The bot is easy to deploy: It is just a Python process with few external dependencies - no databases needed. Its security footprint is small as it uses only a tightly scoped set of Slack calls. During development you can run the bot on any workstation, so it is quick to iterate on custom actions and extend it to suit your needs. For production deployments the bot ships with a CloudFormation template for automating your deployments to AWS.

Communicating with the bot

There are two ways interact with the Metaflow bot. You can invite the bot on a channel or directly speak to it via direct message.
