Slack Integration

Mention @orca in Slack to file tasks or dispatch coding agents

@orca in Slack is an agent, not just a task-filer. Mention it in a channel or DM it, describe what you want, and it acts.

The Orca Slack bot spinning up a workspace and reporting back in-thread

What It Can Do

  • Create, update, search, and triage tasks from the conversation it's standing in, pulling assignees, statuses, and priorities from your team's Linear/Orca setup
  • Spin up a cloud workspace and launch a coding agent to actually do the work. Code-change requests ("bump our Sentry SDK to v9 across all apps") default to spawning a workspace and agent rather than filing a ticket
  • Read the thread or channel history on its own to gather context, no copy-pasting prior messages
  • Search the web with citations when a request needs current information
  • Unfurl Orca task and workspace links with rich previews

Setup

  1. In the dashboard, go to Integrations → Slack
  2. Click Connect to install the Orca Slack app (OAuth)
  3. Mention @orca in any channel, or DM the bot, and describe what you want done

Good First Prompts

@orca file a bug: the export button 500s on reports over 10k rows.
Assign to whoever owns reporting.
@orca bump our Sentry SDK to v9 across all apps and open a PR.

The second one creates a workspace, runs an agent, and reports back in-thread.
