Show HN: Slack CLI for Agents
Our team lives in Slack, but we don't have access to the Slack MCP
and couldn't find anything out there that worked for us, so we
coded our own agent-slack CLI * Can paste in Slack
URLs * Token efficient * Zero-config (auto auth if you
use Slack Desktop) Auto downloads files/snippets. Also can
read Slack canvases as markdown! MIT License
