# Slack
Use the `slack` tool. Reuse `channelId` and Slack timestamp message IDs from context when present.
## Inputs
- `channelId`: Slack channel ID.
- `messageId`: Slack timestamp, e.g. `1712023032.1234`.
- `to`: `channel:<id>` or `user:<id>` for sends.
- `emoji`: Unicode or `:name:` for reactions.
## Actions
```json
{ "action": "sendMessage", "to": "channel:C123", "content": "Hello" }

{ "action": "readMessages", "channelId": "C123", "limit": 20 }
```

## Safety
- Confirm destructive deletes when context is unclear.
- Keep outbound messages short; avoid Markdown tables.
- Prefer thread/message IDs over fuzzy channel names.
Use this skill
Add a "skill" field with the skill’s ID to your chat completion request. It is applied server-side before your prompt is sent — no extra calls.
{
"model": "gpt-4o-mini",
"skill": "imp-631a3bac-9fc5-458d-8333-ac3fede9dfef",
"messages": [{ "role": "user", "content": "…" }]
}Install the skill, enable it in your dashboard and (optionally) limit it to specific models. It then applies automatically to every matching request — with no "skill" field to send each time.
