The example pinned @ai-sdk/mcp to 1.0.21 (protocolVersion incompat, see
88a2d82) via its own pnpm.overrides. That only took effect when the example
was installed in isolation; as a workspace member pnpm ignores package-level
overrides, so the pin was silently dropped — packages/runtime's `^1.0.21`
could drift to a newer, incompatible 1.x on the next lockfile regen.
Move the override to the root package.json's pnpm.overrides (runtime is the
only consumer, so this enforces exactly 1.0.21 with no wider impact) and
remove the now-dead override from the example (also silences the pnpm warning
that surfaced once the example became a workspace member).
`examples/slack/pnpm-lock.yaml` only existed for the old isolated deploy
(root dir `/examples/slack`, `pnpm install --ignore-workspace
--frozen-lockfile` resolving the @copilotkit/* deps from npm). Now that the
example is a workspace member built from source (`workspace:*`, root-dir
`/`), pnpm uses the single root `pnpm-lock.yaml`; the per-example lock is
never consulted and was left stale — it still pins the published `~0.0.2`
versions, which contradicts the `workspace:*` package.json and would break
any `--frozen-lockfile` install.
The example declared its sibling @copilotkit/* packages as npm version
ranges, so the Railway service (which builds examples/slack in isolation)
resolved them from the registry — forcing a "publish first, then bump the
example" dance on every PR, with a broken deploy window in between.
Switch those deps to the workspace:* protocol (the example is private, so
it never affects publishing) so the example always builds from in-repo
source, and add a graph-aware `build` script that compiles the workspace
libs it imports (and their deps) via Nx. README documents the Railway
settings (root dir / build / start / watch paths) and the copy-out caveat.
Result: a packages/** change redeploys the example with the new code
immediately, and npm publishing becomes an independent manual step.
examples/slack ships a standalone pnpm-lock.yaml (used by Railway when building
with rootDirectory=/examples/slack). PR #5478 fixed the root workspace lockfile
but not this one, so it still pinned @copilotkit/bot* at ~0.0.1 while
package.json now requires ~0.0.2 — pnpm install --frozen-lockfile failed with
ERR_PNPM_OUTDATED_LOCKFILE on deploy.
Regenerate it with the repo's pinned pnpm (10.33.4) via
pnpm -C examples/slack install --ignore-workspace --lockfile-only: importer
specifiers are now ~0.0.2 resolving to the published 0.0.2, the @ai-sdk/mcp
override is preserved. Verified: CI=true frozen install reports "Lockfile is
up to date" (exit 0).
Document that the slack example consumes the published @copilotkit/bot*
packages and that deploys (e.g. Railway) must include the repo-root
pnpm-lock.yaml / package.json in their watch paths, so a dependency bump
triggers a rebuild and a frozen install doesn't fail on an out-of-date
lockfile. Touches examples/slack/** to trigger the Railway redeploy of the
current main (which now carries the deployable-lockfile fix).
@copilotkit/bot, @copilotkit/bot-slack, and @copilotkit/bot-ui are published at
0.0.2 (agent-native assistant pane + native streaming). Point the slack
example's dependency ranges at ~0.0.2 so a deployed/standalone install pulls
the new packages. Local monorepo installs already use the workspace copies via
root pnpm.overrides, so the lockfile is unchanged.
The YAML manifest was missing the app_home block the JSON variant has, so
apps created from it showed "Sending messages to this app has been turned
off". Add app_home with the Messages tab enabled (not read-only), matching
slack-app-manifest.json.
Update package READMEs + ARCHITECTURE for the assistant pane, native streaming,
and the new onThreadStarted / setSuggestedPrompts / setTitle surface. Reverse
the slack.mdx callout that told users to delete the assistant scopes (now
required), and enable the pane in the examples/slack manifest (assistant_view +
assistant:write + assistant_thread_* events) with a dev-ex onThreadStarted
greeting and the assistant config.
@copilotkit/runtime@1.59.5 declares @ai-sdk/mcp ^1.0.21; fresh installs
resolve 1.0.47, whose MCP client assigns transport.protocolVersion after
the server's initialize response — a getter-only property on
@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.29.0's StreamableHTTPClientTransport. Every
MCP-enabled run then fails with:
TypeError: Cannot set property protocolVersion of
#<StreamableHTTPClientTransport> which has only a getter
The workspace-tested resolution was 1.0.21 (no such assignment — verified
by source diff of the published tarballs). Pin it via pnpm.overrides until
@copilotkit/runtime supports the newer client line.

- dependencies: workspace:* -> published ranges (@copilotkit/bot* ~0.0.1,
@copilotkit/runtime ^1.59.5) — the example is a consumer of the released
packages, installable and deployable with zero monorepo context
- drop the private @copilotkit/typescript-config devDep; inline the base
compiler options into tsconfig.json (verified identical tsc result)
- commit a standalone examples/slack/pnpm-lock.yaml for isolated installs
(root workspace installs ignore it)
- slack-app-manifest.{yaml,json}: remove assistant:write scope +
assistant_thread_started event (Slack rejects them without an
assistant_view feature block; the bot doesn't implement that surface),
add the /triage slash command the bot registers
Verified: slack-example tests 38/38 against the published packages; direct
tsc --noEmit clean; standalone install + runtime/bot boot exercised in a
gitless clean-room snapshot.

100% JSX bot at feature parity with the PoC example: issue/page cards,
tables, Chart.js charts, Mermaid diagrams, incident/status/links cards,
a confirm_write HITL gate, and /agent + /triage slash commands.
Registers examples/slack in the pnpm workspace.
