Turn policy discussion reactions into rule inventories

Mark a Slack thread and get the profile's custom rule inventory automatically.

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

List Custom Rules for Profile

Tool to retrieve custom rules associated with a specific profile. Use after confirming the profile ID. Omit `folder_id` to list rules in the root folder.

Why this helps

Rule inventory work gets deferred because it feels separate from the original discussion.

  • Capture follow through at the moment of agreement
  • Create consistent rule inventories
  • Support faster policy reviews

  • 3Describe that a selected reaction should list custom rules for the profile and summarize notable states.
  • 4Pick Message Reaction Added, set the optional emoji filter, and choose a report destination.
  • 5Test on one real policy message.

Questions about this workflow
