THE CHANNELGATE HANDBOOK

Everything your team needs to work with agents in chat.

ChannelGate brings coding agents into Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Chat. Your deployment runs on your Linux infrastructure, with a separate workspace, container, and persistent memory for each conversation. Each thread keeps its own agent session.

Start with a walkthrough, explore a feature, or find the setting you need. Microsoft Teams and Google Chat are currently in Beta.
