SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Streamline Linear workflow automation by exposing a deterministic CLI wrapper that interacts with Linear's GraphQL API and dynamically generates its a2c workspace config at runtime to simplify automation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deterministic CLI surface for Linear actions via Api2Cli (a2c)
  • Workspace config generation at runtime to reduce boilerplate and keep integrations lightweight
  • Use cases: automate status changes, create issues, and update projects from scripts or CI workflows

Quick Start

Export LINEAR_API_KEY and run the wrapper script to view available commands.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Linear issue status changes from a script or CI pipeline?

You can automate Linear tasks from CI pipelines using a deterministic CLI wrapper that executes Linear GraphQL operations. It dynamically generates the a2c workspace config at runtime to reduce boilerplate and enable scriptable issue status changes and project updates.

What is a deterministic CLI wrapper for Linear GraphQL operations?

A deterministic CLI wrapper for Linear GraphQL operations exposes a consistent command-line surface for Linear actions via Api2Cli (a2c). It streamlines Linear workflow automation by handling API interactions predictably, reducing boilerplate for scripts and CI workflows.

Do I need a Linear API key to run Linear workflows from the CLI?

Yes, you need a Linear API key to run Linear workflows from the CLI. You must export your key as LINEAR_API_KEY and have Api2Cli installed to execute the wrapper script and generate the runtime a2c workspace config.

Does the Linear CLI wrapper support creating issues and updating projects?

Yes, the Linear CLI wrapper supports creating issues and updating projects. It exposes a deterministic CLI surface for these Linear actions via Api2Cli, allowing software development teams to automate common tasks from scripts or CI workflows.

How does workspace config generation work for Linear automation scripts?

Workspace config generation for Linear automation scripts occurs at runtime to reduce boilerplate. The wrapper dynamically generates the a2c workspace config when the script runs, keeping integrations lightweight and simplifying the setup for Linear GraphQL operations.

What are the limitations of using a CLI wrapper for Linear API automation?

Limitations of using a CLI wrapper for Linear API automation include a dependency on having Api2Cli installed and a strict requirement for the LINEAR_API_KEY environment variable. It targets software development teams and CI workflows, requiring runtime generation of the a2c workspace config.
