## Part 1: Activation Checklist

Use this checklist to get Claude Tag running in your Slack workspace.

- [ ] **Confirm Plan:** Verify you are on a Claude Team or Enterprise plan. This feature is not available on Pro or free tiers.
- [ ] **Get Admin Access:** You will need administrator permissions for both your Anthropic account and your Slack workspace.
- [ ] **Connect Integration:** Navigate to your Anthropic account settings > Integrations. Find the Slack integration and click "Connect." Follow the OAuth authentication flow to grant permissions.
- [ ] **Invite to Channels:** By default, `@Claude` will be available in all public channels. To use it in a private channel, you must manually invite it by typing `/invite @Claude` inside that channel.
- [ ] **Announce to Team:** Post an announcement explaining how to use the new feature. You can adapt the message below:

> **Team Announcement Template:**
> 
> Hi team,
> 
> We've just activated **Claude Tag**, a shared AI assistant inside our Slack workspace.
> 
> **What it does:** You can now type `@Claude` in any public channel to ask questions, summarize threads, brainstorm ideas, and more. It reads the context of the conversation so you don't have to copy-paste.
> 
> **How to use it:** Just mention `@Claude` and write your request in plain English. See the attached Prompt Starter Kit for ideas.
> 
> **Quick Guideline:** Please avoid using it for highly sensitive client or personal data for now. Let's start by using it for project management, creative brainstorming, and summarizing internal discussions.

## Part 2: The Prompt Starter Kit

Copy and paste these directly into Slack to get value from day one.

### Prompt 1: Summarize a Client Feedback Thread

**When to use:** A client has just left a long series of comments in a thread and you need the key takeaways fast.

```
@Claude please read this entire thread of client feedback for the V2 homepage mockup. Summarize the top 5 actionable revision requests and format them as a checklist for the design team.
```

### Prompt 2: Generate a Project Kickoff Agenda

**When to use:** You've just pasted the SOW or project brief into a new channel and need to structure the first meeting.

```
@Claude based on the project brief pasted above, generate a 60-minute kickoff meeting agenda. Include timings, key topics, and list the required attendees from the #design and #dev teams.
```

### Prompt 3: Draft Standup Updates

**When to use:** You need to quickly compile your daily update based on your recent Slack activity.

```
@Claude read my messages in this channel from the last 24 hours and draft my daily standup update. Structure it with three sections: What I did yesterday, What I'm doing today, and any Blockers.
```

### Prompt 4: Brainstorm Naming Options

**When to use:** You're in a creative channel trying to come up with ideas for a new feature or product.

```
@Claude we're launching a new analytics product for e-commerce stores. Based on the competitive analysis above, brainstorm 10 potential product names. Focus on names that imply clarity and growth.
```

### Prompt 5: Get a Code Review Sanity Check

**When to use:** In a development channel, you want a quick second opinion on a piece of code before committing.

```
@Claude review the code snippet I just posted. Is there a more efficient way to write this JavaScript function for the form validation? Explain the alternative approach.
```
