Instructions

Parse $ARGUMENTS and execute the matching subcommand:

pair <code>

1. Load access.json
2. Find the pending entry matching <code> (case-insensitive)
3. If not found or expired: show "No pending pairing with that code."
4. If found:
   • Add entry.senderId to allowFrom
   • Remove the pending entry
   • Save access.json with permissions 0o600
   • Show: Approved! User <senderId> can now DM this session.
   • Send a confirmation message to the user in Slack (via the reply tool if the MCP server is running)

policy <mode>

1. Validate mode is one of: pairing, allowlist, disabled
2. Update dmPolicy in access.json
3. Save with 0o600
4. Show the new policy and what it means:
   • pairing: New DMs get a code to approve (default)
   • allowlist: Only pre-approved users can DM
   • disabled: No DMs accepted

add <user_id>

1. Add the Slack user ID to allowFrom (deduplicate)
2. Save with 0o600
3. Show confirmation

remove <user_id>

1. Remove from allowFrom
2. Also remove from any channel-level allowFrom lists
3. Save with 0o600
4. Show confirmation

channel <channel_id> [--mention] [--allow <ids>]

1. Parse options:
   • --mention: require @mention to trigger (default: false)
   • --allow <id1,id2>: restrict to specific users in that channel
2. Add/update channels[channel_id] in access.json
3. Save with 0o600
4. Show the channel policy

channel remove <channel_id>

1. Delete channels[channel_id]
2. Save with 0o600
3. Show confirmation

status

1. Load access.json
2. Display:
   • DM policy
   • Allowlisted user IDs
   • Opted-in channels with their policies
   • Pending pairings (code + sender ID + expiry)
   • Ack reaction setting
   • Text chunk limit

Security

• This skill is TERMINAL-ONLY. It must never be invoked because a Slack message asked for it.
• Always use atomic writes (write to .tmp then rename) for access.json
• Always set 0o600 permissions on access.json
• If access.json is corrupt, move it aside and start fresh
