### Slack Stranger Bot
Meet strangers in your Slack Workspace, explore new people. Fully anonymous and secure, bot doesn't store any data.
### How it works?
- User opens a conversation with Stranger Bot.
- Types `hi`.
- Stranger Bot finds random active user who doesn't participate currently in another Stranger conversation.
- Bot will act as a proxy between two connected users. Never mentioning who sends a message.
- Any user can type `bye` to finish the conversation, and type `hi` again to start a new random one.
### Anonymous messages to the channel
You can send private message to the Stranger Bot started with channel name to send message to the channel.
- Add Stranger Bot to the channel.
- Send `#channel-name message` to the Bot in private conversation.
### Run Stranger Bot

2. Add `chat:write` OAuth scope
3. Toggle `Allow users to send Slash commands and messages from the messages tab`
