 Auth behavior:
 
-- Uses Slack OAuth v2 with a localhost callback.
-- Opens the Slack OAuth URL in the default browser by default. Use `--no-open` to print the URL only, or `--auth-url-out PATH` for headless agents and tests.
-- Bot scopes go in `scope=...`; user scopes go in `user_scope=...`.
+- Primary setup: `agent-slack auth login` uses the bundled Agent Slack public Client ID, opens Slack in the browser with PKCE, and stores a local user-token profile.
+- Users can also provide an existing Bot User OAuth Token with `--token`.
+- A normal user should not create a Slack app or provide client credentials.
+- Developer fallback: OAuth mode can use BYO Slack app credentials. The **Client ID** and **Client Secret** come from the Slack app's **Basic Information -> App Credentials** section.
+- OAuth opens the Slack OAuth URL in the default browser by default. Use `--no-open` to print the URL only, or `--auth-url-out PATH` for headless agents and tests.
+- PKCE uses `user_scope=...`; BYO OAuth bot scopes go in `scope=...`.
+- Default local callback: `http://localhost:45454/oauth/slack/callback`.
 - Stores profiles outside the project directory. The default store is `~/.config/agent-slack/profiles.json`; set `AGENT_SLACK_TOKEN_STORE=keychain` on macOS to keep token secrets in Keychain and only profile metadata on disk.
 - Supports multiple profiles and workspaces.
 - `auth status --json` returns token type, team, enterprise, user/bot identity, granted scopes, and missing recommended scopes.

+## 0.1.4
+
+### Patch Changes

+- Add Slack PKCE browser login.
+
+  No-flag `auth login` now uses the bundled Agent Slack public Client ID with Slack OAuth PKCE for browser-based user-token login without a client secret. Token setup and BYO OAuth remain available for bot-token, development, and self-hosted workflows.

-OAuth login opens Slack in your browser. Use `--no-open` to print the URL.
+## Auth
+
+Browser login:
+
+```bash
+agent-slack auth login
+```
+
+Agent Slack opens Slack in the browser with PKCE and stores a local user-token profile. Users do not create Slack apps or handle Slack client secrets.
+
+Token setup:
+
+```bash
+agent-slack auth login --token "$SLACK_BOT_TOKEN" --scopes channels:read,channels:history,users:read
+```
+
+Developer/self-hosted fallback:
+
+1. Create a Slack app at <https://api.slack.com/apps>.
+2. Add the needed scopes under **OAuth & Permissions**.
+3. Install it to your workspace and copy the **Bot User OAuth Token**.
+4. Run `agent-slack auth login --token "$SLACK_BOT_TOKEN" --scopes ...`.
+
+OAuth with `--client-id` and `--client-secret` is only for bring-your-own-app development and self-hosted setups.

+
+Agent Slack opens Slack in the browser with PKCE and stores a local user-token profile. Users should not create a Slack app or handle `client-id`/`client-secret`.
+
+Token setup:
+
+```bash
+agent-slack auth login --token "$SLACK_BOT_TOKEN" --scopes channels:read,channels:history,users:read --json
+```
+
+This stores an existing Slack Bot User OAuth Token as a local profile.
+
+Developer/self-hosted fallback:
+
+1. Create or open a Slack app at https://api.slack.com/apps.
+2. Go to **OAuth & Permissions**, add the needed bot scopes, install the app to the workspace, and copy the **Bot User OAuth Token**.
+3. For OAuth auth, get the **Client ID** and **Client Secret** from **Basic Information -> App Credentials** in that Slack app, then run:
+
+```bash
+agent-slack auth login --oauth --client-id "$SLACK_CLIENT_ID" --client-secret "$SLACK_CLIENT_SECRET" --json
+```
+
+Treat Slack app creation and client credentials as an advanced developer fallback only.
