Slack & Teams

Receive updates where your team works

Connect Coderbuds to your Slack workspace or Microsoft Teams channels to receive weekly summaries and stay informed about your team's performance without switching tools.

How It Works

Coderbuds offers two integration methods: Slack App (recommended for code review notifications with @mentions) or webhooks (for weekly summaries). Connect via OAuth or create a webhook URL in your team settings.

Slack App (Recommended)

Connect Coderbuds to your Slack workspace for code review notifications with @mentions.

    Choose which Slack channel to receive notifications in (e.g., #code-reviews)

  3. 3

    Invite the Bot to the Channel

    In your Slack channel, type /invite @Coderbuds to add the bot

    Important: The bot must be invited to the channel to post messages.

  4. 4

    Configure Triggers

    Choose when to notify: on /review comment, when PR is created, or both

Slack Webhook (Alternative)

Use webhooks for weekly summaries if you don't need code review notifications with @mentions.

Slack AI Coach

The Coderbuds Slack bot is more than notifications — it's an AI-powered engineering coach you can chat with directly in Slack. Ask it about team metrics, DORA performance, code quality, burnout risk, work item progress, and more.

> "How's the team doing overall?"
> "Show me our DORA metrics"
> "Is anyone at risk of burnout?"
