What happened
Slack is rolling out Slack Code, a new feature that creates dedicated channels where teams can vibe-code together with AI agents without hopping between tools and conversations.
The launch includes open, project-specific code channels with dedicated user tabs, plus tools to compare coding changes and preview HTML output before the product ships.
The announcement describes Slack Code as a way to keep coding collaboration inside Slack instead of scattering it across separate applications.
Why it matters
By moving vibe-coding into the same platform where teams already chat, Slack is positioning itself as a central hub for AI-assisted development rather than just a messaging tool.
The focus on open channels, change comparison, and HTML previews suggests Slack wants to make code review and iteration feel as conversational as normal team chat.
This could lower the barrier for trying AI-generated code, since teams can experiment and collaborate on code without leaving their existing workflow.
Key facts
Slack is introducing Slack Code, which includes open, project-specific code channels with dedicated user tabs.
Slack Code features tools that compare coding changes to previous versions.
The feature also lets teams preview HTML output before shipping a project.
What to watch next
Watch for whether Slack Code integrates with other developer tools or expands beyond HTML previews to support more programming languages and outputs.
It will be interesting to see how teams adopt these channels for everyday coding and whether AI agents become more embedded in Slack's standard collaboration flow.
