Experiments

Bolt for Python includes experimental features still under active development. These features may be fleeting, may not be perfectly polished, and should be thought of as available for use "at your own risk."

Experimental features are categorized as semver:patch until the experimental status is removed.

We love feedback from our community, so we encourage you to explore and interact with the GitHub repo. Contributions, bug reports, and any feedback are all helpful; let us nurture the Slack CLI together to help make building Slack apps more pleasant for everyone.

Available experiments

say_stream listener argument {#say-stream}

The say_stream: SayStream listener argument provides access to streaming chat for AI agents.

SayStream and AsyncSayStream are callable context utilities pre-configured with event context defaults: channel_id, thread_ts, team_id, and user_id.

Example

from slack_bolt import SayStream

@app.event("app_mention")
def handle_mention(say_stream: SayStream):
    stream = say_stream()
    stream.append(markdown_text="Hello!")
    stream.stop()

Limitations

say_stream() requires either thread_ts or event.ts in the event context. It works in DMs, threaded replies, and top-level messages with a ts field.
