Connect Slack to Grok

• Catch you up

  Ask what you missed and Grok reads your unread Slack chats, then gives you the short version: who needs an answer, what was decided, what can wait.

  get_messages_to_summarize

• Find any message

  The address someone sent last month, the price a client agreed to, the link from a group chat. Grok searches your Slack history and quotes the message.

  search_messages

• Draft replies

  Grok writes the reply in your tone, in the chat's language, with the context of the whole thread. You read it, edit it, and send it.

  draft_reply

• Send with your OK

  When you approve a draft, ConnectChats sends it from your own Slack account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

   Every chat is listed in your ConnectChats dashboard. Share all of them or only the ones you choose. Grok never sees the rest.

4. 4

   Ask Grok about your Slack

   Open a new conversation in Grok and ask about your chats. Grok calls ConnectChats when it needs your messages.

• Slack in ConnectChats

  Direct messages, group messages and the channels you belong to are supported, including thread replies. Each linked chat starts with its last 200 messages, then every new message arrives as it is sent. On Slack's free plan, Slack only shows the last 90 days of messages, so older ones cannot be imported either. Messages your AI app sends go out from your own Slack account, after you approve them. The free plan links 2 chat apps and keeps messages for 30 days.

• ConnectChats in Grok

  Grok supports custom connectors that point at a remote MCP server. You add ConnectChats once on grok.com, sign in with your passkey, and Grok can use the chats you share when you ask about them. xAI says connectors are available to all Grok users. Custom connectors are added on grok.com. On Grok Business and Enterprise, a team admin adds the connector in the xAI console first, then each member connects their own account. Grok lists the ConnectChats tools after you connect, so you can see what it is able to call.

• You pick the chats

  Grok only sees the Slack chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.

• Drafts by default

  Grok prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches Slack, unless you turn on auto-send for that chat.

• Stored messages are encrypted

  Stored messages are encrypted with a key that only your passkey can unlock. We never train models on your messages.
