Why this helps
New workspaces can recreate old questions and duplicate effort when existing document workflows are not visible.
- Makes existing document tools visible at the beginning of a workflow.
- Reduces repeated discovery questions in a new channel.
- Helps the team route early requests to the right existing process.

- 2Create an automation with a prompt to list available parsers when a document-work channel is created.
- 3Select the Slack new channel created trigger and choose the run-report channel.
- 4Test by creating a real Slack channel intended for document work.
Questions about this workflow
Will this run for every new channel?
The Slack trigger fires on channel creation; describe in the prompt which new channels should receive the parser inventory.
Does the workflow configure the new channel?
No. It retrieves the Docparser parser list so members can see existing options.
