Slack Reflex Interrupt Recovery

Slack reflex interrupt recovery is a mini-reset—close chat, exhale, restate next step—after catching an unplanned app open before a thread spiral steals the sprint.

Slack reflex interrupt recovery is the mini-reset after you catch yourself opening chat without intent—close the tab, one slow exhale, rewrite the next deep-work step, restart timer—so micro-interrupts do not become twenty-minute thread spirals. Reflex checks spike on tired afternoons; recovery is behavioral, not willpower shaming.

Keep chat closed by default; batch instead.

Common questions

  • Should I disable Slack entirely?

    Default-closed plus batch windows works for many roles—full disable is rare unless policy allows async-only days.
