Hey, this is a known issue with the Slack integration. The bot is currently handling authentication incorrectly and, instead of running tasks, it shows an account linking prompt. The buttons also don’t work properly.

The same bug is described here: Slack Integration Spamming intro message

The team is aware of the issue. There’s no timeline for a fix yet, but your report helps with prioritization.

Let me know if anything changes on your side.
