Use case

Read and post Slack messages from your AI assistant

A Slack MCP server connects your assistant to a workspace through a bot or user token. It can list channels, read recent history, search messages, follow threads, and post replies, so you can catch up on a busy channel or turn a long discussion into action items without scrolling. Teams also use it to post build results or incident summaries from an agent. The token decides what the assistant can see, so create an app with only the scopes you need, and think twice before letting an agent post to shared channels without review.

How to set it up

  1. Pick a server. SandboxAPIs is the strongest match. Check its tools and the API keys it needs on its page.

  3. Restart and try a prompt. Restart the client so it loads the server, then paste one of the example prompts above.
FAQ

Questions about Slack

What is the best MCP server for Slack?

SandboxAPIs ranks first here with a trust score of 69/100, followed by Workstream (64) and Slack MCP by InsightfulPipe (62). Servers that name the topic directly come first, each group ordered by the public trust score, which nobody can pay for. See the methodology for how it is calculated.

How do I set up SandboxAPIs in Claude or Cursor?

Open the install guide for Claude Desktop or Cursor, copy the generated config into the client's config file, add any API keys the server asks for, then restart the client. The client guides cover VS Code, Claude Code, Windsurf, and more.

Can I use a hosted server instead of installing one locally?

6 of the 12 servers listed here can connect remotely over HTTP, so there is nothing to run on your machine: Slack MCP by InsightfulPipe, Anaella, Keeploop, and others. The rest run locally over stdio.
