What an agent can automate between Google Sheets and Slack
A metrics digest agent that pulls funnel numbers into a Sheet every morning, computes week-over-week deltas, and posts a summary to Slack.
On the Slack side, the same agent can also post formatted messages and alerts to specific channels and react to @mentions and slash commands as triggers, so the two tools stay in sync without a person copying data between them by hand.
