Linear is fast at moving issues. It's still slow at understanding them.
What it does
- Move an issue into your "analyze" workflow state → the AI posts a codebase-grounded breakdown
- Comment back → it answers in the thread and locks down the scope
- Move it to your "build" state → it opens a pull request
- HMAC-verified webhooks over Linear's GraphQL API; the relay routes every resource type, not just issues
What it does not do
It never changes workflow states, never assigns, never merges.
Honest note: beta — built and smoke-tested, real usage will find the edges.
Setup
clone → ./setup.sh → pick Linear → answer a few questions
~5 minutes. No server, no database, free.
