CopilotKit Ships Channels SDK to Drop AG-UI Agents Into Slack and Teams Threads
CopilotKit announced the Channels SDK on 2026-08-04, an open-source library that puts any AG-UI-compatible agent directly into Slack and Microsoft Teams with the same memory and context as the humans in the thread; the repo (created 2026-07-16, 294 stars) also lists Discord and Telegram with native interactive UI. The architecture keeps your agent in your own infrastructure connected over AG-UI, but every channel routes through a CopilotKit Intelligence key — the SDK is open, the transport layer is not. Same-week CopilotKit activity includes aimock (665 stars, mocks LLM APIs, MCP, A2A, AG-UI, and vector DBs on one port) and OpenTag (730 stars), both pushed 2026-08-04.
