What this skill does for you
Use when a developer asks which Slack Web API method does something, needs a method's OAuth scopes or token type, wants to call or test a family.method endpoint (chat.postMessage, conversations.history, users.info, views.open), is handling cursor pagination (next_cursor) or rate limits (tier/ratelimited/Retry-After), or is debugging errors like missing_scope, invalid_auth, or channel_not_found. Also trigger on a pasted slack.com/api/ URL or docs.slack.dev/reference/methods link.
