What is MCP and Why You Need a Slack MCP Client

Model Context Protocol (MCP) transforms AI assistants from simple conversational tools into powerful agents that can take action. With a proper MCP client in Slack, you can:

• Access external data sources and services
• Connect to workplace tools seamlessly
• Complete tasks independently
• Deliver information directly to your team

Simple Steps to Set Up Your Slack MCP Client

2. Choose Claude as your AI model: Select "Anthropic Claude" and customize your system instructions.
3. Connect MCP servers: Add services to extend your AI agent's capabilities. Without leaving Runbear, you can connect 2,500+ MCP servers, such as Gmail, Google Calendar, and more.

Connecting accounts to AI agents

There are two ways to connect service accounts to your AI agent's MCP servers: shared and individual authorization.

Option A: Individual authorization

Each Slack user connects their own account. When a user requests something that requires authorization, the Slack bot will prompt them with a secure link to connect.

No worries — connected accounts are private and accessible only to the individual user.

Option B: Shared authorization

Connect a shared account that your AI agents can use to answer questions and complete tasks.

With this setup, users won't need to authorize access individually — the AI agents will handle requests using the shared connection.
