Poem

🐰 A rabbit hops through docs so fine,
Slack v2's guide now does shine,
Setup, examples, troubleshoots galore,
Knowledge shared, we'll need no more! ✨

Pre-merge checks and finishing touches

❌ Failed checks (2 warnings)

Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Description Check	⚠️ Warning	The pull request description is largely incomplete and does not meet the template requirements. While the author included the required "## WHY" section header, they left it unfilled with only the comment "" remaining. The description provides only a reference URL to the source file but offers no actual explanation of why this change is being made or what problem it solves. This fails to satisfy the template structure which calls for a completed WHY section explaining the motivation behind the change.
Docstring Coverage	⚠️ Warning	Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%.	You can run @coderabbitai generate docstrings to improve docstring coverage.

✅ Passed checks (1 passed)

Check name	Status	Explanation
Title Check	✅ Passed	The pull request title "Add README for Slack v2 app with usage instructions and examples" clearly and specifically describes the main change in the changeset. The title is concise, avoids vague terminology, and directly corresponds to the raw summary which confirms a comprehensive Slack v2 README was added with documentation covering overview, setup steps, workflow usage, example use cases, and troubleshooting. The title is neither overly broad nor misleading.

components/slack_v2/README.md (4)

1-82: Documentation is well-structured, but the "## WHY" section mentioned in PR objectives is missing.

The PR description notes that a "## WHY" section was left for the author to complete, but I don't see it in the provided file. Please clarify whether this section should be added before merging, or if the PR objectives note refers to future work.

---

39-45: Use case examples are practical and well-chosen.

The three examples (Automated Standup Reports, Customer Support Ticketing, Real-time CRM Updates) effectively illustrate the Slack app's integration capabilities and provide clear value propositions for different workflows.

---

47-82: Troubleshooting section with API response examples is clear and helpful.

The error response documentation is well-structured with concrete JSON examples showing success, failure, and warning scenarios. This will help users debug integration issues effectively.

---

18-28: All links and UI references verified as current and accurate.

The README's external URLs (https://pipedream.com/accounts, https://pipedream.com/apps/slack-bot) both return HTTP 200. The "Send Message" action exists in the codebase with that exact name. Internal documentation links (/workflows/, /code/, /connected-accounts/#connecting-accounts) follow the standard relative-path pattern used consistently throughout the repository. The UI button text "Click Here To Connect An App" is current per Pipedream's documentation. The #workflow-actions anchor is properly referenced in the README.
