What's Wrong?
When posting messages to Slack via the Slack MCP connector and a Routine, the "Sent using @Claude" attribution footer occasionally appears duplicated — showing twice at the bottom of the same message. It does not happen on every post; the behavior is intermittent.

What Should Happen?
The attribution footer appears at most once per message.

Additional Information
- The routine prompt does not include any footer text — the duplication is entirely from the connector
- The issue is intermittent; the same prompt/message structure sometimes produces one footer and sometimes two
- Suspected cause: the connector may be appending the attribution to both the Slack message text field and a blocks element, causing both to render visibly when the message hits certain length or structure thresholds
