SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

## What problem does it solve? Linear is a powerful platform for managing issues, projects, and cycles, but programmatic control requires interacting with its GraphQL API. This Skill provides a dedicated, end-to-end interface to manage Linear resources, enabling automation, integration with existing tools, and persistent, repeatable workflows.

## Core Features & Use Cases

  • Manage issues, projects, cycles, and teams via the GraphQL API.
  • Create, query, and mutate items with proper ID lookups (teamId, stateId, assigneeId) and support for pagination.
  • Automate common workflows such as issue creation, updates, and state transitions across multiple teams.

### Quick Start Connect Linear with your workspace and fetch the first page of issues.

What is the best way to manage Linear projects programmatically?▼

Manage Linear projects programmatically by sending queries and mutations to the GraphQL API endpoint. The Skill handles retrieving necessary IDs and applying guards to ensure safe project modifications.

Do I need a Linear API key to query and mutate issues?▼
