What problem does it solve?
Provides a reliable way to extract the Slack session token (xoxc-) and companion d cookie required for authenticated API access when enterprise Slack apps are restricted, removing the manual, error-prone process of locating these values in the browser.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automated Extraction: Uses a Chrome remote debugging instance to programmatically pull the session token and cookie and save them to a local environment file.
- Manual Fallback: Documents step-by-step DevTools methods to find the token and cookie when automation is unavailable.
- Verification & Renewal: Includes verification commands to confirm auth and guidance to refresh tokens when they expire.
- Use Case: Set up Slack credentials once so an assistant can search message history, post messages, and perform read-only Slack queries for customer support workflows.
Quick Start
Start the Chrome debug instance and run the credential refresh script to capture and save SLACK_TOKEN and SLACK_COOKIE into your local ~/.fe-skills/.env and verify access.
