SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps OpenClaw agents manage Linear issues reliably without losing ownership context, misapplying workflow states, or relying on fragile manual API operations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Semantic Workflow Management: Consider, begin, hand off, refuse, escalate, manage, park, and complete work while coordinating status, delegate, assignee, labels, and comments.
  • Issue and Project Operations: Create, inspect, edit, search, prioritize, label, relate, and organize issues across projects, milestones, teams, and boards.
  • Secure Agent Collaboration: Discover per-agent credentials, diagnose authentication, verify mutations consistently, fetch protected Linear attachments, and enforce communication and review hygiene.
  • Use Case: An agent can accept a delegated issue, begin implementation, attach progress or review context, and hand the work to the appropriate reviewer without leaving stale ownership fields behind.

Quick Start

Use the Linear skill to inspect issue AI-123, take ownership if it is delegated to you, and begin the appropriate workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage Linear issues with an agent without losing ownership context or workflow state?

Agents can manage Linear issues by preserving accurate ownership, workflow state, and audit context throughout task intake, implementation, delegation, and review handoffs without relying on fragile manual API operations.

What do I need to automate Linear project tracking and issue management via API?

Automating Linear project tracking requires the Linear CLI, a valid Linear API or OAuth-compatible token, and access to the Linear GraphQL API to execute mutations and fetch protected attachments securely.

How do I delegate and hand off Linear workflow states to another agent or reviewer?

You can delegate work by applying semantic workflow management to coordinate status, delegate, assignee, labels, and comments, allowing an agent to accept an issue, implement it, and hand it to the appropriate reviewer without leaving stale ownership fields.

Can I use the Linear CLI to search, prioritize, and organize issues across milestones and teams?

Yes, the Linear CLI supports issue and project operations that allow you to create, inspect, edit, search, prioritize, label, relate, and organize issues across projects, milestones, teams, and boards.

How does agent collaboration handle authentication and verify mutations for the Linear GraphQL API?

Secure agent collaboration discovers per-agent credentials, diagnoses authentication issues, verifies mutations consistently, and enforces communication and review hygiene when interacting with the Linear GraphQL API.

When should I avoid manual Linear API operations for issue intake and escalation?

You should avoid manual API operations when managing complex workflows involving escalation, task intake, or review handoffs, as fragile manual calls can misapply workflow states and lose critical ownership context.
