Description
Hello,
Is it possible to configure a custom MySlack app (not Claude app) to connect from ClaudeCode to Slack MCP?
I was trying configuring my own app and then using that app's clientId in the MCP configuration like below:
{
"mcpServers": {
"slack": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.slack.com/mcp",
"oauth": {
"clientId": "myClientId",
"callbackPort": 3118
}
}
}
}
The error I get back says "redirect_uri did not match any configured URIs. Passed URI: http://localhost:3118/callback".
But when I try registering http://localhost:3118/callback in my app's configuration, I'm not able to do it because of Please use a complete URL beginning with https (for security) error which blocks registering http redirects.
Can someone explain if it's even possible and how to do it correctly?
