    2. Verify Webhook: It responds to Slack's verification challenges to ensure the webhook is active.
    3. Check if Bot: The workflow checks if the sender is a bot; if so, it ignores the message to avoid unnecessary processing.
    4. Send Initial Message: If the message is from a user, an initial confirmation message is sent, indicating that their query is being processed.
    5. AI Agent: The workflow utilizes an AI model to generate a response based on the user's message and context from previous interactions stored in memory.
    6. Call Confluence Workflow Tool: It can query a knowledge base for relevant information to enhance the AI's response.
    7. Delete Initial Message: The initial acknowledgment message is deleted to keep the conversation tidy.
    8. Send Final Message: Finally, the AI-generated response is sent back to the user, providing the requested information.
