How does it know when a task is finished?

The skill parses the Claude Code conversation transcript to identify TodoWrite tool calls that have transitioned to a 'completed' status.

Does this skill work with multiple Slack channels?

Yes, you can define multiple profiles in your config file, each with its own webhook URL, and switch between them using the SLACK_NOTIFY_PROFILE variable.

What information is included in the Slack message?

The notification includes a task summary, the total execution duration, a list of modified files, and repository metadata like the branch name.

Can I disable the automatic notifications?

Yes, you can disable auto-triggers by setting SLACK_NOTIFY_AUTO_TRIGGER=false in your configuration or environment variables.

Do I need to set environment variables for the Slack webhook?

No, while environment variables are supported, the recommended method is using a configuration file at ~/.config/claude-slack-notify/config.json.
