Slack Code brings AI coding agents into shared team channels

Slack is rolling out a native environment for teams that want to build with AI coding agents without bouncing between chat threads, browser tabs, and separate dev tools.

What Slack Code Does

The new feature creates dedicated, project-specific code channels inside Slack. Tag in a supported coding agent, including Anthropic’s Claude or Cognition’s Devin, and the agent spins up a channel to work the task. Team members can follow along, review changes, and preview HTML output before anything ships.

Alongside the agent interaction, Slack Code includes a user tab structure per channel and tooling to compare coding changes directly inside the conversation.

The Operator Angle

The pitch is context consolidation. Instead of describing a bug in Slack, switching to a separate AI coding tool, then pasting results back into a thread, the loop stays in one place. For small teams where everyone is already living in Slack, that friction reduction is real.
