## Real RAG Query Example (Sky Lab Computing “random”)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To ask intelligent questions about your Slack conversations:
|
This example shows a real query against the Sky Lab Computing workspace’s “random” channel using the Slack MCP server, with an embedded screenshot of the terminal output.
|
||||||
|

||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Prerequisites
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Bot is installed in the Sky Lab Computing workspace and invited to the target channel (run `/invite @YourBotName` in the channel if needed)
|
||||||
|
- Bot token available and exported in the same terminal session
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Commands
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1) Set the workspace token for this shell
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
```bash
|
||||||
# Ask about a specific topic discussed in your channels
|
export SLACK_MCP_XOXP_TOKEN="xoxb-***-redacted-***"
|
||||||
python -m apps.slack_rag \
|
```
|
||||||
--mcp-server "slack-mcp-server" \
|
|
||||||
|
2) Run a real query against the “random” channel by channel ID (C0GN5BX0F)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python test_channel_by_id_or_name.py \
|
||||||
|
--channel-id C0GN5BX0F \
|
||||||
|
--workspace-name "Sky Lab Computing" \
|
||||||
|
--query "PUBPOL 290"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Expected: The output contains a matching message (e.g., “do we have a channel for class PUBPOL 290 this semester?”) followed by a compact RAG-style answer section.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3) Optional: Ask a broader question
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python test_channel_by_id_or_name.py \
|
||||||
|
--channel-id C0GN5BX0F \
|
||||||
--workspace-name "Sky Lab Computing" \
|
--workspace-name "Sky Lab Computing" \
|
||||||
--channels random general \
|
|
||||||
--query "What is LEANN about?"
|
--query "What is LEANN about?"
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will:
|
Notes:
|
||||||
1. **Retrieve relevant messages** from the specified channels
|
- If you see `not_in_channel`, invite the bot to the channel and re-run.
|
||||||
2. **Index the content** for semantic search
|
- If you see `channel_not_found`, confirm the channel ID and workspace.
|
||||||
3. **Generate an intelligent answer** based on the retrieved context
|
- Deep search via server-side “search” tools may require additional Slack scopes; the example above performs client-side filtering over retrieved history.
|
||||||
4. **Provide citations** showing which messages were used
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
## Success Example: Working Integration
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Here's what a successful Slack integration looks like in practice:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Terminal Output
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When you run the connection test, you should see output similar to this:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
Testing Slack MCP Connection...
|
|
||||||
Environment: SLACK_MCP_XOXP_TOKEN = xoxb-16753592806-967...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Connected to Slack MCP server!
|
|
||||||
Authenticated with Slack.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Listing available MCP tools...
|
|
||||||
Found 5 available tools:
|
|
||||||
1. channels_list - Get list of channels
|
|
||||||
2. conversations_add_message - Add messages to channels
|
|
||||||
3. conversations_history - Get messages from channels
|
|
||||||
4. conversations_replies - Get thread messages
|
|
||||||
5. conversations_search_messages - Search messages with filters
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Testing message fetch from 'random' channel...
|
|
||||||
Successfully fetched messages from channel random.
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
### Visual Example
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The following screenshot shows a successful integration with VS Code displaying the retrieved Slack channel data:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Key Success Indicators
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Authentication Success**: Connected to your Slack workspace
|
|
||||||
- **Tool Availability**: 5 MCP tools ready for interaction
|
|
||||||
- **Data Access**: Retrieved channel directory with member counts and purposes
|
|
||||||
- **Comprehensive Coverage**: Access to multiple channels including specialized research groups
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This demonstrates that your Slack integration is fully functional and ready for RAG queries across your entire workspace.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Important: Invite Your Bot to Channels
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Before running RAG queries, you need to invite your Slack bot to the channels you want to access. This is a security feature in Slack.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**To invite your bot to a channel:**
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Go to the channel in Slack (e.g., `#general` or `#random`)
|
|
||||||
2. Type: `/invite @YourBotName` (replace with your actual bot name)
|
|
||||||
3. Or click the channel name → "Settings" → "Integrations" → "Add apps"

### Screenshot: Real RAG Query Results
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Here's what you'll see when running a RAG query on your Slack workspace:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**What this screenshot shows:**
|
|
||||||
- ✅ **Successful MCP connection** to Slack workspace
|
|
||||||
- ✅ **Channel directory retrieval** (107 channels discovered)
|
|
||||||
- ✅ **Proper error handling** for channel access permissions
|
|
||||||
- ⚠️ **"not_in_channel" errors** indicating bot needs invitation to specific channels
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is the expected behavior - the integration is working perfectly, it just needs proper channel permissions to access conversation messages.
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
### Prerequisites
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Bot is installed in the Sky Lab Computing workspace and invited to the target channel (run `/invite @YourBotName` in the channel if needed)
|
|
||||||
- Bot token available and exported in the same terminal session
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Commands
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1) Set the workspace token for this shell
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
export SLACK_MCP_XOXP_TOKEN="xoxb-***-redacted-***"
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2) Run a real query against the “random” channel by channel ID (C0GN5BX0F)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
python test_channel_by_id_or_name.py \
|
|
||||||
--channel-id C0GN5BX0F \
|
|
||||||
--workspace-name "Sky Lab Computing" \
|
|
||||||
--query "PUBPOL 290"
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Expected: The output contains a matching message (e.g., “do we have a channel for class PUBPOL 290 this semester?”) followed by a compact RAG-style answer section.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3) Optional: Ask a broader question
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
python test_channel_by_id_or_name.py \
|
|
||||||
--channel-id C0GN5BX0F \
|
|
||||||
--workspace-name "Sky Lab Computing" \
|
|
||||||
--query "What is LEANN about?"
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Notes:
|
|
||||||
- If you see `not_in_channel`, invite the bot to the channel and re-run.
|
|
||||||
- If you see `channel_not_found`, confirm the channel ID and workspace.
|
