Slack Technologies 'A'

Slack introduces Slack Code, dedicated project-specific channels that let teams work with AI agents (including Claude Code, Devin, Vercel Agent and GitHub Copilot) to generate, review and preview code. Channels provide code diffs, live HTML previews, audit logs and automatic archiving after tasks complete. The feature is available starting today on all Slack plans and integrates with agents from the Slack marketplace. » More on theverge.com

Marc Benioff said Slack's AI agent scans Slack channels and DMs to identify employee frustrations, surface company concerns and surface key decisions in real time. He said he personally queries Slackbot for business metrics and issues to prioritize. The disclosure highlights broader employer practices of analyzing workplace messages and the need for employees to assume company-provided communications can be accessed and retained. » More on tech.yahoo.com

Anthropic launched MCP Apps, an extension that embeds interactive interfaces for tools like Slack, Figma, Canva, Asana, Hex and Amplitude directly inside the Claude chatbot so users can edit and preview content without leaving chat. The feature goes beyond text outputs to let users visually interact with and refine results in real time. MCP Apps is built on the open Model Context Protocol, which Anthropic donated to the Linux Foundation, and the extension can be adopted by other AI products and servers to create a broader app ecosystem. » More on theverge.com
