@Roomote Just Joined Your Slack
Use Roo Code Directly From Slack
Your team is mid-discussion. Requirements are emerging. Edge cases are being raised.
Someone says, “This is getting complex. We should write this down.”
No one wants to stop and create a doc.
Now there’s another option: mention @Roomote in the thread.
Roo Code’s agent reacts with 👀. You can pick an agent, or let Roo Code handle it for you. Then choose a repository. Roo Code reads your entire discussion and returns a structured spec, right in the thread. Your team refines it. Then you call @Roomote to build it. A branch gets pushed. A PR opens. Work gets shipped.
Discussion → plan → code. Without leaving Slack.
What this actually looks like
Here’s a real flow:
> Designer: What if we add a dark mode toggle to the settings page?
> PM: Users have been asking for this. Should persist across sessions.
> Engineer: Need to think about system preferences too. Auto vs manual.
> PM: Good points. Let’s not lose this.
> @Roomote plan out a dark mode feature based on our discussion. Include the toggle, persistence, and system preference detection.
The Planner agent reads the thread, understands what “this” means, and produces a spec. The team reviews it in Slack. When it looks good:
> Engineer: This looks good. Let’s build it.
> @Roomote implement this plan in the frontend-web repo.
The Coder agent creates a branch and opens a PR. The engineer reviews and merges.
The agents know your thread
This is the part that’s incredibly powerful:
You can be mid-conversation with a colleague, debugging something confusing. After a few back-and-forth messages, you just type:
> @Roomote why is this happening?
And it knows what “this” means. The agent reads the thread history before responding. No need to re-explain the context you just spent 20 messages establishing.
Non-technical team members can use this too
A CSM pastes an error in Slack:
> “Customer is seeing `Error 403: Token validation failed` when trying to export. Anyone know what this is?”
Usually: silence. Engineers are heads-down. The CSM escalates urgently or waits.
With @Roomote, the CSM asks the agent to explain. The agent reads the codebase, explains what’s happening in plain language, and can even push a fix branch if needed. The CSM updates the customer without waiting for engineering.
PMs can investigate hypotheses. Support can triage issues. Engineering gets pulled in only when humans need to make decisions.
Safe by design
Agents never touch main or master directly. They push branches and open PRs. You review. You approve.
The boundary stays with you and your team.
This matters. Agents produce artifacts; humans decide what ships.
