korotovsky/slack-mcp-server
A specific implementation of a Slack MCP server.
- Slack MCP conversations_search_messages fails with a bot token (needs xoxp user token)
Fixes Slack message search failing through the MCP server on a bot token. Use when search tools fail but posting and listing work. Not for channel membership or scope issues.
- Slack MCP DXT passes the literal text ${user_config.xoxb_token} as the token
Fixes the Slack MCP desktop extension failing auth because the token placeholder was never expanded. Use when the DXT install fails with auth errors and logs show the literal placeholder. Not for manually configured servers.
- Slack MCP missing_scope
Fixes Slack MCP tools failing with missing_scope. Use when the bot is in the channel and the token works, but a specific tool is refused. Not for token type or channel membership issues.
- Slack MCP channel_not_found / not_in_channel
Fixes Slack MCP tools failing with channel_not_found or not_in_channel. Use when the channel ID looks right but calls fail. Not for token or scope errors.
- Slack MCP not_allowed_token_type on conversations_unreads
Fixes the Slack MCP server failing conversations_unreads with not_allowed_token_type. Use when other Slack tools work but unread counts fail. Not for missing_scope or channel errors.
