  .@SlackHQ is building for multiplayer AI: tag a coding agent into a Slack conversation and it spins up a coding channel: everyone in that convo gets a live dev environment, diffs post as artifacts, and the channel winds down when the task is done. With the launch of Slack Code, Claudeforce, their MCP and more, Slack is putting Agents in the channels where teams already work, not simply in a private chat with one person. Their position is that the whole team should be able to watch, steer, and review what the agent does. Slack Chief Product Officer Jaime DeLanghe joined me on @chain_ofthought to explain how Slack is building a team AI environment, what happens mechanically when a code channel is created, why Anthropic pushes so much of its code through Slack, how the channel permission model became the agent context model, and what has to change in engineering culture when the whole team is steering one agent. I think Slack is the platform best positioned to become the context harness where enterprise agents run: agents that see what the team discusses, permissions that already exist, and a cultural opportunity hiding inside every multiplayer coding session. Chapters: (0:00) Slack as an IDE and a GitHub for your team (0:29) Who is Jaime DeLanghe (1:21) The reaction to the Slack Code launch (5:30) Why coding agents belong in a context-rich environment (6:08) Engineers now manage agents, not copy-paste code (7:24) The permission model: agents get the channel's context (11:44) What happens when a code channel is created (15:00) Why Anthropic pushes so much code through Slack (19:14) Steering one agent with many people: culture decides (24:54) Slackbot, skills, and MCPs: agents go where the work is (30:53) The solo terminal vs. agents in social spaces (33:53) Org charts and ownership when agents join the team (39:33) Learning loops and shared agent memory (42:39) Citations, recency, and accidental knowledge management (46:50) Context bloat and multi-pass search for agents (50:01) How Jaime uses Slackbot as CPO (52:38) Slack Code is V1 of multiplayer AI

  @SlackHQ are you guys shutting down? It’s been more than a week I’ve been contacting you guys. Support isn’t responding at all

  @hugorcd @SlackHQ @github It has been broken for so long they probably think it's a feature internally

  Drew Hirschi (@ashirsc) reported 21 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ pls never ask me again if I want to DM a thread when I tag someone with no text. This is a terrible feature.

  @SlackHQ There seems to be a bug in your Version 4.50.140 app (Mac) where if you have open a New message and you try to then click in the Search bar, you can't – it just flashes. Can you please fix this. It's very annoying. Thanks!

  Rahul Chetia (@ayoImNotTrippin) reported 27 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ there’s a widespread issue with slack today. Not sure about Mac but my entire team with windows seems to be impacted. Slack becomes irresponsive on windows a few minutes in. Tried ‘repair’ and force close, but no help there. We are using app in our phones to communicate.

  @Yonar87 @SlackHQ same issue here. Just sent them an email. Their status landing page says they've been 100% find this quarter which makes me think maybe they just don't update that page?

  @Shopify @klaviyo @SlackHQ The Non-Technical Technical Dictionary, Day 2: Frontend & Backend Every app has a front of house and a back of house. Same as a restaurant. The frontend is what you see and touch. Think of Amazon, or any website you use. → The menu bar, the buttons, the search box. Everything on screen is just a list of things you're allowed to ask for. That's the menu, the dining room, the host stand. But nothing on that menu is actually happening at your table. When you hit "Buy Now," it's like placing an order with a waiter. He walks it back, the kitchen cooks it, and he brings it out when it's ready. The backend = the kitchen. You'll find database, business logic, server. Anything heavy (pulling your order history, processing a payment, sending an email) happens back there. The frontend only handles what fits at the table: how the buttons look, what color the page is, the small animations etc. Think Michelin star. They're not torching your steak tableside. They need the walk-in, the grill, the prep station, the sous chef. Software is the same. The interesting work needs the full kitchen. When a service like Cloudflare or AWS goes down and takes half the internet with it, that's a backend problem. The ghost kitchen caught fire and every restaurant relying on it went dark. A frontend problem is the one you've seen a hundred times: a button that won't click, text piled on top of an image, a page that looks broken on your phone. Frontend is form, where backend is function.

  Claude is the best corporate CYA buddy I used to have full CYA files with records of messages, emails and things I did - I was terrible at keeping those and people took advantage of that. With Claude and @meetgranola - I have canonical record of all conversations, @SlackHQ messages, emails, canonical decisions - everything Oh, you say I didnt do something? I didnt respond? Here come the receipts

  Bluejay AI can now act in @SlackHQ, not just answer. Run a simulation. Check how production calls went overnight. Resolve the issues that caused the failures. All from the channel your team is already in. Test, monitor, and improve your agents. Now in Slack. Led by Ronniel Gandhe.

  no meaningful way to contribute. Just like closed source/proprietary software, you can report issues, but whether it gets fixed or not depends upon the creator. For example, there are couple of issue that I reported to @SlackHQ regarding screen sharing popups,

  It's from 2011, but I still miss Glitch. It was a browser based MMO based on collecting and crafting. Crazily enough it was made by the company that went on to rebrand and make @SlackHQ. The messaging system in the game became the basis for Slack.
