Linear MCP connector

Linear is a project management platform designed for software teams to track issues, plan sprints, and manage product roadmaps. The Linear MCP connector allows AI agents to execute GraphQL operations to query project data, create and update issues, and manage team workflows. It also supports retrieving roadmap information, tracking issue status across projects, and integrating development progress with planning cycles.

Authentication type

  • OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code - Requires a one-time user login to authorize the agent to access the service on their behalf.

Uses

Use the Linear MCP connector to perform the following actions:

  • Create and assign software development tasks to track project progress
  • Update issue statuses automatically when work completes in other systems
  • Generate sprint reports by querying team velocity and completed work
  • Sync customer feedback directly into Linear as new feature requests
  • Retrieve team workload data to balance tasks across developers
  • Link pull requests and code changes to their corresponding Linear issues
  • Escalate critical bugs by creating high-priority issues with context
