Drive a project from Slack — messages spawn sessions and the agent replies in-thread.

A channel connects a chat workspace to a project so you can run the agent from chat. Connect Slack to a project, and a message or mention spawns a session; the agent replies in the thread. Follow-up messages in that thread continue the same session.

Connect Slack from the project's Channels page in the dashboard, or with kortix channels connect. Two options: bring your own Slack app (a bot token + signing secret), or the Kortix-managed Slack app via OAuth.
Credentials are stored as project secrets (e.g. SLACK_BOT_TOKEN, SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET) — never in the repo.

Note

Channels are configured through the dashboard, CLI, and secrets — not through kortix.toml. Telegram is supported on the backend but has no CLI or dashboard surface yet.
