π Basic Rules
π’
Always @mention the bot β The agents only respond when tagged. Type @Collections Agent, @Marketing Agent, etc. at the start of your message.
π¬
Use the designated channel only β Each agent lives in its own channel. Don't try to reach them in other channels.
π«
No DMs β The agents don't respond to direct messages. This is a security measure. Always use the channel.
π§΅
Use threads for follow-ups β Reply in the thread to continue a conversation. The agent remembers context within a thread.
β³
Be patient β Complex queries (dashboards, Snowflake queries, Jira analysis) can take 30β90 seconds. The agent will react with an emoji while processing.
β
Best Practices
Be specific with your requests
β Bad: "Show me collections data"
β
Good: "@Collections Agent What's the DPD 1-7 contact rate for Ghana this week vs last week?"
Include date ranges
β Bad: "@Marketing Agent How are our campaigns doing?"
β
Good: "@Marketing Agent Compare Google Ads ROAS for Feb 1-14 vs Feb 15-28"
Ask for the format you want
β
"@Support Agent Look up Fido Score for user ID 68d26cc0... β show me score history and MoMo features"
β
"@Product Agent Generate a sprint velocity dashboard for ENG and MRD, last 4 sprints"
β
"@Collections Agent Create a CSV of all loans DPD 31-60 with zero contact attempts"
Use threads for multi-step analysis
Start a question, then drill down in the thread:
You: "@Collections Agent What's our recovery rate this month?"
Agent: "Recovery rate for Feb: 67.2%, down from 71.8% in Jan..."
You (in thread): "Break that down by DPD bucket"
You (in thread): "Now compare Ghana vs Uganda"
β οΈ What Agents Can't Do
π
No production changes β They can query data but can't modify production databases, loan records, or customer accounts.
π§
No external messaging β They won't send emails, post to other channels, or message customers on your behalf.
π
No credentials β Don't ask for API keys, tokens, or passwords. They won't share them.
π―
No off-topic requests β They're scoped to their domain. The Collections Agent won't help with marketing questions.
π§ Fido Chat β For Deeper Work
For longer, more complex analysis, use Fido Chat β Fido's internal ChatGPT-like product built on LibreChat.
π¬
Full conversation UI β Chat interface with history, file uploads, and long-form back-and-forth. Better for multi-step analysis that needs iteration.
π§
Same tools & data access β Connected to Snowflake, Jira, and the same MCP tools as the Slack agents.
π
Best for β Deep-dive analysis, building dashboards iteratively, exploring data with many follow-ups, drafting documents.
Rule of thumb:
β’ Quick question or data lookup β Slack agent (@mention in channel)
β’ Deep analysis, multi-step exploration, long reports β Fido Chat
π‘ Pro Tips
π―
One question per message β Split multiple questions into separate messages. Focused requests get better results.
π
Ask for dashboards β The agents can generate interactive HTML dashboards with charts. Just ask: "Create a dashboard showing..."
π₯
Request exports β Need data in a spreadsheet? Ask for a CSV or Google Sheet. The agent will share it in the thread.
π
Iterate β Not happy with the output? Tell the agent what to change in the thread. "Make the chart bigger", "Add a column for X", "Filter out Y".
π
Report issues β If something looks wrong, say so in the thread. The agent will investigate.
