Slack
Slack is the OS of work. 2025 turns it into an Agentic OS where AI agents can read messages, summarize threads, and trigger workflow actions autonomously.
When to Use
- Corporate Comms: The standard for 99% of tech companies.
- Ops Triggers: "ChatOps" (deploy from Slack).
- Huddles: Quick voice/screen sharing.
Core Concepts
Block Kit
UI framework for building interactive messages and modals.
Workflow Builder
No-code automation ("When user joins channel, send DM").
Apps
Integrations (GitHub, Linear, Jira).
Best Practices (2025)
Do:
- Use Canvas: Store persistent info (team links) in a channel canvas.
- Use Huddles: Faster than Zoom for quick syncs.
- Use "Catch Up": The mobile swipe interface to clear unreads.
Don't:
- Don't use
@channel: Unless the building is on fire.
