Interact with Linear project management - query issues, update status, create tickets, and manage workflows using the Linear GraphQL API. Use when working with Linear tickets, sprints, or project tracking.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Linear
## Connection selection
Use authenticated Linear MCP tools first when they are available in the agent's environment. Detect this by tool availability, without depending on a particular MCP server name. Use the API key and direct GraphQL instructions below only when Linear MCP tools are unavailable or when raw API or `curl` access is explicitly needed.
Windows PowerShell equivalents for the repeated Linear GraphQL `curl` and environment-variable snippets are in `references/windows.md`.
<IMPORTANT>
Before using the direct API fallback, check if the required environment variable is set:
```bash
[ -n "$LINEAR_API_KEY" ] && echo "LINEAR_API_KEY is set" || echo "LINEAR_API_KEY is NOT set"
```
If LINEAR_API_KEY is missing and authenticated Linear MCP tools are unavailable, ask the user to provide it before proceeding.
</IMPORTANT>
## Understanding Linear Identifiers
Linear uses two types of identifiers for issues:
- **Human-readable identifier** (e.g., `ALL-1234`): Displayed to users, used in search queries. This is the team key + number.
…
The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.8b05933, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
A 17 of 17 checks passed. Fixed automatic checks with no AI involved, so the same checks give the same answer every run.
