What's Changed

Bring magic to a conversation with say_stream for streaming messages and show loading status with set_status. Now available for app.event and app.message listeners:

@app.event("app_mention")
def handle_mention(say_stream, set_status):
    set_status(
        status="Thinking...",
        loading_messages=["Waking up...", "Loading a witty response..."],
    )
    stream = say_stream(buffer_size=100)
    stream.append(markdown_text="Thinking... :thinking_face:\n\n")
    stream.append(markdown_text="Here is my response!")
    stream.stop()

AI-Enabled Features: Loading States, Text Streaming, and Feedback Buttons

🍿 Preview

📚 Changelog

• https://docs.slack.dev/changelog/2025/10/7/chat-streaming

⚡ Getting Started

Try the AI Agent Sample app to explore the AI-enabled features and existing Assistant helper:

# Create a new AI Agent app
$ slack create slack-ai-agent-app --template slack-samples/bolt-python-assistant-template
$ cd slack-ai-agent-app/

# Initialize Python Virtual Environment
$ python3 -m venv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

# Add your OPENAI_API_KEY
$ export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-proj-ahM...

# Run the local dev server
$ slack run

After the app starts, send a message to the "slack-ai-agent-app" bot for a unique response.

⌛ Loading States

Loading states allows you to not only set the status (e.g. "My app is typing...") but also sprinkle some personality by cycling through a collection of loading messages.

Bolt Assistant Class usage:

@assistant.user_message
def respond_in_assistant_thread(
    client: WebClient,
    context: BoltContext,
    get_thread_context: GetThreadContext,
    logger: Logger,
    payload: dict,
    say: Say,
    set_status: SetStatus,
):
    set_status(
        status="thinking...",
        loading_messages=[
            "Teaching the hamsters to type faster…",
            "Untangling the internet cables…",
            "Consulting the office goldfish…",
            "Polishing up the response just for you…",
            "Convincing the AI to stop overthinking…",
        ],
    )

Web Client SDK usage:

@app.message()
def handle_message(client, context, event, message):
    client.assistant_threads_setStatus(
        channel_id=channel_id,
        thread_ts=thread_ts,
        status="thinking...",
        loading_messages=[
            "Teaching the hamsters to type faster…",
            "Untangling the internet cables…",
            "Consulting the office goldfish…",
            "Polishing up the response just for you…",
            "Convincing the AI to stop overthinking…",
        ],
    )

    # Start a new message stream

• https://docs.slack.dev/reference/methods/assistant.threads.setStatus

🔮 Text Streaming Helper

The chat_stream() helper utility can be used to streamline calling the 3 text streaming methods:

# Start a new message stream
streamer = client.chat_stream(
    channel=channel_id,
    recipient_team_id=team_id,
    recipient_user_id=user_id,
    thread_ts=thread_ts,
)

# Loop over OpenAI response stream
# https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses/create
for event in returned_message:
    if event.type == "response.output_text.delta":
        streamer.append(markdown_text=f"{event.delta}")
    else:
        continue

feedback_block = create_feedback_block()
streamer.stop(blocks=feedback_block)

• https://docs.slack.dev/tools/python-slack-sdk/reference/web/chat_stream.html

🔠 Text Streaming Methods

Alternative to the Text Streaming Helper is to call the individual methods.

1) client.chat_startStream

First, start a chat text stream to stream a response to any message:

@app.message()
def handle_message(message, client, context, event, message):
    # Start a new message stream
    stream_response = client.chat_startStream(
        channel=channel_id,
        recipient_team_id=team_id,
        recipient_user_id=user_id,
        thread_ts=thread_ts,
    )
    stream_ts = stream_response["ts"]

• https://docs.slack.dev/reference/methods/chat.startStream

2) client.chat_appendStream

After starting a chat text stream, you can then append text to it in chunks (often from your favourite LLM SDK) to convey a streaming effect:

for event in returned_message:
    if event.type == "response.output_text.delta":
        client.chat_appendStream(
            channel=channel_id, 
            ts=stream_ts, 
            markdown_text=f"{event.delta}"
        )
    else:
        continue

• https://docs.slack.dev/reference/methods/chat.appendStream

3) client.chat_stopStream

Lastly, you can stop the chat text stream to finalize your message:

client.chat_stopStream(
    channel=channel_id, 
    ts=stream_ts,
    blocks=feedback_block
)

• https://docs.slack.dev/reference/methods/chat.stopStream

👍🏻 Feedback Buttons

Add feedback buttons to the bottom of a message, after stopping a text stream, to gather user feedback:

def create_feedback_block() -> List[Block]:
    blocks: List[Block] = [
        ContextActionsBlock(
            elements=[
                FeedbackButtonsElement(
                    action_id="feedback",
                    positive_button=FeedbackButtonObject(
                        text="Good Response",
                        accessibility_label="Submit positive feedback on this response",
                        value="good-feedback",
                    ),
                    negative_button=FeedbackButtonObject(
                        text="Bad Response",
                        accessibility_label="Submit negative feedback on this response",
                        value="bad-feedback",
                    ),
                )
            ]
        )
    ]
    return blocks

@app.message()
def handle_message(message, client):
    # ... previous streaming code ...
    
    # Stop the stream and add feedback buttons
    feedback_block = create_feedback_block()
    client.chat_stopStream(
        channel=channel_id, 
        ts=stream_ts, 
        blocks=feedback_block
    )

• https://docs.slack.dev/reference/block-kit/block-elements/icon-button-element/

Ⓜ️ Markdown Text Support

Relevant changes

We've fixed a regression around the logger, by default the logger used by the WebClient will be the same as the one used by the Bolt application. If the WebClient defines its own logger then it will be used:

my_logger = logging.getLogger("my_logger")
app = App(client=WebClient(token=os.environ.get("SLACK_BOT_TOKEN"), logger=my_logger))

@app.command("/sample-command")
def sample_command(ack: Ack, client: WebClient):
    ack()
    assert client.logger.name == my_logger.name
