Credal Copilots can be setup as a custom slack app which users can DM with, and custom slash commands etc can be set.

To do so:

1. Visit: https://api.slack.com/apps
2. hit Create an App --> From a Manifest --> JSON --> paste the blob below You'll want to change everything like [$NAME]
3. Go to the App Home settings ( https://api.slack.com/apps/$$$$APP_ID$$$$/app-home? ) and at the bottom, check "Allow users to send Slash commands and messages from the messages tab"
4. Once done, there’s one more step left, which is to provide the Credentials for this slackApp to Credal. If you are not an admin of your Credal organization or you don’t already know how to do this, reach out to [email protected] to get help.
