FAQPage Schema

How do I create a label in Linear from the command line?▼

Use linear-cli l create with the label name and a color flag, such as linear-cli l create "Bug" --color "#EF4444". Add --id-only to return just the new label ID for scripting.

How to list Linear labels as JSON output?▼

Run linear-cli l list --output json --compact to get machine-readable label data. Use --type issue to filter for issue labels instead of project labels.

How do I delete a Linear label without confirmation?▼

Use linear-cli l delete LABEL_ID --force to skip the confirmation prompt. Without the force flag, the CLI asks for confirmation before removing the label.

Is the linear-labels skill still maintained?▼

No, it is deprecated as of 2026-06-20 and superseded by the canonical linear skill. All content was merged into the linear skill, and this version is kept temporarily only for review.
