Research direction

Start by locating the Slack button click handling entry point and any existing tests for button interactions. Confirm how repeated clicks are currently processed; done means repeated clicks on the same button result in only one execution, regardless of whether they come from the same or different users.

Description

hackbot

If the same user or different users clicked on the same button multiple times, it should execute only one.

We might later want to allow different users to click on the same button for use cases like feedback, but that’s for later when there is a use case for that.
