SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill reduces the friction of managing Linear issues from GitHub by ensuring issues are updated with the right status and that completed work includes a human-readable completion comment.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Issue retrieval and planning support: Pulls issue details and extracts images so context is not lost when screenshots contain critical information.
  • Status updates throughout the workflow: Marks issues as In Progress and updates them to the correct state after completion.
  • Completion comment for reviewer/PM clarity: Adds a structured summary of changes, files changed, and PR reference so teammates can understand outcomes directly in Linear.
  • Sub-issue tree creation: Creates ordered, nested sub-issue structures using title indexing and blocker dependency ordering for reliable DAG-style decomposition.

Quick Start

Use the linear skill to retrieve a LOBE-xxx issue, extract any images from its description, update its status to In Progress, and post a completion comment once the PR is ready while also including the required Fixes/Closes/Resolves keyword in the PR body.

How do I extract images embedded in a Linear issue description for planning?▼

Embedded images in Linear issues are extracted during issue retrieval so critical context from screenshots is not lost, preserving visual information for dependency planning and workflow automation.

Can I create nested sub-issue trees with dependency planning in Linear?▼

Nested sub-issue trees are created using title indexing and blocker dependency ordering, enabling reliable DAG-style decomposition for structured dependency planning within Linear workflows.

Does Linear workflow automation require specific keywords to auto-link and auto-close issues?▼

Auto-linking and auto-closing Linear issues requires including specific PR association keywords such as Fixes, Closes, or Resolves in the GitHub PR body to trigger the correct status transitions.

How do I manage Linear issue workflows for projects using GitHub PR integration?▼

Linear issue workflows are managed by coordinating status transitions with completion comments and enforcing PR association keywords, ensuring issues are auto-linked and auto-closed when a PR is ready.
