Sclack is a terminal-based CLI client for Slack written in Python, aiming to bring a full-featured Slack experience to the command line. It supports multiple workspaces via Slack tokens and can render images as ASCII art using caca-utils.
Use cases
- read and send Slack messages from the terminal
- use Slack without leaving the command line
- manage multiple Slack workspaces in a TUI
- render Slack image attachments as ASCII art in the terminal
- use Slack over SSH on a remote server
When to choose
- you live in the terminal and want Slack there too
- you're working on a headless server or over SSH
- you prefer lightweight keyboard-driven chat clients
When to avoid
- you need a polished, fully-featured Slack experience
- your workspace doesn't allow legacy tokens and you want simple setup
- you need reliable, actively maintained software - the project is alpha and updates are infrequent
