## Prerequisites

* A Slack workspace where you have admin permissions
* If you are not an admin, follow the [non-admin installation guide](/non-admin-install)

## Installation

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add to Slack">
    Click the **Add to Slack** button on the [Clarity website](https://clarityapp.io). You will be redirected to Slack to authorize the app.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize permissions">
    Review the permissions Clarity needs and click **Allow**. Clarity requires access to read messages in channels where you enable coaching so it can analyze them and suggest improvements.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Complete onboarding">
    After installation, Clarity sends you a direct message in Slack. Run any `/clarity-` command to open the onboarding modal, where you select which channels to enable auto coaching in.

## Your first rephrase

Try the rephrase command to see Clarity in action:

```
/clarity-rephrase I need this done ASAP its really urgent and nobody seems to care
```

Clarity analyzes your message and suggests an improved version:

> Could you please prioritize this task? It's time-sensitive and I want to make sure it's on your radar.

Click **Send** to post the improved version, or **Didn't like it** to dismiss.

<Note>
  The `/clarity-rephrase` response is only visible to you. Your original text is never posted.
