@luosc Modified README to include steps for generating user token and adding relevant scopes
Description
Slack MCP tool does not support the tool to post messages to channels/private messages on behalf of the user. This requires a new User Token to be added and new tools to be implemented.
Server Details
Motivation and Context
It would be a nice feature to allow the tool to post messages on behalf of the user. Currently, only the bot can post messages. Posting messages on behalf of the user makes it more personal and adds a human touch which messages from bot currently don't have.
How Has This Been Tested?
I have tested this with Claude Desktop client and local ollama mcp-client
Breaking Changes
No. The user token is optional
