Description
Send and manage messages, channels, and files in Slack workspaces — powered by ClawLink.
README (SKILL.md)

Slack via ClawLink

Work with Slack from chat — send messages, search conversations, manage channels, upload files, schedule messages, and more.

Powered by ClawLink, an integration hub for OpenClaw that handles hosted connection flows and credentials so you don't need to configure Slack API access yourself.

Quick start

  1. Install the verified ClawLink plugin: openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
  2. Start a fresh OpenClaw chat if the plugin was just installed and ClawLink tools are not visible yet
  3. If ClawLink is not configured, call clawlink_begin_pairing
  4. Tell the user to open the returned pairing URL, sign in to ClawLink if needed, and approve the device
  5. After the user confirms approval, call clawlink_get_pairing_status
  6. Tell the user to connect Slack at claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=slack
  7. When the user confirms Slack is connected, call clawlink_list_integrations and then clawlink_list_tools with the slack integration slug

Setup details

Installing the plugin

If the ClawLink plugin is not installed yet, tell the user to run:

openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin

If the current chat started before the plugin was installed and ClawLink tools are still unavailable, tell the user to start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the plugin tool catalog.

Pairing ClawLink

If ClawLink reports that the plugin is not configured, the plugin has not been paired with the user's ClawLink account yet.

  1. Call clawlink_begin_pairing.
  2. Tell the user to open the returned pairing URL in their browser.
  3. The user signs in to ClawLink if needed and approves the OpenClaw device.
  4. After the user confirms approval, call clawlink_get_pairing_status to finish local setup.

The resulting device credential is stored locally in OpenClaw's plugin config and is only sent to claw-link.dev. The user should not paste raw credentials into chat.

Connecting Slack

Tell the user to open https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=slack and connect Slack there. The page opens the add-connection panel filtered to Slack. ClawLink's hosted page runs the Slack OAuth flow — the user clicks through the Slack login and authorization screen. When they confirm it is done, call clawlink_list_integrations to verify, then call clawlink_list_tools with integration slack.

Using Slack tools

ClawLink provides tools dynamically based on what the user has connected. You do not need to know tool names or schemas in advance.

Discovery

  1. Call clawlink_list_integrations to confirm Slack is connected.
  2. Call clawlink_list_tools with integration slack.
  3. Treat the returned list as the source of truth. Do not guess or assume what tools exist.
  4. If the user describes a capability but the exact tool is unclear, call clawlink_search_tools with a short query and integration slack.
  5. If no Slack tools appear, direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=slack.

Execution

  1. Call clawlink_describe_tool before using an unfamiliar tool, before any write, or when the request is ambiguous.
  2. Use the returned schema, whenToUse, askBefore, safeDefaults, examples, and followups.
  3. Prefer read, list, search, and get operations before writes.
  4. For writes or anything marked as requiring confirmation, call clawlink_preview_tool first, then confirm with the user.
  5. Execute with clawlink_call_tool.
  6. If it fails, report the real error. Do not invent results or restate the failure as a missing capability unless the live catalog supports that conclusion.

What you can do

Typical Slack tasks (actual availability depends on the user's connected account, permissions, scopes, and current ClawLink tool catalog):

  • Send messages to channels and DMs
  • Schedule delayed messages
  • Search messages and conversations
  • Create and archive channels
  • Invite users to channels
  • Upload and manage files
  • Add emoji reactions
  • Manage reminders and pinned items

Rules

  • Always use ClawLink tools for Slack. Do not ask the user for separate Slack credentials.
  • Do not claim a capability is missing without checking the live ClawLink catalog in the current turn.
  • Do not invent slash commands or ask the user to paste raw credentials.
  • Ask for confirmation before destructive, external-facing, or bulk write actions.
  • If Slack is not connected, direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=slack.
  • Never echo or repeat the user's ClawLink credential.

Resources

Usage Guidance
Before installing, make sure you trust ClawLink and are connecting the correct Slack workspace. During use, approve only the Slack actions you intend, especially messages, channel changes, invitations, file operations, scheduled posts, and any bulk or destructive requests.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: slack-workspace Version: 0.1.0 The skill bundle provides instructions for an AI agent to manage Slack workspaces using a third-party integration service called ClawLink (claw-link.dev). The instructions in SKILL.md follow a standard OAuth-based integration pattern, including explicit safety rules for the agent such as requiring user confirmation for destructive actions and prohibiting the disclosure of credentials. No malicious code, unauthorized data exfiltration, or obfuscation was found.
Capability Tags
requires-oauth-tokenrequires-sensitive-credentials
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is Slack messaging, channel, and file management, and the documented capabilities match that purpose. Those capabilities can visibly affect a workspace, so users should notice them before installing.
Instruction Scope
The skill tells the agent to discover Slack tools through ClawLink, describe unfamiliar tools, preview writes, and confirm destructive, external-facing, or bulk actions. This is reasonably scoped, though it depends on the live ClawLink catalog.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill, but it asks the user to install the ClawLink plugin via the OpenClaw CLI. The install is user-directed and purpose-aligned, but the plugin code is outside the provided artifact set.
Credentials
Slack OAuth and ClawLink credentials are expected for this integration and are disclosed in SKILL.md. Registry requirements list no primary credential even though capability signals indicate OAuth/sensitive credentials, which is an under-declaration note rather than a concrete unsafe behavior.
Persistence & Privilege
The artifact says a ClawLink device credential is stored locally in OpenClaw plugin config and sent only to claw-link.dev. No hidden background persistence, self-propagation, or autonomous behavior is shown.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install slack-workspace
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /slack-workspace
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
