Hand off a problem
1
Open the problem
Open an alert, an investigation, an ops board card, or a blocker in the Control Tower. The Fix
with Claude button also appears on the matching Slack messages.
2
Click Fix with Claude
In the app, a Fix with Claude window opens with a Command box. In Slack, you get a
private reply with the same command, and a line appears in the thread.
3
Copy the command
Click Copy, then run it in a terminal on the machine that holds the credentials for the
affected system.
4
Let the session work
Your Claude Code session fetches the brief, runs the read-only checks first, and proposes any
step that changes something before running it. Leave the window open: its status updates when
the session picks the brief up and again when it reports.
The command
The command depends on your plan.
The first time your organization uses the button, the window adds a First time? note explaining the MCP connection. The handoff expires 24 hours after you click.
The four outcomes
When the session finishes, it reports exactly one of these. The badge next to the button shows the result.
Before the report, the badge reads Handoff issued and then Local session working. The report includes a summary, the actions taken and the evidence gathered. Slack threads show each step, so the rest of the channel sees the loop close.
Who can use it
Members and above see the button. Viewers see the status badge but not the button. On the Free plan the button is shown locked and links to the Subscription page.The text the session reports back is checked and cleaned when it arrives, because it comes from a
machine SRE Agent does not control.
