Slack

Communication

Neotask brings autonomous intelligence to every Slack channel — send messages, search conversations, manage canvases, and operate your workspace through OpenClaw.

What You Can Do

The Slack integration provides 13 actions covering messaging, search, canvas management, and profiles:

Messaging

  • Send messages to any channel or DM
  • Draft messages for review before sending
  • Read channel history and specific threads for context

    • Search

  • Search public channels for messages and files
  • Search public and private channels (with consent) for comprehensive results
  • Find users by name, email, or role
  • Discover channels by name or topic

    • Canvases

  • Create canvases for shared documentation, meeting notes, or runbooks
  • Read existing canvas content
  • Update canvases with new information

    • Profiles

  • Read user profiles for contact information and team details

    • Every action runs autonomously or requires your approval — you decide.

    Try Asking

  • "Post the daily standup summary to the engineering channel"
  • "Search Slack for any messages about the Q2 pricing change"
  • "Create a canvas called 'Incident Runbook' with our emergency response steps"
  • "What was discussed in the product-feedback channel yesterday?"
  • "Send a DM to Maria asking if the design review is ready"
  • "Find all messages mentioning 'budget' in the leadership channel this month"
  • "Who is in the customer-success channel?"
  • "Read the thread on the outage discussion from Monday"

    • Pro Tips

  • Use approval gates on message sending so outbound communications get reviewed before reaching channels — especially useful for company-wide announcements.
  • Combine Slack with your CRM in an app group so deal updates automatically post to the relevant sales channel.
  • Schedule recurring messages through automations for daily standups, weekly metrics, or monthly reviews.
  • Canvases are perfect for living documents that agents update continuously — project trackers, on-call rosters, or FAQ pages.
  • Multi-agent teams can monitor multiple channels simultaneously and route important messages to the right people.
  • Draft mode lets agents compose messages that humans review before sending — ideal for customer-facing channels.
