deploy-slack-app
Use when a developer wants to deploy, host, or run a Slack app somewhere it keeps working after the local process stops, or mentions Railway, Heroku, `railway up`, `git push heroku`, `slack deploy`, a `deploy` hook in `.slack/hooks.json`, hosting a Socket Mode or Request URL (HTTP) Bolt app, deploying from Windows, graduating an app out of a developer sandbox, or tearing down a deployed app.
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "slackapi/slack-skills-plugin:skills/deploy-slack-app" into this agent's normal skills directory: use the OMGSkills MCP get_skill tool, install only the pinned_install commit and path, verify SKILL.md against pinned_install.skill_md_sha, and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/slackapi/slack-skills-plugin /tmp/slack-skills-plugin && ln -s /tmp/slack-skills-plugin/skills/deploy-slack-app ~/.claude/skills/deploy-slack-appFrom README
Deploy Slack App Take a Slack app that already works locally and deploy it to a hosting provider as a separate Slack app, with its own app ID, that keeps running without the developer's machine. The local development app is unchanged, and Step 5: Deploy explains how the two coexist. This is the step after the slack:test-slack-app skill confirms the app responds. The mechanism is the Slack CLI's deploy hook. Adding a deploy key to the project's .slack/hooks.json replaces Slack's own hosted deployment with a script of your choosing, and the CLI runs that script after it has created and installed the deployed app. That ordering is the whole reason this approach is worth using: the app's bot and app-level tokens are already in the script's environment by the time it runs, so nothing here has to prompt for a secret or store one.
