Slack opens its Code API to all developers building agents

Slack has made its Slack Code API generally available, letting any developer's agent open dedicated code channels where teams can follow and steer its work.

Launched in August with Anthropic, Cognition, GitHub and Vercel as partners, Slack Code had been limited to a few players. More than 150 customers and partners had asked for access. Agents can add people and files, post updates, then archive the channel. GitHub Copilot opens a code channel in 30% of its agent sessions. Pull request improvements, with comments synced to GitHub, are coming soon.
