Connect a user's own AI Analyst Lab Slack identity through browser OAuth, store the personal user token locally, verify the workspace and target channel, and prepare one previewed Web API post. Use when the user asks to connect Slack, set up Slack, post to show-and-tell, or diagnose Slack.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Setup Slack

## Purpose

Connect the user's own Slack account to the AI Analyst Lab workspace. Use Slack's browser OAuth
flow for authorization and the repository's direct Web API helper for verification and posting.
Do not configure or search for a Slack MCP server.

## Course connection

- Authorization page: `https://slack-auth.shane-aea.workers.dev`
- Expected workspace: `AI Analyst Lab`
- Expected workspace id: `T0ACPJ21WRG`
- Expected public channel: `show-and-tell`
- Expected channel id: `C0ACN1QM0RL`
- Personal token environment variable: `SLACK_USER_TOKEN`

## Instructions

### 1. Prepare the local environment file

Confirm `.env` is ignored by Git. Preserve every existing variable. Add these non-secret values and
an empty token line if they are not already present:

```dotenv
SLACK_USER_TOKEN=
SLACK_WORKSPACE_NAME=AI Analyst Lab
SLACK_WORKSPACE_ID=T0ACPJ21WRG
SLACK_CHANNEL_NAME=show-and-tell
SLACK_CHANNEL_ID=C0ACN1QM0RL
```

Do not ask the user to paste the token into chat. Do not read, echo, or print its value.

### 2. Open browser authorization

Open the authorization page in the user's default browser. Tell the user to confirm that Slack shows
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ai-analyst-lab/ai-analyst/setup-slack@sha256:273dd2b6429f36c1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260917.f967737, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
