Frequently Asked Questions

What is Slack MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard for connecting AI agents to external tools. "Slack MCP" usually means one of two things. Slack's own MCP server lets an AI client outside Slack, such as Claude or Cursor, search channels and send messages. An MCP client inside Slack works the other way: an agent that lives in your channels calls other MCP servers to look up data or take action. Runbear is the second kind.

Does Slack have an official MCP server?

Yes. As of October 2026, Slack's developer docs describe the Slack MCP server at https://mcp.slack.com/mcp. It uses Streamable HTTP, and each MCP client must be backed by a registered Slack app that is published in the Slack directory or internal to the workspace. Slack lists Claude.ai, Claude Code, Perplexity, and Cursor as partner clients.

Can Slackbot use MCP servers?

As of October 2026, Slack's docs describe a Slackbot MCP Client that lets developers connect remote MCP servers to Slackbot through a Slack app. Servers must use Streamable HTTP, a user can have up to 5 active MCP servers at a time, and the user approves each third-party tool call, once or always, before Slackbot runs it. Runbear is an alternative when you want a team agent you configure in a dashboard, with its own instructions, knowledge sources, and tools, that runs in Slack and Microsoft Teams.

How do I connect an MCP server to a Runbear agent in Slack?

Open the agent's Tools tab. Pick a server from the managed catalog and complete its OAuth sign-in, or choose Add Custom MCP and enter a server name, an HTTPS server URL, the transport, and the authentication. Runbear performs a handshake and lists the tools it discovered, and the agent calls them when a message in Slack needs them.

Which transports and authentication does Runbear support for custom MCP servers?

Streamable HTTP, the recommended default, and SSE for older servers that use long-lived event streams. Authentication can be OAuth, a static header such as an API key or bearer token, or none, for servers protected another way such as an IP allowlist or VPN.

Can I use a local or STDIO MCP server?

Not directly. Runbear runs in the cloud, so the server must be reachable over HTTPS. Run a local or STDIO server behind a tunnel that gives it a stable HTTPS URL, such as ngrok, Cloudflare Tunnel, or Tailscale Funnel, and pair the tunnel with static header authentication so only Runbear's requests are accepted.

Whose permissions does the agent use when it calls an MCP tool?

For catalog servers and custom servers that use OAuth, you choose Per-User or Shared. Per-User means each member links their own account and the agent acts with that member's permissions. Shared means one account serves everyone on the agent, so every user inherits that account's access. A custom server with a static header uses that one credential for everyone.

Can admins control which MCP tools an agent can use?

Yes, with tool approvals, which Runbear is rolling out gradually. When an admin turns on Require Tool Approval, new MCP tools added to agents wait for admin approval before they can be used. Approvals can be narrowed to individual tools, so you can allow a server's read-only tools and withhold the ones that write. Contact support@runbear.io to enable it.
