Slack launches collaborative coding channels for teams to work with AI agents

Slack is introducing Slack Code, a set of dedicated, project-specific channels designed for teams to collaborate with AI coding agents such as Anthropic’s Claude Code and Cognition’s Devin. These channels provide a shared space where team members can audit code diffs, view live previews of HTML output, give feedback, and approve work before deployment.

The feature is positioned as a way to reduce context switching by keeping coding tasks, discussions, and approvals within a single Slack channel. Each channel is designed to archive itself automatically upon task completion and maintain an audit log for recordkeeping.

Slack states that Slack Code is available starting today on any Slack plan and will integrate with agents available on Slack’s marketplace. The company names founding partners including Claude Code, Devin, Vercel Agent, and GitHub Copilot as agents that will “integrate seamlessly” with the new channels.
