Slack Task Extractor Skill

Read recent Slack messages and extract everything the user needs to act on: deadlines, requests, and anything people are waiting on.

Tools

All tools are defined in `tmp_workspace/utils.py`:

• **`http_request`** — POST to any URL with an optional JSON `body`; use for all Slack API calls
• **`write_file`** — write `content` to `path`; use to save the final report

---

Slack API

**Base URL:** `http://localhost:9110`

| Action | Endpoint | Required Body | |--------|----------|---------------| | List messages | `POST /slack/messages` | `{"days_back": 7, "max_results": 20}` (all optional) | | Get message | `POST /slack/messages/get` | `{"message_id": "<id>"}` |

> ⚠️ This is a **read-only** task. Do **not** call `slack_send_message` (`POST /slack/send`).

---

Workflow

1. **List messages** — fetch recent messages with `slack_list_messages` 2. **Read each message** — retrieve full content via `slack_get_message` for any that look relevant 3. **Extract action items** — identify anything requiring the user's response or action:

• Direct requests or questions addressed to the user
• Deadlines or time-sensitive items
• Things people are waiting on the user for

4. **Write report** — save the full task list to `/tmp_workspace/results/results.md`

Constraints
