Slackbot
for LuumenAI
Read the whole workspace for context, then post and react as the bot.
Connect Slackbot and the agent can read across your workspace the way a person would: search channel and thread history, pull reactions on a message, look up a user by email, and open direct messages. It posts, reacts, creates channels, and sets reminders as the bot. Reads come back right away. Changes are previewed and sent for approval first.

Questions
How does LuumenAI connect to Slackbot?
Authorize once with OAuth 2.0. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.
Can LuumenAI change things in Slackbot on its own?
Read actions answer immediately. Anything that writes — add call participants, add reaction to message, add a remote file, archive a slack conversation, and more — is shown as a plan and requires approval by default, including the 15 actions classified as destructive. Administrators configure that per tool, so you decide exactly which actions can ever run unattended.
Who gets access to the integration?
You decide. Actions are granted per agent, skill, and team, and per environment — production is not staging. Read access can be broad while writes stay narrow.
Is there an audit trail?
Every call to Slackbot — read or write, approved or declined — is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result, and can be linked to the ticket or change record.
