Slack Integration
Amp is an AI agent that can build software and automate common knowledge work. Mention @Amp in a
channel or thread to ask a question, start work, or manage an existing Amp thread without leaving
Slack.
Install Amp for Slack
Use these steps if you are not signed in to Amp:
- Select Add to Slack above.
- Sign in to your Amp account. If you do not have an account, select Sign Up and create one.
- Find Slack in Personal Integrations and select Connect Personal Slack.
- Review the requested permissions in Slack, choose the Slack workspace, and authorize Amp.
If you belong to an Amp workspace, an Amp workspace admin must first connect Slack in Workspace Integrations. Each member then connects their own Slack identity in Personal Integrations. If you use Amp on your own, the personal connection installs Amp in Slack without creating an Amp workspace.
After Slack authorizes Amp, Amp shows a Slack Connected confirmation with the next steps. Add @Amp to a Slack channel, then mention @Amp in a channel or thread to start work.
What You Can Do
Puck can use messages, threads, and attached images as context. Here are some ways people use it:
Conversations and Replies
The first mention starts a Puck conversation for that Slack thread. Puck replies in the same thread so the discussion and results stay together.
Mention @Amp again when you want to give Puck another instruction. Open the linked Amp thread when you want to inspect the complete conversation or continue in the app.
Each person talks to their own Puck. The working status and reply byline identify whose Puck is answering. A personal Puck uses that person’s permissions and personal connections, so two people can get different results in the same Slack thread.
Use workspace projects for code and guidance that every member must access. Add shared tools as workspace MCP servers. Keep private accounts and credentials in personal integrations and MCP settings.
Slack MCP Support
Support for Slack’s hosted MCP server is coming soon, pending Slack approval. Once available, it will let agents in Amp search Slack and take actions you request, limited to content your Slack account can access.
Notices
A paid Slack plan is required to use Amp in Slack’s AI agent app container. On Slack Free, users
can still mention @Amp in channels and threads, receive threaded replies, and get supported Amp
link previews.
Amp uses large language models and can generate inaccurate responses, summaries, code, findings, or other outputs. Review its work and test code before relying on it or taking production action.
Amp does not train on your data. Read the Privacy Policy for more information.
