# Slack

Transform Slack conversations into dev-ready work. Connect Korey and Slack to capture ideas, bugs, and get answers without leaving your workflow or losing context.

Mention Korey (`@Korey`) in a channel, thread, or DM to ask questions, get help, or create stories, issues, and epics. Korey understands the surrounding conversation and pulls in relevant context from your connected product management tools—so work keeps moving without leaving Slack.

### Chat with Korey in Slack <a href="#setup-the-shortcut-connector" id="setup-the-shortcut-connector"></a>

[Once authenticated](#setup-the-shortcut-connector-1), @mention Korey (`@Korey` ) in a Slack channel or thread to get started:

• @korey log this bug in GitHub\
• @korey what did our team ship last week?\
• @korey check the codebase for where this is implemented\
• @korey create a doc summarizing this security discussion

Korey will pull in relevant context from the surrounding conversation and the other tools that are connected to your Korey account.

**Turn conversations into dev-ready work** \
