/slack-channel:configure
Overview
Configure the Slack channel MCP plugin by providing your Slack bot token and app-level token. Writes credentials to a secure .env file with owner-only permissions.
Prerequisites
- A Slack app created at api.slack.com/apps with Socket Mode enabled
- A Bot User OAuth Token (
xoxb-...) from OAuth & Permissions - An App-Level Token (
xapp-...) from Socket Mode settings - Write access to
~/.claude/channels/slack/
Usage
/slack-channel:configure <xoxb-bot-token> <xapp-app-token>
Instructions
-
Parse the two arguments from
$ARGUMENTS:- First token must start with
xoxb-(Bot User OAuth Token) - Second token must start with
xapp-(App-Level Token)
- First token must start with
-
If either token is missing or has the wrong prefix, show this error and stop:
Error: Two tokens required. - Bot token (starts with xoxb-) from OAuth & Permissions - App token (starts with xapp-) from Socket Mode settings Usage: /slack-channel:configure xoxb-... xapp-... -
Create the state directory if it doesn't exist:
~/.claude/channels/slack/ -
Write the
.envfile at~/.claude/channels/slack/.env:SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=<bot-token> SLACK_APP_TOKEN=<app-token> -
Set file permissions to owner-only:
chmod 600 ~/.claude/channels/slack/.env -
Confirm success:
Slack channel configured. Start Claude with the Slack channel: claude --channels plugin:slack-channel@claude-code-plugins Or for development: claude --dangerously-load-development-channels server:slack
Security
- Never echo the tokens back in the confirmation message
- Never log tokens to stdout or any file other than
.env - Always set 0o600 permissions on the
.envfile
Output
On success, displays:
Slack channel configured.
Start Claude with the Slack channel:
claude --channels plugin:slack-channel@claude-code-plugins
On validation failure, displays the error with correct usage syntax.
