  title: Slack Post a Message and Reply in Thread
  summary: Post a parent message and then post a threaded reply under it.
  description: >-
    A threaded conversation pattern that posts a parent message and immediately
    starts a thread under it. The workflow posts the parent message to a
    channel, captures its timestamp, and then posts a reply using that
    timestamp as the thread anchor. Every step spells out its request inline so
    the flow can be read and executed without opening the underlying OpenAPI
    description.
