What the skill teaches
A skill from Slack's official plugin that teaches an agent to drive the Slack CLI (the slack command) from the terminal. It locates and checks the installed CLI, discovers commands through the built-in help, signs in and switches teams, runs an app locally with slack run, edits the app manifest, calls Web API methods with slack api and searches the Slack developer docs with slack docs search. It lists warning signs that should make the agent stop during login. New project setup is left to the separate create-slack-app skill. It needs the Slack CLI installed and signed in to a workspace.
