Adds a recipe for reliable Slack scanning during the morning routine, addressing two common failure modes with Slack MCP connectors: 1. Stale data in channel scans — solved by timestamp-gating slack_read_channel calls to the previous session's Dashboard date (with a 4-hour overlap buffer, defaulting to 96h for long weekends). 2. Missed DMs — solved by a two-pronged approach: to:me search as a broad net plus direct DM channel reads for frequent contacts. Also includes guidance on subagent delegation, dedup against Dashboard, thread context handling, and known connector quirks. Files changed: - New: docs/src/recipes/slack.md (recipe with embedded vault file) - Modified: docs/src/SUMMARY.md (added to table of contents) - Modified: docs/src/recipes/index.md (added to recipes table) - Modified: template/Start-of-Day-Routine.md (short Slack pointer in Scan messaging step)
slack_read_channel with oldest only returns top-level messages, missing thread replies on older parent messages even when they contain new @mentions. Document the gap and the fix (to:me mention search pass) in the vault file template, How It Works, Known Quirks, and Tips and Gotchas sections.
