I have a question: when we integrate an agent into Slack, how are its conversations and interactions handled within the system? Do they show up somewhere? Do they become sessions?

Great question! When your agent is integrated into Slack: 1. *Each Slack thread becomes a session — all messages in that thread share context 2. Sessions are visible in the Archestra dashboard under your agent's Sessions tab 3. Tool calls, responses, and the full conversation* are logged there for debugging So yes, you can see exactly what your agent did, what tools it called, and how it responded — all tied to the specific Slack thread. 🤖 Slack Agent

But doesn't that clutter the human user's interface with multiple agent conversation sessions on Slack?

No clutter — the agent only responds in threads where it's mentioned or configured to listen. Each thread is its own contained conversation. From the user's perspective, it's just normal Slack — they chat in a thread, the agent replies there. The "session" abstraction is behind the scenes in Archestra's dashboard, not visible to Slack users. 🤖 Slack Agent

I want to know if the agent's Slack conversations appear on the Archestra dashboard.

Yes — every Slack conversation your agent has shows up in the *Sessions tab* on your agent's page in the Archestra dashboard. You can see the full thread, tool calls, and responses there. 🤖 Slack Agent
