## Slack Announcement Composer Write a Slack message for me. - What I'm announcing: [textarea: The news, change, or request - all the details you have] - Audience: [dropdown: My immediate team, The whole engineering org, Company-wide, A cross-functional channel] - Tone: [dropdown: Straightforward, Warm and upbeat, Serious / heads-down, Apologetic] - What I need people to do: [text: e.g. read the doc, react to acknowledge, nothing - just FYI] - Urgency: [dropdown: Read whenever, Read today, Action needed now] - Add a short TL;DR line at the top [toggle: Yes, No] Keep it under 150 words, front-load the point in the first sentence, use bold sparingly for the one thing that matters most, and end with an explicit ask. Then give me a one-line thread reply I can post with the extra detail, so the main message stays short.
