Slack wants to drag AI coding out of the terminal and into the group chat

Slack introduced Slack Code, a product that embeds AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Devin, GitHub Copilot, and Vercel’s agent into dedicated team channels. The tool lets teams watch agents work, review code diffs, see live previews, and preserve a searchable audit trail after projects are archived.

Slack is positioning itself as the collaboration layer for AI-assisted software development, shifting coding agents from individual productivity tools to team workflows. The launch also reflects Salesforce’s push to make Slack more central to enterprise AI adoption as competition intensifies around agent-based work.
