        What this template gives you

        • Interface

          A chat window, in your browser

          Use the included interface to send a request to this template.

        • Gateway

          route-channel-questions-readonly gateway

          This template sends its requests through route-channel-questions-readonly gateway, where its access rules and limits apply.

        • Model

          route-channel-questions-model

          This template uses route-channel-questions-model through the route-channel-questions-pool pool.

        Usage

        Hand this template to an AI agent to set up this template

        Node.js and npm to run npx.

        Dome CLI, installed with brew install dome-systems/tap/dome, then signed in with dome auth login.

        Docker Compose to run the companion app locally.

        1. 1

          Create a workspace

          dome workspaces create --name <workspace-name>

          The CLI creates and selects a workspace context for you.

        2. 2

          Confirm the workspace context

          dome context list

          The workspace you just created is already selected.

        3. 3

          Pull the template

          npx @domesystems/templates pull dome-systems/route-channel-questions@0.1.1 --dir route-channel-questions

          Downloads this immutable release and verifies its digest.

        4. 4

          Run the template

          npx @domesystems/templates up --dir route-channel-questions

          Imports it into Dome and starts the companion app.

        Dome import variables

        npx @domesystems/templates up imports the template into Dome and prompts for required values. For unattended runs, set them as DOME_IMPORT_VAR_… environment variables.

        Required values

        • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_slack_oauth_client_id
        • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_slack_oauth_client_secret
        • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_anthropic_api_key
        • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_google_oauth_client_id
        • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_google_oauth_client_secret

        Setup guide

        Follow this template's setup guidance for agent variables and upstream connections.

        # Set up Route Channel Questions
        
        This is a read-only composite, but it needs a model credential and every listed data source configured before it can run. Set up isolated test accounts or workspaces first, grant only the smallest read scope that exposes the test data, and store every credential only in Dome's secret inputs. Never put a key or secret in this repository, an agent prompt, or a chat message.
        
        ## Create the model credential
        
        - Create an API key in the [Anthropic Console](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys).
        - Enter the raw key as `anthropic_api_key` during import. Do not prepend `Bearer `.
        - The template uses that key only for its managed `claude-sonnet-5` model connection.
        
        ## Create the provider credentials
        
        - `slack_oauth_client_id`: A Slack app client ID.
        - `slack_oauth_client_secret`: The Slack app client secret.
        - `google_oauth_client_id`: A Google OAuth client ID for an AI-powered agent.
        - `google_oauth_client_secret`: The Google OAuth client secret.
        
        For a provider that asks you to register a manual OAuth app, use this callback URL exactly:
        
        `https://api.domesystems.ai/oauth/callback`
        
        ## Set up each connected provider
        
        ### Slack
        
        Before import, create a Slack app at [api.slack.com/apps](https://api.slack.com/apps). Choose **From scratch**, make it internal to the intended workspace, then copy the client ID and client secret from **Basic Information**. In **OAuth & Permissions**, add `https://api.domesystems.ai/oauth/callback` as a redirect URL. In **Agents**, enable **Slack Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server**. Add only the read/search/history/channel/user scopes requested by this template; do not add any write scope. Install or reinstall the app to the dedicated test workspace after changing scopes.
        
        - `slack_oauth_client_id` and `slack_oauth_client_secret`: enter values from an approved internal Slack app.
        
        In the Slack app's **Agents** section, enable the **Slack Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server** feature. Register Dome's redirect URI and grant only the template's search, history, channel, user, canvas-read, and list-read scopes. Do not add `chat:write`, file-write, canvas-write, or other write scopes.
        
        ### Notion
        
        This provider uses Dynamic Client Registration (DCR). Do **not** create or paste an OAuth client ID or client secret: after import, Dome registers the client and opens the provider's consent page.
        
        Importing the template creates the Notion connection and
        attaches it to the gateway without waiting for a tool catalog. In the
        connection step, sign in to Notion with an account that can access the
        workspace or pages the agent should search, then approve the requested
        connection. After authorization, refresh the Notion connection's tools so the
        gateway can use the discovered catalog. Dome uses the API key only to create
        the shared model connection; Sandbox does not retain the value.
        
        ### Google Drive
        
        Before import, open [Google Cloud OAuth clients](https://console.cloud.google.com/auth/clients/create) and create a **Web application** OAuth client. Enable **Use this client for an AI-powered agent**, add `https://api.domesystems.ai/oauth/callback` as an authorized redirect URI, and copy the client ID and secret. In **APIs & Services → Library**, enable both **Google Drive API** and **Google Drive MCP API** for that same project. Configure the consent screen as **Internal**, or add the test user if it is **External**.
        
        - `google_oauth_client_id` and `google_oauth_client_secret`: enter values from a Google Cloud Web OAuth client configured as an AI-powered agent.
        
        Enable the Drive and Drive MCP APIs, register the redirect URI shown by Dome, and request only `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly`.
        
        ## Import and verify
        
        1. Import the template and provide the values above.
        2. Complete every browser OAuth flow with the intended dedicated test user. Token-based sources do not open a browser.
        3. Open **Tools**, refresh discovery, and confirm every connection is attached to the template gateway.
        4. Run the managed agent against known test data. Treat the template as verified only when the run succeeds **and calls at least one expected read-only tool**.
        
        If a connection is unreachable, check the provider section above for its callback, API/MCP enablement, token prefix, consent scopes, and user/workspace access before retrying.

        Runtime environment

        These variables are required to run the agent. During pull, .env.example is copied to .env when available. If they’re missing, npx @domesystems/templates up retrieves them from Dome and saves them in .env. Pass --provision to refresh them.

        Agent instructions

        You are Route Channel Questions, a read-only assistant. Recommend an owner and draft response for unanswered Slack questions.
        
        Use connected tools only to retrieve information. Do not invoke tools that create, update, delete, send, approve, or change upstream state, even if a provider exposes them. Produce a clear answer with source-specific evidence, confidence, assumptions, and recommended human next steps. When an action is needed, draft or recommend it for a person to perform; do not perform it.
