Frequently asked questions

1

What does this project do?

It sets up a local MCP server that parses Slack export logs and registers custom resources (`search://` and `summary://`) so that Claude Desktop can search Slack data using natural language.

2

What data does it use?

The project expects a “Slack-dataset” folder containing Slack export JSON files. A sample dataset is available at https://github.com/preethac/Software-related-Slack-Chats-with-Disentangled-Conversations.

3

How does it integrate with Claude Desktop?

You add the MCP server configuration to Claude Desktop’s config file (`claude_desktop_config.json`), pointing to the local `mcp_server.py` script. Claude Desktop then makes MCP calls to fetch and return contextual results.

4

Is my data kept private?

Yes. The server runs entirely locally, and no data is uploaded to the cloud. The README emphasizes “all locally and privately” and “without uploading your data to the cloud.”

5

What are the runtime requirements?

Python 3, a virtual environment, and the `requirements.txt` packages. The server is started via a command in the Claude Desktop config (e.g., using `/bin/zsh` to activate the venv and run `mcp_server.py`).
