@ai-devkit/channel-connector

Bridge AI DevKit agent sessions to external messaging channels.

This package powers the ai-devkit channel commands. Use it when you need the lower-level connector layer that routes messages between running AI coding agents and channels such as Telegram and private Slack DMs.

What It Provides

• Channel abstraction — Common interface for external messaging channels
• Agent routing — Forward prompts to running AI coding agent sessions
• Response delivery — Send agent output back through the connected channel
• Connector foundation — Shared utilities for adding future channels

Typical Use

Most users should use the CLI:

ai-devkit channel connect telegram
ai-devkit channel connect slack --name work-slack
ai-devkit channel start --agent <agent-name>

Use this package directly only when building custom channel integrations or extending AI DevKit's remote-control surface.

Slack uses the official @slack/socket-mode and @slack/web-api clients. The current proof of concept is a user-owned, single-workspace, DM-only Socket Mode app without Slack-user authorization. Use it only in a disposable/private workspace with a non-sensitive agent session. Public channels, OAuth distribution, files, and multi-workspace routing are not supported.
