Session-based Slack CLI for macOS that enables agents to read and send messages with automatic authentication from the Slack desktop app. No tokens or app installations required.

🚀 Read and send Slack messages directly from your macOS terminal. This CLI tool connects to your running Slack desktop app—no tokens or setup needed. Browse channels, read threads, search messages, and send replies with simple commands.

💡 Perfect for developers who live in the terminal, automating Slack workflows, or building agents that need to monitor channels and respond to messages. Check unread messages, draft replies that sync to Slack, and react to messages—all without leaving your command line.

✨ Auto-authenticates using your Slack session and macOS Keychain, so credentials stay secure. One-time setup, then instant access to your entire workspace from anywhere in your workflow.
