Integrations

AWS

Connect AWS to ask OpenTag about your cloud resources and manage them within the permissions you grant. Guided setup helps you create an AWS role you control, without pasting access keys into OpenTag. Use the connection for requests and scheduled routines, with approvals for actions that change resources.

Improvements

Answer clarification questions in the conversation

When OpenTag needs a missing detail or a choice, it now asks in its reply so you can answer with a normal message. You no longer need a separate question or confirmation card to continue the conversation. Approvals for actions still use their dedicated controls.

Fixes

Set custom connection sharing for your current workspace

Team and Private sharing controls for custom MCP connections now apply to the workspace you are viewing. Changing sharing there preserves the connection's access in your other workspaces, making it easier to manage each workspace separately.

Fixes

Read documents throughout a task

Fixed cases where OpenTag opened a PDF or text file during a task but missed its contents. It can now use those contents as the work continues. Files attached to your original request also stay with that request when you add instructions while OpenTag is working.

Fixes

Receive long answers when Slack rejects the formatting

Fixed long answers going undelivered when Slack rejected their formatted layout. OpenTag now retries the same answer once as plain text, giving you the result even when its formatting exceeds Slack's limits.

Integrations

Monaco

Connect Monaco to ask OpenTag about contacts, accounts, opportunities, tasks, and meetings. Prepare for a customer conversation by bringing together their deals, meeting details, and outstanding follow-ups. Choose Team or Private sharing and use a read-only connection when you only need to look things up.

Improvements

Load routines faster and retry stalled lists

The routines page does less work to load your list, especially when your workspace has many routines. If loading stalls, the page now stops waiting after 20 seconds and offers Retry so you can try again without reloading the whole page.

Fixes

Receive scheduled reports in the thread you chose

Fixed scheduled reports requested "in this thread" arriving in a new direct message. When you explicitly ask for a report in the current Slack thread, OpenTag now keeps that destination for the scheduled delivery, including reports in channel threads and direct-message threads.

Fixes

Follow Slack sources to the right message

Fixed citations to Slack thread replies showing as unavailable or pointing to the thread's first message. Reply citations now open the specific message. Follow-up answers also avoid reusing citation numbers from an earlier answer, which could point to an unrelated source or appear broken.

Fixes

Read Slack history without a date range

Fixed requests about Slack channels and threads failing when no start date was specified. OpenTag can now read the available history for those requests, so you do not need to add a date range to work around the error.

Fixes

Keep working app connections in Connected

Fixed usable app connections appearing under Needs attention solely because their credentials could not be verified. They now stay in Connected, with verification details available in the account view. Connections that need repair or renewal still show the appropriate warning.

Fixes

Keep your answer when a new app connects

Fixed a new app connection replacing an answer in progress with a connection confirmation. Connecting an app while OpenTag is working now preserves the requested answer, including drafts and links it has already prepared.

Improvements

Catch rejected API keys during app setup

OpenTag now checks pasted credentials with supported apps before saving a connection. If the app rejects your API key, the setup form explains the problem so you can correct it immediately. When the app cannot verify the key, OpenTag distinguishes that from a rejected credential.

Fixes

Continue reading after an app rate limit

Fixed app rate limits interrupting reports that need several reads, such as gathering notes from multiple Granola meetings. OpenTag now waits for the cooldown and retries supported reads automatically for up to six minutes, giving the request a chance to finish without asking you to start again.

Improvements

Manage Circleback follow-ups from OpenTag

With Circleback write access enabled, ask OpenTag to create or update action items, edit meeting notes, manage tags, and share meetings. Older connections may need reconnecting to grant write access. Circleback monitoring routines can also skip eligible checks when nothing has changed, while time-based reminders and digests continue on their saved schedules.

Fixes

More reliable Gmail attachment downloads

Fixed a problem that could leave OpenTag unable to open a Gmail attachment it had found, returning an email link instead of working with the file. Attachments found in messages, threads, drafts, and searches now include the information needed to download them from the correct connected account.

Fixes

Keep sign-up controls steady

Fixed the sign-up screen shifting when the privacy notice appeared or was dismissed. Buttons and fields now stay in place on phones and computers, and shorter windows let you scroll the remaining controls clear of the notice.

Fixes

See your current Slack workspace name

Fixed OpenTag continuing to show the old name after a Slack workspace was renamed. Workspace names now refresh automatically, without requiring you to reconnect or reinstall OpenTag.
