agent-slack-cli

Connect any project to Agent Slack for autonomous AI coding.

Quick Start

``bash


Navigate to your project

cd /path/to/your-project

Initialize Agent Slack

npx agent-slack-cli init

Start the worker (foreground)

npx agent-slack-cli start

Or install as background service (auto-starts on login)

npx agent-slack-cli install-service
`

Commands

$3

Initialize Agent Slack in the current project.

`bash
npx agent-slack-cli init
`

This will:
- Ask for your Agent Slack URL
- Ask for a project ID
- Ask for your Claude API key
- Create .agent-slack/.env with configuration
- Optionally create the project in Agent Slack

$3

Start the agent worker in the foreground.

`bash
npx @agent-slack/cli start
`

The worker will:
- Poll Agent Slack for pending tasks
- Execute tasks using Claude
- Commit changes to git
- Report progress back to Agent Slack

Press Ctrl+C to stop.

$3

Install as a background service that auto-starts on login (macOS).

`bash
npx @agent-slack/cli install-service
`

$3

Remove the background service.

`bash
npx @agent-slack/cli uninstall-service
`

$3

Check the worker status and pending tasks.

`bash
npx @agent-slack/cli status
`

How It Works

1. You send a task to @coder-{project-id} in Agent Slack (from mobile or web)
2. The worker polls for new tasks
3. When a task is found, Claude executes it using tools:
- Read/write/edit files
- Search code
- Run commands
- Commit to git
4. Progress and completion are reported back to Agent Slack

Configuration

Configuration is stored in .agent-slack/.env:

`env
AGENT_SLACK_URL=https://agent-slack.vercel.app
PROJECT_ID=my-project
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
POLL_INTERVAL_MS=10000
WORKSPACE_PATH=/path/to/project
``

Requirements

- Node.js 18+
- macOS (for background service), or run manually on Linux/Windows
- Claude API key (Anthropic)
