slack-block-kit — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited slack-block-kit (Agent Skill) and scored it 91/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 1 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
Construct the requested Slack layout or interaction using the receiving surface's schema. The user's explicit instructions take precedence over this skill's guidelines.
Use the requested content, interaction, target Slack method/surface, and any existing payload as input. Infer the surface from code when possible; ask if a missing choice changes the payload. Ordinary text replies do not require blocks.
| Work | Reference |
|---|---|
| Message, modal, App Home, or interaction lifecycle | SURFACES.md |
| Block choice, fields, limits, surface compatibility | BLOCKS.md |
| Buttons, inputs, menus, pickers | ELEMENTS.md |
| Text objects, options, confirmation dialogs | COMPOSITION.md |
| Structured rich-text nesting and inline elements | RICH-TEXT.md |
| start/append/stop streaming, chunks, SDK differences | STREAMING.md |
| Entity unfurls, flexpanes, edits, comments | WORK-OBJECTS.md |
| Compact block/element/limit lookup | CHEATSHEET.md |
Load only the relevant reference or section. Payload construction does not require a Slack connection. Use the separately installed slack-mrkdwn skill for detailed text-formatting questions when available; the composition and rich-text references here cover the required object shapes independently.
mrkdwn uses *bold* and <url|label>; plain_text is literal; markdown blocks use standard Markdown; rich_text uses structured elements.Deliver valid JSON or integration code for the requested surface, with necessary fallback text and any unresolved runtime inputs. Verify payload structure and relevant limits; test live delivery only when requested or already authorized. Creating a payload does not itself authorize posting it.
Use the Slack Block Kit reference and the exact Web API method/SDK schema for current fields and limits that the bundled reference does not establish.
