Frequently Asked Questions about Linear

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate creating and updating Linear issues in bulk?▼

Automate bulk Linear issue management by writing TypeScript scripts with the @linear/sdk package. This approach handles loops, applies data transformations, and executes bulk updates across team workflows efficiently.

What is the best way to manage Linear projects and team workflows programmatically?▼

Manage Linear projects programmatically using MCP tools for simple operations or SDK scripts for complex automation. The GraphQL API acts as a fallback for direct queries and custom team workflow coordination.

Does the Linear SDK support GraphQL API queries for fetching issues?▼

Yes, the Linear SDK supports GraphQL API queries for fetching issues. The @linear/sdk dependency enables querying issues, managing project structures, and interacting with data using GraphQL conventions.

Can I use MCP tools for simple Linear issue operations instead of writing scripts?▼

Yes, MCP tools handle simple Linear issue operations like basic fetching or updates. SDK scripts are recommended for complex automation involving loops and bulk updates, while the GraphQL API serves as a fallback.

When should I use the Linear GraphQL API directly instead of the SDK?▼

Use the Linear GraphQL API directly as a fallback when SDK scripts or MCP tools cannot meet specific custom query needs. It provides direct access for fetching issues and managing project structures outside standard SDK conventions.

What do I need to authenticate and manage Linear issues using the SDK?▼

Authenticating and managing Linear issues with the SDK requires the @linear/sdk dependency and valid API credentials. Following conventions for issue states, labels, and authentication ensures successful team workflow coordination.
