by AVIMBUSlack Model Context Protocol Server
Overview
The Slack Model Context Protocol Server is a connector that enables Claude Desktop (or any MCP client) to interact with your Slack workspace. It allows users to post messages and query a list of all users within the workspace.
Local Development
To run this client locally, add the following configuration to your Claude Desktop MCP Server config file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-slack-local": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/project/dist/index.js"], // Replace with your project path
"env": {
"SLACK_BOT_USER_OAUTH_TOKEN": "test-bot-token",
"SLACK_TEAM_ID": "test-team-id"
}
}
}
}
After configuration, you can test the implementation in your Claude Desktop App using example prompts like:
- "Can you list all users of my Slack team?"
- "Can you send a welcome message to my Slack Channel with the ID
<channel id>?"
To run the server locally:
node dist/index.js
To build and watch for changes in another terminal:
npm run watch
