# mcp-slack-crunchtools

Secure read-only MCP server for Slack workspaces. Provides Claude Code (and other MCP clients) with access to your Slack channels, messages, users, and files without any write permissions.

## Features

- **Read-only**: 15 tools, all read-only. Never posts, edits, or deletes anything.
- **Secure**: 6-layer security model (input validation, token handling, client hardening, output sanitization, runtime protection, supply chain security).
- **User OAuth Token**: Uses `xoxp-` tokens for user-scoped access to your workspace.
- **No SDK dependency**: Uses `httpx` directly for minimal, auditable HTTP calls.

## Quick Start

### Using uvx (Recommended)

```bash
claude mcp add mcp-slack-crunchtools \
    --env SLACK_USER_TOKEN=xoxp-your-token \
    -- uvx mcp-slack-crunchtools
```

### Using Container

```bash
claude mcp add mcp-slack-crunchtools \
    --env SLACK_USER_TOKEN=xoxp-your-token \
    -- podman run -i --rm -e SLACK_USER_TOKEN quay.io/crunchtools/mcp-slack
```

### Local Development

```bash
claude mcp add mcp-slack-crunchtools \
    --env SLACK_USER_TOKEN=xoxp-your-token \
    -- uv run mcp-slack-crunchtools
```
