What is Linear?
The Linear skill enables seamless integration with the Linear project management platform. Built on the official @linear/sdk, it provides a comprehensive Node.js CLI to read, create, and update issues, projects, and team structures directly from your environment. This addition to Openclaw Skills allows developers and AI agents to automate project organization, ensuring that tasks are updated in real-time without leaving the terminal.
Linear Use Cases
- Triaging urgent bugs by listing high-priority issues and assigning owners.\n- Managing sprint planning by reviewing cycle scopes and creating tasks.\n- Preparing for releases by verifying blockers and updating project milestones.\n- Cleaning up stale documentation by identifying old issues and creating follow-ups.
How Linear Works
- The skill initializes using a Node.js runtime to execute a bundled CLI script.\n2. It authenticates with the Linear GraphQL API using a secure LINEAR_API_KEY.\n3. The workflow starts by reading the current state (listing teams, issues, or projects) to ensure data accuracy.\n4. Mutations are applied to create or update records based on specified parameters like team ID, priority, or state.\n5. The skill provides a detailed summary of changes, including IDs and follow-up actions.
Linear Setup
To begin using this tool with Openclaw Skills, ensure Node.js and npm are installed. Navigate to the scripts directory and install dependencies:\n\nbash\ncd {baseDir}/scripts && npm install\n\n\nNext, obtain your API key from your Linear settings and export it to your environment:\n\nbash\nexport LINEAR_API_KEY=\"your_api_key_here\"\n
Linear Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill interacts with the Linear GraphQL schema. It organizes data into the following primary entities:\n\n| Entity | Description |\n| :--- | :--- |\n| Issues | Core tasks including titles, descriptions, priorities, and states |\n| Projects | High-level initiatives containing multiple issues and milestones |\n| Teams | Organizational units that own issues and projects |\n| Cycles/Milestones | Time-bound containers for organizing sprint and release work |\n| Labels/States | Metadata for categorizing and tracking issue progress |
Linear Advanced Features
- Full support for GraphQL mutations including createIssue, updateIssue, and createComment.\n- Multi-team management with the teams and projects command suite.\n- Fine-grained control over issue metadata such as priority levels, labels, and state IDs.\n- Safe operational rules that prevent ID invention and prioritize narrow updates for data integrity.
