Build and deploy a Slack Agent to Vercel - Ship 26 NYC Workshop

Everybody's building agents. Where are they all going to live? Recorded live at Vercel Ship 2026 in New York City, Josh from Slack's platform product team runs an interactive workshop taking the room from absolutely nothing to a working agent in Slack, deployed to Vercel, in about 15 minutes. Slack's pitch: not a walled garden and not another agent framework, but the connective tissue between every agent platform, right where conversations, context, and decisions already happen.
