If you still need to install Skej in your Slack workspace, follow the installation guide here. If Skej is already installed, here’s how to start using it to schedule meetings and manage your calendar.
Add Skej to a channel
If you want Skej to help schedule across your Slack workspace, you need to add the Slack handle @Skej as a member in your Slack channels.
Add Skej to any channel where you want scheduling support — department, general, or private channels.
How to get Skej's attention
Skej can’t read every message in your Slack. To get its attention, you’ll need to mention @Skej directly.
If you tag Skej in a new message in a channel, Skej only sees that message (not earlier history).
If you tag Skej inside a thread, it will see the prior messages in that thread and can use them for context.”
Internal Meetings
If your coworkers are Skej users too, scheduling is instant. Skej checks everyone’s availability, buffers, and preferences to autobook a time.
Works in group DMs, public channels, or private channels.
Just tag the people you want in the meeting (
@Alex @Taylor) or use@channelif you want everyone.”
Skej will respond back once the task is complete.
Mutual Availability
Not ready to book yet? Ask Skej to show overlapping availability across people, time zones, and calendars.
