What the skill teaches

A skill from Slack's official plugin for moving a Slack app that already runs locally onto a host where it keeps running, as a separate deployed app with its own app ID. It uses the Slack CLI's deploy hook in .slack/hooks.json, which runs a provider script after the CLI has created and installed the deployed app, so tokens are already in the environment. Railway and Heroku are the two supported hosts, with bundled deploy scripts the agent copies into the project. The skill also covers checking prerequisites such as Socket Mode, verifying the deployment, redeploying and tearing a deployment down.

Capabilities

  • Deploy a Slack app to Railway or Heroku
  • Wire a deploy script into the Slack CLI deploy hook
  • Verify a deployed app responds in Slack
  • Redeploy or tear down a deployment
