Summary

The upstream PR rearchitects the Slack agent install flow so that Slack consent runs first and the dashboard binds the workspace afterward. The change introduces two user-visible behaviors that previously weren't documented:

  • Reinstall refreshes the token in place. When you reinstall the Slack app into a workspace that's already connected to your organization, Mintlify silently refreshes the stored bot token without requiring a re-bind, so existing channels, threads, and per-user integrations stay intact.
  • One workspace, one organization. A Slack workspace can only be connected to a single Mintlify organization at a time. Attempting to install into a workspace that's already bound elsewhere now fails with a clear error.

Changes

  • Added a "Reconnect or reinstall the agent" subsection to agent/slack.mdx describing how reinstalls behave.
  • Added a Note callout under "Connect your Slack workspace" explaining the one-org constraint.
  • Lightly tightened the existing install steps to reflect the consent-first ordering.

Note

Low Risk
Documentation-only updates describing Slack install/reinstall behavior; no runtime or security-sensitive code changes.

Overview
Updates the Slack agent setup docs to match the consent-first install flow (grant permissions in Slack, then confirm binding in the dashboard).

Adds a note that each Slack workspace can only be connected to one Mintlify organization, and documents a new Reconnect or reinstall section explaining that reinstalling refreshes the bot token in place without re-binding and keeps existing channel/thread/user integrations intact.
