Quick Start

Installation

npm install -g agent-messenger

Or use your favorite package manager:

# Using pnpm
pnpm add -g agent-messenger

# Using yarn
yarn global add agent-messenger

# Using bun
bun add -g agent-messenger

This installs three CLI tools:

agent-slack — Slack CLI
agent-discord — Discord CLI
agent-teams — Microsoft Teams CLI

Extract Credentials

Agent Messenger automatically extracts tokens from your desktop apps. Make sure the app is installed and you're logged in.

# For Slack
agent-slack auth extract

# For Discord
agent-discord auth extract

# For Teams
agent-teams auth extract

That's it. No OAuth flows. No API tokens. No configuration files.

Verify Setup

Check that authentication worked:

agent-slack auth status

You should see your workspace name and user info.

Send Your First Message

# Get a snapshot of your workspace
agent-slack snapshot --pretty

# Send a message to a channel
agent-slack message send general "Hello from the CLI!"

Output Formats

By default, all commands output compact JSON (perfect for AI agents):

agent-slack channel list
# {"channels":[{"id":"C01234567","name":"general",...}]}

Add --pretty for human-readable output:

agent-slack channel list --pretty

Multi-Workspace Support

If you're logged into multiple workspaces:

# List all workspaces
agent-slack workspace list

# Switch to a different workspace
agent-slack workspace switch <workspace-id>

# Check current workspace
agent-slack workspace current
