Query and manage Linear issues, projects, cycles, and teams using the Linear GraphQL API. Supports listing, creating, updating, and searching issues across your workspace. Calls api.linear.app directly without any third-party proxy.

When to use it

  • Check all issues assigned to you before a standup
  • Create a bug report from a terminal session
  • Filter a team's backlog by state to find blocked work
  • Look up a specific issue by ID during a code review
  • List active sprint cycles for a team
