slack-community-check

description

Check if a Warp user is an active member of the Warp Community Slack workspace. Use when investigating a ban appeal to determine if the user has recent posting activity (last 90 days) in the community — a strong signal of legitimate developer engagement. All Slack API logic runs in a deterministic script; the agent reads only the JSON result and never calls Slack APIs directly, reads message text, or joins channels. Part of the fraud-bot skill suite.

Slack Community Check

Determine whether a user is an active member of the Warp Community Slack workspace. All Slack API logic runs in a deterministic script — the agent never calls Slack APIs directly, reads message content, or joins channels.

Run the script

python3 /workspace/fraud-bot/scripts/check_slack_community_activity.py \
  --email <EMAIL> \
  --lookback-days 90

The script prints a single JSON object to stdout. Parse only that JSON — do not interpret any other script output.

Do not:

• Call Slack APIs directly
• Read or log Slack message text
• Join or leave channels manually
• Re-run the script multiple times for the same email in one investigation

JSON schema (version 1)

Key fields:

Field	Type	Notes
status	string	See Status Taxonomy below
is_active_community_member	bool	true only when member_active
last_engaged_at	ISO-8601	Present only when member_active
engagement_count	int	Present only when member_active
channels_checked	int	Channels successfully scanned
channels_failed	int	Channels that returned errors
errors	array	Machine-readable error strings
schema_version	int	Always 1 for this skill version

Status Taxonomy

status	Meaning
member_active	In workspace AND posted in an approved channel within the lookback window
member_inactive	In workspace but no posts found within the lookback window
not_member	Email not found in workspace
deactivated_member	Account found but deactivated
restricted_member	Account found but restricted/guest
inconclusive	Partial failure — some channels failed; check errors field
script_error	Script could not complete (token missing, API down, etc.)

Verdict Impact

This is a softening signal only — it can downgrade a Red verdict to Yellow; it cannot upgrade any other verdict.

Condition	Action
Verdict is Red AND is_active_community_member == true	Downgrade verdict to Yellow
Any other verdict + any status	No change

When downgrading, the recommendation must state:

"Downgraded from Red to Yellow: user is an active Warp Community Slack member (last engaged: <last_engaged_at>). Human review recommended to verify whether fraud signals (multiple accounts / VPN) are legitimate developer behaviour."

Set [EMOJI] to 🟡 in the comment header — do NOT use 🔴 when downgrading to Yellow.

Failure Behavior

If the script returns inconclusive or script_error, or stdout is not valid JSON:

• Set Slack Community to: ⚠️ Slack check inconclusive: <first item from errors field>
• Do NOT apply any verdict downgrade
• Continue the investigation based on all other signals

Output for Front Comment

Populate the Slack Community field as follows:

• member_active: ✅ Active member — last_engaged=<last_engaged_at>, posts=<engagement_count>
• member_inactive: ⚪ Inactive member — no posts in last 90 days
• not_member: ❌ Not a member of the Warp Community Slack
• deactivated_member: ❌ Was a member but account is deactivated
• restricted_member: ⚠️ Restricted/guest account
• inconclusive / script_error: ⚠️ Slack check inconclusive: <first error>

Dry-run example

SLACK_COMMUNITY_BOT_TOKEN=xoxb-... \
python3 /workspace/fraud-bot/scripts/check_slack_community_activity.py \
  --email [e-mail]

Auth (for setup reference only — handled by the script)

Token: SLACK_COMMUNITY_BOT_TOKEN (xoxb-… bot token, "Warp Insights" app) Required scopes: users:read, users:read.email, channels:read, channels:history, groups:read, groups:history

No channel list config needed. The script checks all public and private channels the bot has been invited to. Add/remove channels by inviting or removing the bot via the channel's Integrations settings in Slack.
