| send_messageA | Send a message to a Slack channel or thread. In user-token mode, messages are tagged with :robot_face: so recipients know it was AI-assisted. In bot-token mode, the app identity serves this purpose. NOTE: This tool posts to channels only. DMs are not supported. MENTIONS: Write @username or @groupname naturally — they are auto-resolved. Do NOT construct <@U...> syntax manually. SLACK URLs: When given a Slack URL like .../archives/C0AGCGG628K/p1718033467085279:

Only one tool exists, so there is no risk of confusion between tools. The tool's purpose is clearly described.
With a single tool, naming consistency is perfect. 'send_message' follows a clear verb_noun pattern.
One tool is minimal, but it is appropriate for a simple notification server. While it could be expanded with additional utilities, the scope is well-defined and not excessive.
The tool covers all necessary aspects for sending Slack notifications: channel targeting, threading, formatting, mentions, and URL parsing. No obvious gaps for its intended purpose.
