ChatGPT-in-Slack

Why we included this project

Teams that live in Slack can get ChatGPT answers without switching tools, and this project is a concrete example of how to build that bridge. It is a serverless Python app designed for AWS Lambda, with three ways to talk to the bot: a channel thread, a private DM, or the Home tab. Context sticks to the thread, so the model remembers earlier messages, which makes tasks like drafting a business email and then tightening it with follow-ups much smoother than starting over each time. Because it was written and maintained by the Slack SDK's author, it reads as a practical tutorial on Slack app patterns like auth and event handling on Lambda. One honest caveat: OpenAI now has an official Slack integration, so the main reasons to pick this up are running your own deployment or learning how the pieces fit.
