Workflow overview
Why this workflow matters

The assistant only answers from the channel’s actual messages—no guessing. ⚙️ Setup Instructions 1️⃣ Set Up OpenAI Connection Go to OpenAI Platform Navigate to OpenAI Billing Add funds to your billing account Copy your API key into the OpenAI credentials in AlekSystem 2️⃣ Connect Slack API Create an app → <https://api.slack.com/apps> OAuth & Permissions → add scopes you need to read channel history (typical: channels:history, groups:history, im:history, mpim:history, plus channels:read, groups:read, users:read.
