Slack integration

Bring reviewed Queast updates into one Slack channel

The current implementation exposes an administrator-managed Slack app connection and one default channel for notification delivery. It is a hand-off into Slack—not a conversational bot, decision system, or autonomous sending engine. Public availability and the enabled notification catalog still need confirmation.

Reviewed implementation

What the current connection proves

These controls are present in the reviewed product code. They establish a technical foundation, not universal availability or a complete public notification contract.

Verified control

One administrator-managed connection

The Integrations surface exposes setup, edit, test, and remove controls. Customer, plan, and market availability remains to be confirmed.

Verified control

One default channel

The reviewed setup stores one bot connection and one default channel—not direct messages, person destinations, or multi-channel fan-out.

Verified control

Connection test

Setup verifies the connection through a test message and the configured state exposes a test action. This is not a delivery guarantee.

Verified scope

A bounded Slack app

The generated manifest requests chat:write and incoming-webhook. Those scopes do not establish conversational or interactive workflow.

Human-controlled hand-off

Move attention without moving authority

Slack transports a supported notification payload. It does not recompute evidence, analysis, Composite Intents, recommendations, or Actionable Signal eligibility.

  1. 01
    Approved input

    Start from an approved notification candidate

    The enabled type and trigger must match the approved production catalog. A payload label does not determine the authority of its underlying artifact.

  2. 02
    Bounded payload

    Build the supported Slack payload

    Use only the summary and link behavior defined for the approved template. Exact fields and links remain part of publication review.

  3. 03
    Slack hand-off

    Deliver to the configured default channel

    The connection transports the supported payload to the single configured destination; it does not invent or reinterpret context.

  4. 04
    Human decision

    Continue with human judgment in Queast

    A person opens the underlying context, reviews its evidence and authority, and decides what to do next.

Authority boundary

Keep notification and decision separate

A Slack hand-off can direct attention. It cannot grant authority, complete human review, or broaden the connection contract.

Explore Actionable Signals
  • 1

    No new Signal authority

    Delivery cannot turn source evidence, analysis, or a Composite Intent into an Actionable Signal. Strict eligibility remains separate.

  • 2

    No conversational bot claim

    The reviewed implementation is a notification destination, not a general Slack assistant.

  • 3

    No autonomous sending claim

    A notification does not authorize seller outreach or complete an action on the seller’s behalf.

  • 4

    No delivery guarantee

    Setup verification and recorded delivery state do not establish guaranteed timing, retries, retention, or an SLA.

  • 5

    No per-user Slack preference claim

    The current notification settings surface proves email controls; it does not prove individual Slack preferences.

Evidence and publication status

Publish the foundation; confirm the operating contract

Implementation evidence can support bounded statements. Everything that changes customer access, notification behavior, or delivery expectations still needs explicit approval.

Verified

Verified controls

Administrator setup, edit, test, and remove controls; one default channel; and the two generated Slack app scopes.

Confirm

Catalog to approve

Notification types, triggers, message fields, links, and any daily or weekly digest availability.

Confirm

Destinations to confirm

Current evidence supports one default channel. Direct messages, people, and multiple destination channels are not public claims.

Confirm

Operations to confirm

Failure visibility, retry timing, retention, health, alerting, and service-level expectations remain contract decisions.

Implementation checklist

Confirm the contract before connecting

Resolve these questions against the approved production behavior. They are review requirements, not implied capabilities.

  1. 1

    Availability

    Is Slack available for this customer, plan, and market?

  2. 2

    Administration

    Which administrator can configure, test, edit, or remove the connection?

  3. 3

    Destination identity

    Which channel identity is stored, displayed, and used for delivery?

  4. 4

    Notification catalog

    Which types and triggers are enabled in the approved production contract?

  5. 5

    Message contract

    Which fields and links are included for each approved notification type?

  6. 6

    Delivery state

    Which failure, retry, audit, and health details are visible to administrators?

  7. 7

    Signal eligibility

    If a Signal is referenced, does the path preserve the strict Actionable Signal eligibility contract?
