 Follow the [Lens Helm connection guide](https://github.com/BerriAI/lens/blob/main/helm/lens/README.md#connect-a-gateway) for complete values, verification, GitOps credential requirements and existing-data migration. Source-chart installation requires a built Lens image until the first signed Lens release is published
 
-### LiteAdmin Slack worker
+### Slack worker
 
 `/admin/mcp` is served inside LiteLLM and does not require `liteadmin.enabled`. That option deploys the separate Slack worker. Set `liteadmin.image.repository` to the worker repository and `liteadmin.image.tag` to an independently published version. A worker tag is required when the worker is enabled. `liteadmin.image.pullPolicy` defaults to `IfNotPresent`
 
+The `slack-worker.yaml` template runs the `slack-worker` container and labels its resources with `app.kubernetes.io/component: slack-worker`. Existing `liteadmin.*` settings, resource names, selectors, and persistent volume names remain stable for upgrades. Use `kubectl get deployments,pods,services,pvc -l app.kubernetes.io/component=slack-worker` to find the worker resources
+
 For an existing Slack deployment, publish or build the worker image before upgrading this chart. Preserve `liteadmin.existingSecret`, the encryption key, and the persistent volume. The chart starts the worker with `litellm-admin-agent --web` and `CONNECTION_AUTH_MODE=native`. See the [worker deployment guide](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm-admin-agent/blob/main/docs/compatibility.md#native-enterprise-deployment)
