1515| What | What it contains |
1616| :-------------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
1717| Session transcripts | The record of one thread's, channel's, or direct message's work. A transcript holds the messages Claude was shown in the conversation and who sent them, files attached there, earlier versions of messages that were later edited, what Claude retrieved while working (Slack search results, messages it read in channels it's in, and data from connected tools), and everything Claude said and did |
18| Memory | The notes Claude saves for each channel, the workspace-shared notes from public channels, and separate notes for each direct-message conversation. See [What Claude Tag remembers](/docs/claude-tag/users/memory) |

1919| Routines | The scheduled and run-once tasks set up in channels or in direct messages, with their instructions and run history |
2020| Scopes and their settings | Each workspace and channel [scope](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/glossary#scope), with its custom instructions, version setting, and Access bundle bindings |
2121| Access bundles | The connections and credentials an Owner provisions. Bundles belong to your organization, not to a workspace |

4242### Actions in Slack
4343
44| Action | Claude-side data | Does Claude keep responding? |
45| :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :---------------------------------------- |
46| A Slack admin uninstalls the Claude app from a workspace | Deleted, the same as [disconnecting the workspace](#actions-in-claude), plus the app's installation credential for that workspace. Access bundles, and routines members set up in direct messages, stay | No. The app is removed from the workspace |
47| On Enterprise Grid, a Grid admin removes an org-wide installation of the app, from the whole grid or from one of its workspaces | Nothing is deleted. To delete the data, an Owner disconnects the grid, or a workspace that has its own pairing, in your Claude admin settings | No |
48| A channel is deleted in Slack | Deleted: that channel's sessions and transcripts, including earlier sessions Claude had archived there, its channel memory, and its scope with the routines and artifacts that belong to it. Notes Claude saved to workspace memory from a public channel aren't tied to the channel and stay until you delete them or disconnect the workspace, as does anything created under the workspace scope rather than the channel's own | Not applicable |
49| A channel is archived in Slack | Nothing is deleted. Unarchiving the channel picks its memory, routines, and sessions back up | Not while the channel is archived |
50| A public channel is made private | Nothing is deleted. Claude archives the channel's earlier sessions, and new sessions save to the channel's own memory store. Notes Claude saved to workspace memory while the channel was public stay there, readable from the workspace's other channels; see [Workspace memory](/docs/claude-tag/users/memory#workspace-memory) | Yes |
51| Someone removes Claude from a channel with `/remove @Claude` | Nothing is deleted. The channel's memory, routines, and past sessions stay on record, and re-adding Claude picks them back up. The channel's routines keep firing while Claude is out of the channel but can't post there | No |
52| Someone edits a message Claude read | Claude receives the edit as a note, and the transcript keeps both the earlier and the edited text | Yes |
53| Someone deletes a reply, or deletes a thread's first message after others have replied | Nothing is removed from the transcript, and Claude isn't notified | Yes |
54| Someone deletes a thread's first message before anyone has replied | The session closes and is archived with its transcript, including the deleted message | No. The thread is gone |
55| Someone deletes a file they attached in a thread Claude worked in | The copy Claude took into the session stays with the session and its transcript | Yes |
56| A member's Slack account is deactivated | Nothing is deleted. Their account link, direct-message conversations and notes, and their messages in channel transcripts stay. Channel routines they created keep running, and routines they set up in direct messages keep running until they're removed from your Claude organization | Not to that member |
44| Action | Claude-side data | Does Claude keep responding? |

50| A public channel is made private | Nothing is deleted. Claude archives the channel's earlier sessions. The channel's notes stay with the channel, and workspace notes Claude saved from it while it was public stay shared; see [Channel and workspace memory](/docs/claude-tag/users/memory#channel-and-workspace-memory) | Yes |
