Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want Slack and Wachete to do together? Give your AI client this address. `https://mcp.apiant.ai` One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser. ### Set it up in your client ### Claude Code Run this in the directory you want to work in. `claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai` Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens. [Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code) ### Claude, web and desktop Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Cursor Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL.

APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) Wachete watches the pages your team cares about, and Slack is where people already talk. Connecting them means a change on a tracked page shows up in the right channel or direct message, with the captured diff attached, and lets you create, update or remove Wachete monitors from Slack activity such as a pinned link or a reaction.

Identify the monitor by its id. Check frequency is in seconds (86400 = daily) and is ignored if not positive; the true/false options take the words true or false; alerts, notification endpoints, headers and proxies take JSON. Returns the monitor id, name and URL after the update plus the full monitor record. ## Each app on its own - [ **Slack** Slack is a messaging platform for teams.

Yes. On a Wachete change notification the agent can call Get monitor data for the diff and include it in the Slack message it sends, and it tests every scenario before the setup goes live. ### ### Can we manage Wachete monitors without leaving Slack? Yes. Slack events such as a pinned item, a posted message or an added reaction can trigger Create monitor, Update monitor or Delete monitor in Wachete, using the URL or monitor name found in the Slack item. ### ### What can start an automation from Slack? Any of Slack's 15 triggers in the catalog, including New Pinned Item, New Reaction Added, New Channel and New Channel (instant). Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Wachete when something happens in Slack? Any of Wachete's 7 actions, including Create monitor, Delete monitor, Get monitor data and Update monitor. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Wachete to Slack? Yes. When something happens in Wachete, your agent can act in Slack too. This page covers both directions: Wachete's triggers and Slack's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Slack or Wachete? No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. ### ### Can my AI client use Slack and Wachete without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
