How to connect Slack Explorer MCP
Slack Explorer MCP runs locally from a container image in an OCI registry such as Docker Hub or GitHub Container Registry: ghcr.io/shibayu36/slack-explorer-mcp:0.12.0. It speaks MCP over stdio, so the client starts it as a program and talks to it through standard input and output. It needs Docker or another OCI container runtime; started with docker run — the usual command is docker run -i --rm ghcr.io/shibayu36/slack-explorer-mcp:0.12.0.
In the mcpServers JSON format that many desktop and editor MCP clients read, the entry looks like this (placeholders in angle brackets):
{
"mcpServers": {
"slack-explorer-mcp": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"ghcr.io/shibayu36/slack-explorer-mcp:0.12.0"
]
}
}
