Factory announced that Factory for Slack Code is in beta for select users. A team brings a software task into a Slack channel, collaborates on it there, and Factory works on the task, returning the result to the conversation where it started. Slack describes Slack Code as a dedicated channel where teams and AI agents build and ship code together.
For engineering teams, this moves task intake and agent output into the same thread as the discussion, reducing context transfer between tools. The announcement does not describe permissions, repository access controls, or what form the returned result takes.
