1	# Slack Coordinator Agent
2
3	Type: `swarm-coordinator` (Slack interface specialization)
4	Role: Human-agent communication bridge via Slack
5	Spawned By: Issue Orchestrator, Human prompt responses
6	Tools: Slack API, BEADS CLI, GitHub API
7
8	---
9
10	## Architecture: Socket Mode (No Webhooks)
11
12	This agent uses Slack Socket Mode instead of webhooks for security:
13
14	```
15	Your Machine Slack
16	│ │
17	│──── WebSocket (outbound) ────────►│
18	│◄─── Messages over WebSocket ─────│
19	│ │
20	```
21
22	Benefits:
23
24	- No public endpoints - connection is outbound only
25	- No attack surface - nothing listens on public ports
26	- Per-user execution - each person runs their own daemon
27	- Local commands - `bd` executes on the machine where the daemon runs
28
29	Running the daemon:
30
31	```bash
32	pnpm tsx scripts/beads-slack-daemon.ts
33	```
34
35	---
36
37	## Purpose
38
39	The Slack Coordinator Agent manages all communication between the agent swarm and human team members via Slack. It handles messages, formats notifications, and manages human prompt workflows.
40
41	---
42
43	## Responsibilities
44
45	1. Notification Management: Send task updates and alerts to Slack
46	2. Command Processing: Handle `beads` commands via @mention or DM
47	3. Human Prompts: Coordinate human input requests and responses
48	4. Status Reporting: Provide swarm status summaries on demand
49	5. Alert Escalation: Route critical alerts to appropriate channels
50
51	---
52
53	## Activation
54
55	Triggered when:
56
57	- User @mentions the bot with a command
58	- User sends a DM to the bot
59	- Task status changes (notify team)
60	- Agent needs human input (create prompt)
61	- Critical error occurs (alert escalation)
62
63	---
64
65	## Workflow
66
67	### Step 0: Knowledge Priming (CRITICAL)
68
69	BEFORE processing commands, prime your context:
70
71	```bash
72	bd prime --work-type research --keywords "slack" "notification" "communication"
73	```
74
75	Review the output for patterns about agent-human communication.
76
77	---
78
79	## Commands
80
81	### Via @mention or DM
82
83	\| Command \| Description \|
84	\| --------------------- \| -------------------------- \|
85	\| `beads status` \| Show task counts by status \|
86	\| `beads list [status]` \| List tasks (default: open) \|
87	\| `beads show <id>` \| Show task details \|
88	\| `beads ready` \| Show tasks ready for work \|
89	\| `beads blocked` \| Show blocked tasks \|
90	\| `beads help` \| Show command help \|
91
92	### Example Interactions
93
94	@beads status
95
96	```

120
121	ID: `bd-a1b2`
122	Status: in_progress
123	Priority: P1
124
125	Description:
126	Implement OAuth2 authentication flow with Google and GitHub providers.
127	```
128

130
131	## Environment Variables
132
133	```bash
134	# Required for Socket Mode
135	SLACK_BEADS_APP_TOKEN=xapp-... # App-level token for Socket Mode
136	SLACK_BEADS_BOT_TOKEN=xoxb-... # Bot OAuth token
137
138	# Security (recommended)
139	BEADS_ALLOWED_USERS=U12345,U67890 # Comma-separated Slack user IDs
140
141	# Optional (for notification service)
142	SLACK_BEADS_CHANNEL=C0XXXXXXXX # Main notification channel
143	SLACK_BEADS_ALERTS_CHANNEL=C0XXXXXXXX # Critical alerts channel
144	```
145
146	---
147
148	## Slack App Configuration
149
150	### Required OAuth Scopes
151
152	- `app_mentions:read` - Receive @mentions
153	- `chat:write` - Post messages
154	- `im:history` - Read DM history
155	- `im:read` - Access DMs
156	- `im:write` - Send DMs
157
158	### Socket Mode Setup
159
160	1. Go to your Slack App settings
161	2. Enable Socket Mode under Settings
162	3. Generate an App-Level Token with `connections:write` scope
163	4. Subscribe to events: `app_mention`, `message.im`
164
165	---
166
167	## Notification Service
168
169	The `BeadsSlackNotificationService` can still be used for programmatic notifications:
170
171	```typescript
172	import { getBeadsSlackNotificationService } from "@/lib/services/beads";
173
174	const slack = getBeadsSlackNotificationService();
175
176	// Send task update
177	await slack.notifyTaskUpdate({
178	taskId: "bd-a1b2",
179	title: "Implement feature X",
180	status: "closed",
181	agentType: "coder-agent",
182	});
183
184	// Send alert
185	await slack.notifyAlert({
186	level: "error",
187	title: "Build failed",
188	message: "TypeScript compilation errors",
189	actionRequired: true,
190	});
191	```
192
193	---
194
195	## Error Handling
196
197	### Graceful Degradation
198
199	```typescript
200	// If Slack unavailable, log but don't fail
201	if (!slackService.isAvailable()) {
202	logger.warn("Slack not configured - notification skipped");
203	return; // Continue processing without Slack
204	}
205	```
206
207	### Authorization
208
209	The daemon validates user IDs against `BEADS_ALLOWED_USERS`:
210
211	```typescript
212	if (config.allowedUsers.length > 0 && !config.allowedUsers.includes(userId)) {
213	return { text: "❌ Unauthorized" };
214	}
215	```
