linear-milestone-create

To create Linear milestones with plan-driven issues, the skill lists your Linear projects, proposes a milestone name based on existing ones, and uses the Linear MCP to create issues. It updates your plan files with the resulting linear_project and linear_issue URLs.

Yes, you can link plan files to a new Linear milestone. When creating the milestone, the skill optionally generates issues from plan prefixes and updates the plan files with the corresponding linear_project and linear_issue URLs for tracking.

Yes, the Linear MCP is required to automate milestone and issue creation. The process validates Linear MCP availability first and uses mcp__linear-server__create_issue to generate issues, returning clear error messaging if the server is unavailable.

When a Linear project is missing, the process handles the error by validating project availability and returning clear error messaging. It lists existing user projects for selection to ensure the milestone and issues are created in a valid location.

Milestone names are generated by analyzing existing milestones within the selected Linear project. The skill proposes a new milestone name based on this historical context, ensuring consistent naming conventions across your project management workflow.

Structure plan-based issues using plan prefixes to define the issues. The skill reads these prefixes, creates the corresponding issues in Linear via MCP, and links them to the newly created milestone, ensuring consistent project scaffolding and tracking.
