[Chat SDK](https://chat-sdk.dev/) now supports scheduled messages on Slack, allowing you to deliver a message at a future time.

Use `thread.schedule()` and pass your message and a `postAt` date, like:

```typescript
const scheduled = await thread.schedule("Reminder: standup in 5 minutes!", {
    postAt: new Date("2026-03-09T08:55:00Z"),
});

// Cancel before delivery
await scheduled.cancel();
```

Read the [documentation](https://chat-sdk.dev/docs/api/thread#schedule) to get started, and learn more about the [Slack adapter](https://chat-sdk.dev/adapters/official/slack).
