Slack Integration

Not Yet Available

This feature is not yet available. Check back soon for updates.

Start and manage Roo Code Cloud tasks from Slack using app mentions (@roomote) or direct messages, then track progress with live updates—all without leaving your conversation.

What is Slack Integration​

Slack Integration connects your organization's Slack workspace to Roo Code Cloud, letting you start Cloud tasks by mentioning the app or sending it a direct message.

Key capabilities​

  • Start Cloud jobs — Mention @roomote in channels/threads or DM the app
  • Configure inline — Pick mode, model, and workspace without leaving Slack
  • Live progress — TODO lists update in-place; get start links, completion summaries, and status
  • Image support — Attach images (under 10MB each) for visual context
  • Cancel anytime — Stop tasks with a button in the thread

Team-only​

Requires an active organization plan. Personal accounts can't start Cloud tasks from Slack.

Getting started​

Step 1: Install the Slack app (org admin)​

Your organization admin installs the Roo Code Slack app through your organization settings.

Step 2: Connect your Slack account​

First-time users see a "Connect Account" button after mentioning the app. Click it to link your Slack user to your Roo account. Once linked, the configuration UI appears automatically.

Step 3: Mention the app or DM it​

  • In channels/threads: Type @roomote followed by your request
  • In DMs: Send a regular message (no mention needed)

Generic channel messages without an explicit mention are ignored to prevent accidental triggers.

Configuration options​

Mode​

Switches the agent's behavior (defaults from org config). Available modes depend on your organization's setup.

Model​

Shown when using OpenRouter. Select from available models.

Workspace​

Choose a specific repository or "All Repositories" for workspace-wide context. Your last choice is remembered.

Limitations​

  • Team plans only — Personal accounts can't start Cloud tasks from Slack
  • Mention required in channels — Generic channel messages without @roomote are ignored
  • Images only — Non-image files aren't processed; images must be under 10MB
  • Active subscription — Requires funded Cloud credits
