Getting Started
1
Connect Your Workspace
Navigate to Settings →
Integrations.
Select Slack and connect your workspace.
2
Choose a Channel
QA.tech pre-selects the public channel you picked while connecting Slack.
Change it if this project should notify a different channel. That channel is
also the default chat uses when you do not name one.
3
Configure Notifications
Choose when QA.tech should send updates for the project or override the
channel for an individual run.
Slack Tools in Chat
Chat tools are off by default. Turn on Enable Slack Tools in Chat on the same Slack integration page to let the assistant list public channels, read messages (including thread replies), and post rich messages with images or files. The assistant can only read and post in public channels. Private channels and DMs are not supported with the current Slack app permissions. Reading messages needs thechannels:history bot scope (and channels:join so
the app can enter a public channel it is not already in). Sharing screenshots
and files needs files:write. If Slack was connected before those scopes were
added, reconnect Slack on the same page so the workspace can grant them.
Once enabled, you can ask things like:
- “After this PR merges, post a summary to Slack”
- “What did people reply to the last Slack message?”
- “Read the latest messages in #engineering”
- “Post this screenshot to Slack with a short summary”
