Workflow
1. Validate
- Valid actions: start, stop, status, pending, approve, approve_all, reject, history, send, reload
- approve/reject require
message_id
- send requires
target (or channel) and message
2. Execute
Run scripts/slack_control.py or scripts/slack_daemon.py:
- start:
python slack_daemon.py (with --llm, --verbose if set); check PID file; use systemd-cat for journald
- stop:
slack_control.py stop
- status:
slack_control.py status
- pending:
slack_control.py pending -v
- approve:
slack_control.py approve <message_id>
- approve_all:
slack_control.py approve-all
- reject:
slack_control.py reject <message_id>
- history:
slack_control.py history -n <limit> -c/-u/-s filters -v
- send:
slack_control.py send <target> <message> (optional -t thread)
- reload:
slack_control.py reload
3. Memory
memory_session_log("Slack daemon {action}", "Success: {result}")- If start/stop/status: update
memory/state/slack_daemon.yaml with status, pid, timestamps
Notes
- Daemon logs:
journalctl --user -t bot-slack -f
- PID file:
/tmp/slack-daemon.pid
