+# Methods
+
+Individual Slack Web API method calls with the `slack_sdk` `WebClient`.
+
+Read the [docs](https://docs.slack.dev/reference/methods) to explore every method, or explore implementations of specific families.
+
+## What's on display
+
+### chat
+
+- **[chat.postMessage](https://docs.slack.dev/reference/methods/chat.postmessage)**: Sends a message to a channel. [Implementation](./src/chat/chat_post_message.py).
+
+## Running an example
+
+Each family ships a [`manifest.json`](./src/chat/manifest.json) requesting only the scopes it needs (`chat` → `chat:write`). Create an app from it, then set a bot token and run an example module directly:
+
+```sh
+export SLACK_TOKEN="xoxb-your-token"
+python -m src.chat.chat_post_message
+```
