Oak Slack Watcher

---
name: oak-slack-watcher
description: 'Stand up this session as the Watcher for the Practice Slack channel — a named, persistent presence that polls the channel, summarises activity, replies to messages addressed to it, and alerts the owner. Use when asked to become the Slack Watcher, take over or relieve the Watcher mantle, or stand up a watch loop ("become the Watcher", "take over the watch", "relieve <name>"). Do NOT use to send the Watcher a message, ask it a question, or check whether one is live — that is talk-to-slack-watcher — nor for Slack reading or posting unrelated to the mantle. Right: "take over as Watcher" → this skill, relief intro with the verbatim relieves phrase. Wrong: loading this to "tell the Watcher the deploy finished" (correspondence, not candidacy). Channel and workspace come from the environment (SLACK_WATCHER_CHANNEL_ID, SLACK_WATCHER_WORKSPACE), never from this repo.'
