Description
Description
Messages from Slack apps and bots often use Block Kit for rich layouts (sections, buttons, dividers, context blocks, etc.). These are currently not rendered and may show as empty or raw text.
Proposed Solution
Implement a best-effort TUI renderer for common Block Kit elements:
section— text with optional accessorydivider— horizontal rulecontext— small text/imagesheader— bold header textrich_text— formatted text blocksactions— display button labels (non-interactive in TUI)image— show alt text or URL
Interactive elements (buttons, menus) can display labels as non-clickable text since TUI cannot handle Slack interactivity.
Impact
Many workspaces rely heavily on bot messages (CI/CD, alerts, workflows). Without Block Kit rendering, these messages are unreadable.
