Find Slack channels

Identify and get insights on Slack channels relevant to a specific project or topic.

Prompt detail

I am looking for Slack channels where I can ask questions about: {{Project, product, or topic}}
Search for {{(topic) app:slack}} to find recent discussions and deduce which channels might have the most authoritative content. List each channel only once. Provide a link to each channel and include a summary of the recent discussions.

What the prompt does

Finding the right Slack channel for a specific project or question can be frustrating, especially in large organizations with hundreds of channels. You might waste time scrolling through channel lists or asking colleagues where to post.

With this prompt, you provide a project name, product, or topic, and remio searches your Slack workspace for recent discussions matching that subject. It identifies which channels contain the most authoritative conversations, deduplicates results, and returns a clean list with direct channel links and summaries of what's being discussed.

When to use

• You've just joined a new team or company and need to find where discussions about a specific product or initiative happen in Slack.
• A cross-functional project is underway and you want to identify all channels where stakeholders are actively discussing it.
• You're researching a technical topic and want to find channels with subject-matter experts already sharing insights.
• You need to post an announcement or question but aren't sure which channel will reach the right audience.
• You're auditing Slack channel usage to consolidate redundant channels around the same topic.

Prompt examples

Input: I am looking for Slack channels where I can ask questions about: Kubernetes migration to v1.28
Search for Kubernetes migration app:slack to find recent discussions and deduce which channels might have the most authoritative content. List each channel only once. Provide a link to each channel and include a summary of the recent discussions.

remio responds:
Here are the Slack channels with recent activity around the Kubernetes v1.28 migration:

1. #platform-engineering — Active discussions over the past two weeks about deprecated API compatibility in v1.28, with Sara M. and Dev R. sharing testing scripts for pre-migration validation.
2. #k8s-ops — Several threads from last week focused on cluster upgrade sequencing and rollback strategies specific to the 1.27-to-1.28 jump.
3. #infra-incidents — A post-mortem from March 12 references a staging migration failure related to PodDisruptionBudget changes in v1.28.
4. #devops-general — Lighter discussion, mostly links to upstream release notes and a poll about migration timelines.

I'd recommend starting with #platform-engineering and #k8s-ops for the most in-depth technical guidance.

Tip 1: Be specific with your topic — searching for "Kubernetes v1.28 migration" yields far more targeted channel results than just "Kubernetes."

Tip 2: After identifying the right channels, follow up by asking remio to summarize the last week of discussion in a specific channel to get caught up before posting your question.

Tip 3: Include product or project codenames your team uses internally, since Slack discussions often reference those rather than official names.
