Claude Code + Slack = workflow revolution

Mervin Praison · Intermediate ·💻 AI-Assisted Coding ·1d ago
Send a message in Slack. Claude reads your codebase, creates a branch, writes the code, opens a pull request, and ships it — without you leaving the channel. 🔗 Links Add Claude to Slack: https://claude.com/claude-for-slack Slack Marketplace: https://praisonai.slack.com/marketplace/A08SF47R6P4-claude Claude Code on the web: https://claude.ai Claude for Slack brings Claude Code directly into your Slack workspace. Anyone on your team can tag @Claude in any channel, ask it to scan for security issues, upgrade dependencies, run tests, fetch pull requests, or build a feature end to end — and Claude handles the rest through its GitHub integration and tool connectors. In this video I walk through the full setup: signing into claude.ai, adding the GitHub connector from Claude Code on the web, installing the Claude app into Slack, picking a default repo per channel, switching between code mode and chat mode, and inviting Claude into any existing channel with a single slash command so your whole team can use it. By the end you'll have Claude wired into Slack with GitHub access, able to take a one-line request in a channel and return a working pull request a few seconds later. 🕒 Chapters 0:00 What Claude for Slack does 0:42 Quick recap of Claude Code 0:59 Adding the GitHub connector 1:51 Two ways to install Claude in Slack 2:25 First chat — listing available tools 2:41 Picking a default repo per channel 3:32 Creating a branch, file, and pull request from Slack 4:30 Inviting Claude into any channel with /invite 5:25 Wrap up #ClaudeCode #Slack #AI #DeveloperTools #GitHub #Anthropic This video shows how to integrate Claude AI with Slack, enabling you to draft content, conduct research, and prepare for meetings directly within Slack.
