# Channels

{% hint style="warning" %}

#### Channels are currently in early access

We’re slowly rolling out access to channels. Stay tuned for more progress on the features below.
{% endhint %}

Channels allow you to bring the power of [GitBook Assistant](https://gitbook-open-v2-preview.gitbook.workers.dev/url/gitbook.com/docs/ai-and-search/gitbook-ai-assistant) and [GitBook Agent](https://gitbook-open-v2-preview.gitbook.workers.dev/url/gitbook.com/docs/gitbook-agent/what-is-gitbook-agent) into other tools and workflows.

When GitBook Agent works from Slack, GitHub, or Linear, it automatically links the change request to the originating thread, issue, or pull request.

To add a channel, open your site’s **Settings** and click on **Channels**.
