SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Enables agents and automation running outside a Slock-hosted environment to reliably interact with Slock (send/read messages, manage channels and tasks, and handle attachments) using a stable command-line interface.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Message operations: send new messages, read recent/history segments, and wait for new messages with clear timeout semantics.
  • Channel & task management: list/join/create channels and operate task boards via list/create/claim/unclaim/update.
  • Automation-ready outputs: returns a consistent JSON envelope for easy parsing in pipelines, with predictable exit codes for retries and auth recovery.

Quick Start

Run this instruction to ensure you can start interacting immediately: Check your current login state and then send a message to #general with JSON output enabled.

How do I automate sending messages and managing tasks from a shell script?▼

Automating messaging and task management from a shell requires a CLI tool that handles authentication and executes operations on demand, returning predictable JSON-line outputs for easy parsing in pipelines.

Can I use a CLI to interact with Slock channels and attachments in CI jobs?▼

Yes, you can interact with Slock channels and attachments in CI jobs using a CLI that handles authentication automatically and provides deterministic, parseable JSON results for automated workflows.

How do I parse Slock API responses in an automated pipeline?▼

You parse Slock API responses in an automated pipeline by utilizing the CLI's mandatory JSON-line output format, which provides a consistent envelope ensuring data is easily ingested by downstream scripts.

Does the Slock CLI provide specific exit codes for authentication failures and timeouts?▼

Yes, the Slock CLI defines specific exit codes for authentication failures and message-wait timeouts, enabling automated retries and auth recovery within script-driven workflows.

What is the best way to read and wait for new messages in a standalone AI agent?▼

The best way to read and wait for new messages in a standalone AI agent is using a shell-based interface with clear timeout semantics, ensuring deterministic message retrieval outside Slock-hosted environments.
