Closes #276.

Why

This adapter owns the Slack channel path segment contract and has moved it twice:

form when
<channelId>__<slug> current — 69761f13 "v2 parity", 2026-05-12
<slug>--<channelId> legacy, adapter-slack <= 0.2.2
<channelId> bare

The forward direction is owned here (channelSegmentV2 / channelSegmentLegacy). The inverse existed here too — but only privately, inside writeback.ts's extractSlackChannel. So any consumer needing to recover a channel id from a path had to re-implement the contract.

Cloud did, and it broke. When the v2 form landed, Cloud's watch matcher still assumed bare ids, so /slack/channels/C123/** stopped matching /slack/channels/C123__general/messages/…. Every channel-scoped Slack trigger silently stopped firing — agents stopped waking on @mention, with no error anywhere, for months. The only agents still working were ones mis-scoped to /slack/channels/**, which wake for every message in the workspace and boot a sandbox each time.

What this does

Exports the inverse so there is one implementation to keep in step:

export function slackChannelIdFromPathSegment(segment: string): string | null

extractSlackChannel now consumes it, so the resolver and any downstream matcher cannot drift.

Two deliberate choices:

  • Returns null when no canonical id is recoverable, rather than guessing. The best-effort #name fallback stays in writeback.ts, where it is appropriate — a watch matcher must never silently match a guess, which is the failure mode that started this.
  • Keyed off the ID, never the slug. Slack channel names may contain underscores that slugification lossily replaces, so the id token is the only reliable part of either round-trip form.

Validation

  • packages/slack suite: 113 tests pass (4 new)
  • tsc --noEmit -p packages/slack/tsconfig.json: clean
  • New cases cover all three forms, underscore-bearing names in both round-trip shapes, unrecoverable segments returning null, and percent-encoded plus malformed escapes

Follow-up

cloud#3231 currently carries a local copy of this parser to unblock channel-scoped agents now. Once this is released and Cloud's dependency is bumped, that copy should be replaced with this export — turning "the contract moved and a downstream matcher silently rotted" into a compile-time coupling.

Review in cubic

…t inverse

This adapter owns the channel path segment contract and has moved it twice:
`<channelId>__<slug>` (v2), `<slug>--<channelId>` (<= 0.2.2), and bare
`<channelId>`. The forward direction is owned here; the inverse existed here
too, but only privately inside the writeback resolver, so consumers had to
re-implement it.

Cloud did, and it broke. When the v2 form landed, Cloud's watch matcher still
assumed bare ids, so every channel-scoped Slack trigger silently stopped
matching its own events — agents stopped waking on @mention, with no error
anywhere, for months. Only agents mis-scoped to `/slack/channels/**` kept
working, waking on every message in the workspace.

Export the inverse so there is one implementation to keep in step, and have
`extractSlackChannel` consume it. Returning `null` when no canonical id is
recoverable leaves the best-effort `#name` guess to writeback, where it is
appropriate — a watch matcher must not silently match a guess.

Both round-trip forms are keyed off the ID, never the slug: Slack channel names
may contain underscores that slugification lossily replaces.

Closes #276.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Slack package adds a public inverse for channel path segments. The resolver supports current, legacy, and bare channel ID formats, handles malformed URL escapes, and is used by writeback channel extraction.

Changes

Slack channel path ID resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Channel path resolver contract
packages/slack/src/path-mapper.ts, packages/slack/src/index.ts, packages/slack/src/path-mapper.test.ts
Adds and exports slackChannelIdFromPathSegment. Tests cover supported formats, invalid inputs, URL decoding, and malformed escapes.
Writeback resolver integration
packages/slack/src/writeback.ts
extractSlackChannel uses the shared resolver and retains best-effort # prefixing for bare slugs.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6e782

This PR centralizes Slack channel-segment parsing and exposes it publicly, reducing parser drift. It is mergeable with owner awareness that a compose/parse round-trip test should be added to guard future channel-matching regressions; the downstream rollout remains follow-up work rather than a merge-blocking defect.

Poem

A rabbit finds an ID in the path,
Through current and legacy trails.
Escaped signs cause no collapse,
Shared code keeps parsing rails.
Writeback hops along with care.

Explanation

The implementation satisfies issue #276 by exporting the inverse parser, supporting bare, v2, and legacy formats, parsing by channel ID, returning null when recovery fails, and reusing the parser in extractSlackChannel.

P1 Badge Exercise the exported inverse with the actual path composer

Replace or supplement the hand-written v2 segment with a compose-then-parse assertion such as passing slackNameWithId(name, id) into this helper. As written, the test can remain green if the canonical composer changes its separator or normalization while the advertised inverse silently drifts, and the repository explicitly requires round-trip tests for every path-mapper helper.

P1 Badge Record the new public Slack helper in Unreleased

Add an impact-first [Unreleased] entry for this newly exported Slack path-mapper helper. Without it, the workspace's sole release narrative omits a user-visible API addition that downstream watch matchers are expected to adopt.

Add a v2 compose/parse round-trip test.

Line 8 uses a fixed segment. It does not verify that slackNameWithId output remains accepted by slackChannelIdFromPathSegment. If the composer changes, these literals can pass while emitted paths no longer resolve. Add an assertion that composes with slackNameWithId and recovers the same ID.

As per coding guidelines, “Each path-mapper helper requires round-trip compose/parse equality tests.”
