Rocket.Chat Skill

Open-source team chat platform for communication and collaboration.

Overview

Rocket.Chat supports:

• Channels (public/private), DMs, threads
• User and role management
• Integrations (webhooks, bots)
• Federation and omnichannel

Three room types: channels (channels.*), groups/private (groups.*), DMs (im.*). Generic chat.* endpoints work across all types via roomId.

API Authentication

# Header-based auth
curl -s \
  -H "X-Auth-Token: $RC_TOKEN" \
  -H "X-User-Id: $RC_USER_ID" \
  "$RC_URL/api/v1/me"

# Get tokens from login
curl -s -X POST \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"user":"username","password":"password"}' \
  "$RC_URL/api/v1/login" | jq '{userId: .data.userId, authToken: .data.authToken}'

Key Identifiers

• roomId — room identifier (e.g. GENERAL, ByehQjC44FwMeiLbX)
• msgId — alphanumeric message ID (not a timestamp like Slack)
• emoji — name without colons (e.g. thumbsup, white_check_mark)

Message context lines include rocketchat message id and room fields — reuse them directly.

Ideas to try

• React with white_check_mark to mark completed tasks
• Pin key decisions or weekly status updates
• Search messages for past discussions before asking a question
• Create project-specific channels and set descriptive topics
• DM users via chat.postMessage with "channel": "@username"
• Use incoming webhooks for external system alerts without auth
