How I Turned Slack Into an AI Teammate That Opens Pull Requests
TL;DR: A developer builds Slack2PR: an AI teammate that turns ideas or bug reports into GitHub pull requests directly from Slack. It guides requirements, implements, tests, and opens PRs, effectively embedding AI into the normal workflow.
The author automates a chunk of the software workflow by creating Slack2PR, an AI coding teammate accessible from Slack. It handles feature, bug, and question requests with tailored steps: interview requirements, inspect repo, plan, implement, test, and open a PR. The system relies on Hexabot for Slack workflow, Google Gemini for intent and coding tasks, and OpenCode with TanStack AI adapters for code execution. Sandboxed, isolated workspaces clone the target repo per Slack thread for end-to-end delivery. The approach demonstrates AI as an integrated development assistant rather than a separate tool.
Question for the room: What was your experience integrating an AI assistant into your existing development workflow, and which part proved most valuable or challenging?
