We’re excited to introduce a suite of new features in Connery designed to make collaborating and accessing knowledge within Slack easier and more intuitive than ever. Connery now has enhanced general knowledge capabilities, session memory, and a seamless way to manage multiple conversations across channels, threads, and direct messages. These updates empower you and your team to make the most of Connery directly within Slack.
Plus, Connery can now run actions automatically or guide you through confirmations, even handling complex, multi-step requests with ease.
Connery now has access to general knowledge, so you can use it like ChatGPT without leaving Slack - even while collaborating with teammates in channels.
Connery now has a short-term session memory in the context of a single chat (for direct messages) and a single thread (for channels).
Now, you can have multiple chats with Connery in direct messages, each with its own session memory. This allows you to easily separate the chats by topic and switch contexts like in ChatGPT.
The "History" tab contains all your chats with Connery. Click the "+ New Chat" button to create a new chat.
If you ask Connery something in a channel, it will reply in a thread under your message.
This change brings multiple advantages:
Channel doesn't get overwhelmed with Connery replies if multiple people ask it something.
Connery retains a session memory for each thread, making it easier to discuss multiple topics simultaneously in the same channel.
In channels and threads, Connery can only see the messages where it is mentioned. So you can control what you want to share with Connery.
If the action does not require manual confirmation, Connery runs the action immediately and returns the result.
Otherwise, Connery will fill out the form and ask you to review it and confirm the run.
Also, Connery can run multiple actions in a chain to handle complex requests.
Now, you can access Connery with just one click and chat with it privately in a sidebar.
