Ask it in a channel. It replies in the thread.

Mention Spinrun in a Slack channel, message it on WhatsApp, email its own address or open the workspace chat. It reads the request, works through the apps you connected and answers where you asked.

Anyone else in the channel can read along, and answering under its reply keeps the same job going without tagging it again.
