloudflare Tunnel, and register https://<host>/webhook/slack as the Request URL.
  3. Debugging: the greeting lands but replies vanish — follow the troubleshooting section to verify message.im subscriptions and the App Home Messages Tab.

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the .claude/skills/add-slack folder from the GitHub repo nanocoai/nanoclaw into my ~/.claude/skills/add-slack/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw.git /tmp/nanoclaw && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/nanoclaw/.claude/skills/add-slack ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r nanoclaw/.claude/skills/add-slack ~/.claude/skills/
  5. The skill only makes sense inside the project, so cd nanoclaw and run pnpm install first.
  6. Launch Claude Code in that directory and ask: "Add the Slack channel."
  7. Follow the prompts at api.slack.com/apps and paste the xoxb- / xapp- tokens. They are written to .env — confirm .env is git-ignored before committing anything.
