slacrawl
Slack archive: search, sync freshness, threads/DMs, SQL counts, and Slacrawl repo work.
Why this skill is useful
Adds specific commands and workflows for managing and querying Slack archives that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.
What it needs
Requires slacrawl installed locally. Requires slack account access. About 1k tokens when loaded. Last updated 2026-08-07. 385,400 stars on the source repository.
What this skill does
Slacrawl Use local Slack archive data first. Check freshness for recent/current questions: Refresh only when stale or asked: wiretap reads Slack Desktop cache; bot uses API tokens. The desktop/api aliases remain valid. A configured connector can use --source mcp; select the workspace explicitly when needed. Use --full only for deliberate backfills. Query with bounded slices: Report workspace/channel names, absolute date spans, counts, and token/source limits. Use read-only SQL for exact counts/rankings. API sync and full thread/DM hydration require Slack tokens; do not assume they exist.
How to use it
Reference it in AdaL, Claude Code, Cursor or any coding agent — nothing to install:
