Dailybot Report Channels
Requires
dailybot-cli >= 3.9.0(the skill-pack baseline). Thedailybot channels list
command is available at this floor. Ifdailybot --versionreports below
3.9.0, ask the developer to rundailybot upgrade. See
`../SKILL.md` § Required Dailybot CLI version.
Report channels are the Slack / Microsoft Teams / Discord / Google Chat
destinations where Dailybot posts form and check-in reports. This sub-skill lists
the channels available to you so their UUIDs can be attached to a form or check-in
with --report-channel during authoring.
Auth model — API key or login
Works under a login session (Bearer) or an org API key (DAILYBOT_API_KEY).
Visibility is role-scoped server-side; the CLI never client-filters.
When to Use
- The developer is authoring a form or check-in (see
`../forms/SKILL.md` § Authoring and
`../checkin/SKILL.md` § Authoring) and needs a channel
UUID for--report-channel. - The developer asks "which channels can Dailybot post to?".
Do not use this to send a message to a channel — that's dailybot-chat.
Step 1 — List channels
# Human-readable table
dailybot channels list
# Machine-readable (recommended for agents)
dailybot channels list --jsonJSON shape:
[
{"uuid": "abc123-def456", "name": "#engineering", "platform": "slack", "channel_id": "C0123ABCDEF"}
]Step 2 — Use a channel UUID in authoring
dailybot form create -n "Sprint Retro" --report-channel abc123-def456
dailybot checkin config <followup_uuid> --report-channel abc123-def456--report-channel is repeatable to attach multiple channels.
Non-Blocking Rule
If the CLI is unavailable or unauthenticated, surface the issue once and continue;
never block work on channel discovery. The HTTP fallback isGET /v1/report-channels/ (see `../shared/http-fallback.md`).
