v1.2.4 — No-Surprise Diagnostics for Slack MCP Operators
This release removes diagnostic side effects and makes setup/auth triage deterministic across CLI, MCP tool output, and web mode.
Improved
--statusis now read-only and deterministic; it no longer triggers Chrome extraction side effects.--doctorexit-code behavior is enforced and covered for missing credentials (1) and invalid credentials (2) in install-flow verification.- Token-age handling now treats missing timestamps as unknown age instead of false critical warnings.
- Chrome extraction failures now surface explicit Apple Events remediation guidance.
- Health and status payloads are normalized across handlers/endpoints (
status,code,message,next_action).
Compatibility
- No MCP tool renames or removals.
- Existing CLI commands remain intact (
--setup,--status,--doctor,web,http).
