 "title": "Add a remembering AI teammate to a Slack channel",
 "page_title": "How to add a remembering AI teammate to a Slack channel with DeepSeek Bot",
 "summary": "Mention the bot in Slack and ask what was decided last week; it searches its threads and answers in place.",
 "who": "A team lead in a Slack workspace who keeps losing track of decisions made in long threads.",
 "problem": "Decisions get buried in old threads, and nobody wants to scroll back through weeks of messages to find them.",
 "outcome": "The bot answers in the thread with the earlier passage and what it implies, drawing only on the channel where you asked.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rlaope/deepseek-bot/master/install.sh | bash` in a macOS terminal.",
  "Run `dsh gateway setup`, choose Slack with ↑↓ and Enter, and paste the token when asked.",
  "Run `dsh gateway status` to confirm the bot is up.",
  "In a Slack channel, mention the bot and ask what was decided about a topic last week."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the repo rlaope/deepseek-bot on a Mac with Node.js 22+, install it with the README's curl command, connect Slack with `dsh gateway setup`, and confirm with `dsh gateway status`. Then ask the bot in <channel-name> what was decided about <topic> last week; the expected output is a thread reply that quotes or points to the earlier message. Verify that the reply appears only in the channel where you asked.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says Slack is used live while Discord and Telegram are tested only against mocked APIs, and recall matches words, not meaning, so a paraphrase can be missed.",

 "tags": [
  "Work and operations"
 ],
 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "A Mac running macOS, since the installer and services are macOS only",
  "Node.js 22+",
  "The DeepSeek Harness app, which the installer can download for you",
  "A DeepSeek API key, or a key the harness already has",
  "A bot token from Slack, Telegram or Discord"
