Oliver Bonas Integration Agent in Slack
Broken integrations surface where the team already works, and are fixed without opening the platform.
An agent in Slack notices a failed integration flow, explains why, and fixes it without anyone opening the platform.
What the agent does
Notices a failed integration flow, explains the cause on request, diagnoses the data issue and applies the fix in the chat channel itself.

01
The problem
Why this exists
Integration failures are discovered late because nobody watches an integration platform. A flow drops a record, the platform logs it, and the business finds out when an order does not arrive.

Even once it is noticed, the diagnosis lives in a tool that most of the people affected do not have open, do not have access to, or do not know how to read. The time between failure and fix is mostly the time it takes to get the right person into the right screen.

Outcomes
What changes when this is in place
- The agent proactively notifies the team of failed flow data, so the failure surfaces where the team already works rather than in a log nobody is reading.
- Asked what happened, it explains, and it diagnoses the underlying data issue rather than only reporting the error.
- The fix is applied from Slack directly. Nobody has to open Patchworks or the connected systems.

How it works
Architecture
The agent connects to Patchworks over the Patchworks MCP server and lives in the customer's Slack workspace as @PatchworksAI.

MCP is what makes the pattern work in both directions. The agent reads flow state and error detail through the server, and it acts through the same interface, which is why remediation can happen in the conversation rather than in the platform.
The proactive notification is the part that changes the operating model. The agent is not waiting to be asked; it raises the failure, and the diagnosis and the fix follow in the same thread.
