Slack Search
Use the official Slack MCP server configured by this plugin.
Workflow
- Identify the workspace, channel, person, thread, and time range before searching.
- Start with narrow search terms, exact phrases, and useful Slack modifiers.
- Ask before searching private channels or broad people-related history.
- Open relevant threads after search results; do not summarize from snippets alone.
- Separate direct Slack evidence from your own interpretation.
Safety
- Keep private Slack content scoped to the user's request.
- Redact secrets, customer identifiers, and personal data.
- Cite source channels, dates, and message links when available.
