Bug Description Feature request: rendering messages intended for copy-paste into MS Teams / Slack / Discord.

When I ask for "a Teams message" or "a Slack message", the response is typically formatted using markdown that the chat platform doesn't honor on paste:

  • Blockquotes (>) come through as literal > characters
  • Inline backticks (code) render as literal backticks
  • Bold/italic markers (**, *) often paste as literal asterisks

Two suggestions:

  1. Detect "Teams message" / "Slack message" / "Discord message" in the prompt and automatically format the body as plain text inside a fenced code block, with no inline markdown.
  2. Or expose a built-in skill (e.g. /teams-message, /chat-message) that does the same.

Today I have to add this to my global CLAUDE.md to get reliable behavior — would be great as a default.

Environment Info

TL;DR

The issue can be addressed by automatically formatting the response as plain text inside a fenced code block when detecting specific chat platform keywords in the prompt.

Guidance

  • Detecting "Teams message", "Slack message", or "Discord message" in the prompt could trigger a formatting change to plain text within a fenced code block.
  • Exposing a built-in skill, such as /teams-message or /chat-message, could provide an alternative solution.
  • The current workaround involves adding custom configuration to CLAUDE.md, which could be replaced by a default behavior.
  • Verifying the fix would involve testing the response formatting with different chat platform keywords and ensuring that the output is correctly formatted as plain text within a fenced code block.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not contain sufficient technical details to generate a specific example.

Notes

The solution may require modifications to the existing formatting logic and prompt detection mechanisms. The exact implementation details are not provided in the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: The current workaround of adding custom configuration to CLAUDE.md can be used until a default behavior is implemented, as it provides a reliable solution for the user's specific use case.
