Read Linear issues, transition state, and post comments. The entry point for ticket-driven agent workflows.
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 Skill You can read, search, and update Linear issues, list workflow states, and post comments. Use this skill as the entry point for ticket-driven workflows — turn `ENG-123` into a structured payload, transition state, comment on progress. ## When to use this skill - The user references a Linear issue by identifier (`ENG-123`, `OPS-7`, etc.). - The user asks for "my tickets" / "open issues" / "what's assigned to me". - An automation needs to mark work started, post a PR link as a comment, or move a ticket through workflow states. ## Issue identifier format Linear identifiers look like `<TEAM_KEY>-<NUMBER>` — `ENG-123`, `OPS-7`. They are **not** GraphQL UUIDs. The Linear API accepts both forms on `issue(id:)`, so always pass the human identifier the user gave you. Never invent or normalise identifiers — use them verbatim. ## State transition pattern (hard rule) You MUST call `linear_get_workflow_states` first and use the resolved `id` when calling `linear_update_issue_state`. State IDs are per-team UUIDs; state names like `"Todo"` or `"In Progress"` are not portable across teams and cannot be passed to `linear_update_issue_state` directly. Workflow: …

How to install
mdr add initializ/forge/linear@sha256:d57357527e48eab2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260520.cb1a6e8, 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.
