Hi Claude! Could you help me develop a unique voice for an audience? If you need more information from me, ask me 1-2 key questions right away. If you think I should upload any documents that would help you do a better job, let me know. You can use the tools you have access to— like Google Drive, web search, etc.—if they’ll help you better accomplish this task. Do not use analysis tool. Please keep your responses friendly, brief and conversational. Please execute the task as soon as you can—an artifact would be great if it makes sense. If using an artifact, consider what kind of artifact (interactive, visual, checklist, etc.) might be most helpful for this specific task. Thanks for your help!

To share the file, pass real Slack conversation IDs (C..., G..., or D...) in conversation_ids; do not pass U... user IDs. where U15CTCJ83 is the user\'s Slack ID. - When user references are used in their own line, they will render as larger cards, if referenced inline they will render as special text. - When writing channel IDs, you should format them as:  where C15CTCJ83 is the channel\'s Slack ID. Always use the channel\'s ID, NEVER use the channel name. - NEVER output a channel as <#C1234567890> or a user as <@U1234567890>, even when part of a text quote, instead use the format above. - Links should be formatted as: [link text](https://example.com). Do not surround the link in angle brackets. - IMPORTANT: Only use these URL schemes in links: http://, https://, mailto:, tel:, ftp://, slack://, or relative paths starting with /. Other schemes like javascript:, data:, file: will be automatically removed from the canvas. - Images should be formatted as:  - Image syntax must appear only in a top-level, stand-alone line. Images are not supported in other elements - Salesforce records should be formatted as:  where <org_id> is the Salesforce org ID and <record_id> is the Salesforce record ID, the org ID and record ID should be the full IDs which would be 18 characters long. Example:  - Salesforce records syntax must appear only in a top-level, stand-alone line. Salesforce records are not supported in other elements - Quoted text should be formatted as: > This is quoted text, but you should only use quotes on their own line. - Slack-style emojis are supported, e.g. :tada: or :wave: - Use only ATX headings #, ##, ###. NEVER use deeper headings ####-######. - Do not place headings inside list items. - In list items, allow only paragraphs with inline formatting. - Thematic breaks (---, **, ___) are only allowed at the top level. - When nesting lists, do not mix list types: - Numbered lists can only contain nested numbered lists, and cannot contain nested bulleted lists - Bulleted lists can only contain nested bulleted lists, and cannot contain nested numbered lists - Code blocks are not allowed inside list items. - If a table cell contains multi-line content, <br> can be used, e.g. 'line one<br>line two' - The title provided through the `title` field will be used as the title of the canvas.

Cannot post to externally shared (Slack Connect) channels. Thread replies: set thread_ts to parent message timestamp, reply_broadcast=true to also post to channel. Use slack_search_channels to find channel IDs, slack_search_users to find user IDs. If user has not reviewed the message, use slack_send_message_draft instead.slack_send_message instead) - User wants to schedule a message (use slack_send_message with scheduling) - User wants to create drafts in multiple channels (call this tool multiple times) - Channel is externally shared (Slack Connect channel) - drafts in externally shared channels are not supported Input Parameters: - channel_id: Single channel ID where the draft should be created - message: The draft message content using standard markdown. Supports bold, _italic_, code, ~strikethrough~, >blockquotes, lists, links, and code blocks. - thread_ts (optional): Timestamp of the parent message to create a draft reply in a thread (e.g., "1234567890.123456") Output: Returns channel_link - a Slack web client URL (e.g., https://app.slack.com/client/T123/C456) that opens the channel in the web app where the draft was created. Finding value for channel_id input: - Use slack_search_users tool to find user ID for DMs, then use their user_id as the channel_id Error Codes: - channel_not_found: Invalid channel ID or user does not have access to the channel - draft_already_exists: A draft already exists for this channel (user should edit or delete the existing draft first) - failed_to_create_draft: Draft creation failed for an unknown reason - mcp_externally_shared_channel_restricted: Cannot create drafts in externally shared channels (Slack Connect channels) Notes: - Drafts are created as attached drafts (linked to the specific channel) - User must have write access to the channel - Only one attached draft is allowed per channel - if a draft already exists, you'll get an erroraction=replace WITHOUT providing a section_id will OVERWRITE THE ENTIRE CANVAS content. This is destructive and irreversible. You MUST call slack_read_canvas first to retrieve section IDs, then pass the appropriate section_id to replace only the target section. Action Behavior With section_id: - append: Adds new content to the END of the specified section's block (inserted after the last content under that section, just before the next header section) - prepend: Inserts new content immediately AFTER the targeted element. If the section_id is a header, content appears after the header line but before the section's existing body content. If the section_id is a non-header element (paragraph, list, table, etc.), content is inserted directly after that element. - replace: Replaces ONLY the specified section's content block (safe) Important: The section_id_mapping contains IDs for ALL content elements — headers (#, ##, ###), paragraphs, lists, tables, and callouts — not just header sections. For best results with append/prepend, target a header section_id to insert within that section's block. Without section_id: - append: Adds content to the END of the canvas (after the last section) - prepend: Inserts content after the canvas title but before existing body content (the title is preserved) - replace: ⚠️ REPLACES THE ENTIRE CANVAS — avoid unless user explicitly wants full replacement Args: canvas_id (str, required): ID of the canvas to update (e.g., "F1234567890") action (str, required): One of "append", "prepend", or "replace". Defaults to "append" content (str, required): Markdown-formatted content to insert or replace section_id (Optional[str]): Section ID from slack_read_canvas. Can reference any content element (header, paragraph, list, table, callout). For append/prepend, targeting a header section_id is recommended as it operates on the header's content block. append inserts after the last content in that section's block (before the next header); prepend inserts immediately after the targeted element; replace overwrites the section's block. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED for replace action to avoid overwriting the entire canvas. Returns: canvas_id (str): ID of the updated canvas canvas_url (str): URL link to the updated canvas — always share this with the user section_id_mapping (dict): Updated mapping of section IDs to their markdown content after the edit. Each key is a section ID string (e.g., "temp:C:abc123") and each value is the markdown content of that element. Contains IDs for ALL content elements (headers, paragraphs, lists, tables, callouts), not just headers. Use these section IDs in subsequent slack_update_canvas calls to target specific sections, enabling multi-step editing workflows without needing to call slack_read_canvas again between edits. When to Use - User wants to add content to an existing canvas (append/prepend) - User wants to update a specific section of a canvas (replace with section_id) - User wants to rewrite an entire canvas (replace without section_id — only if explicitly requested) When NOT to Use - User wants to create a new canvas (use slack_create_canvas instead) - User wants to read a canvas (use slack_read_canvas instead) - User only wants to send a simple message (use slack_send_message instead) Recommended Workflow for Editing a Section 1. Call slack_read_canvas with the canvas_id to get content and section IDs 2. Identify the target section_id from the section_id_mapping 3. Call slack_update_canvas with action=replace and the section_id Examples Append to the end of a canvas (no section_id): slack_update_canvas(canvas_id="F0123ABC456", action="append", content="## New Section Here is the appended content.") Append to the end of a specific section: slack_update_canvas(canvas_id="F0123ABC456", action="append", section_id="temp:C:abc123", content="## New Section This content is added at the end of the specified section.") Replace a specific section (safe — only that section is changed): slack_update_canvas(canvas_id="F0123ABC456", action="replace", section_id="temp:C:abc123", content="## Updated Section This replaces only the targeted section.") Prepend within a specific section (inserts right after the section header, before existing body content): slack_update_canvas(canvas_id="F0123ABC456", action="prepend", section_id="temp:C:abc123", content="This paragraph appears right after the section header, before the section's existing body content.") Error Codes: - not_supported_free_team: Canvas operations not supported on free teams - canvas_not_found: Invalid canvas_id or user lacks access - invalid_content: Content format is invalid - permission_denied: User lacks permission to edit this canvas - section_not_found: The provided section_id does not exist in the canvas Canvas Formatting Guidelines: REQUIRED: Must be a non-empty string when updating canvas content. Only omit this field if you are updating ONLY the title. The canvas content, formatted as Canvas-flavored Markdown. Canvas-flavored Markdown is different from Slack message formatting. When creating content for Canvases, adhere to the following Canvas-only rules: - The content should be formatted as standard Markdown, including headers, lists, links, checklists, tables, and other Markdown formatting. - When writing user IDs, you should format them as:  where U15CTCJ83 is the user\'s Slack ID. - When user references are used in their own line, they will render as larger cards, if referenced inline they will render as special text. - When writing channel IDs, you should format them as:  where C15CTCJ83 is the channel\'s Slack ID. Always use the channel\'s ID, NEVER use the channel name. - NEVER output a channel as <#C1234567890> or a user as <@U1234567890>, even when part of a text quote, instead use the format above. - Links should be formatted as: [link text](https://example.com). Do not surround the link in angle brackets. - IMPORTANT: Only use these URL schemes in links: http://, https://, mailto:, tel:, ftp://, slack://, or relative paths starting with /. Other schemes like javascript:, data:, file: will be automatically removed from the canvas. - Images should be formatted as:  - Image syntax must appear only in a top-level, stand-alone line.
