dsh-slack DSH plugin
dsh-slack is a DeepSeek Harness community plugin that lets your agent interact with Slack in both directions. It uses Socket Mode for real-time message reception and provides four tools for the agent: slack_notify, slack_channels, slack_inbox, and slack_reply. The plugin caches the WebClient and supports configuration via environment variables or cordis.patch.yml.

- Agent monitors Slack channels for specific keywords and triggers actions
Who the dsh-slack DSH plugin is for
- DSH users who want their agent to participate in Slack conversations
- Developers building Slack-integrated automation with DeepSeek Harness
dsh-slack DSH plugin limitations
- slack_inbox is an in-memory queue: cleared on restart, max 200 messages, oldest dropped when full
- Does not support RTM, interactive components (buttons, modals, slash command responses) in v0.2
- Requires a Slack App with proper tokens (xoxb- and xapp-) and Socket Mode enabled for bidirectional communication
- channel parameter is required; defaultChannel only serves as a hint in the parameter description, not a fallback

dsh-slack DSH plugin questions
How do I install dsh-slack?
Run `dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-slack` in your terminal. Then restart your DSH web service. The plugin will be loaded and the four tools will be available to the model.
What tokens do I need to set up for dsh-slack?
You need a Bot User OAuth Token (xoxb-) for sending messages and listing channels. To enable bidirectional communication (receiving messages), you also need an App-Level Token (xapp-) with Socket Mode enabled. Set them via environment variables DSH_SLACK_TOKEN and DSH_SLACK_APP_TOKEN, or in cordis.patch.yml.
Can I use dsh-slack without enabling Socket Mode?
Yes, you can use it in one-way mode (agent->Slack). Without an appToken, the plugin will still work for slack_notify and slack_channels, but slack_inbox will return an empty queue (with a Chinese prompt) and slack_reply won't be usable.
Why does my slack_inbox return empty even after I sent a message?
Make sure you have enabled Socket Mode in your Slack App settings, added the bot to the channel, and subscribed to bot events like `message.channels` and `message.im`. Also verify that your App-Level Token (xapp-) is correctly configured. The inbox is in-memory, so any messages received before the plugin started won't be available.
How do I invite the bot to a private channel?
Use `/invite @your-bot-name` in the private channel. The bot must be a member of the channel to send messages or receive events from it.
