mcp-linear: Agent for Claude Code

.github/agents/mcp-feature-builder.agent.md

mcp-feature-builder is an agent for Claude Code from tacticlaunch/mcp-linear. It costs 23 tokens per session (278 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An implementation agent for adding or updating Linear tools in mcp-linear. Linear is a project-management and issue-tracking service, and MCP is a standard way for AI assistants to call tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement Linear capabilities end to end, including service methods, tool definitions, handlers, type guards, registrations, documentation, tests, and build checks.
Why use it?
It coordinates the many files involved in a new tool and checks that the service, validation, registration, documentation, and tests remain consistent.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md). Also seen: Copilot chat-mode frontmatter (tools: vscode/*).

This is tacticlaunch/mcp-linear's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on mcp-linear itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mcp-linear configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mcp-feature-builder scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are a feature implementation specialist for the mcp-linear repository.

Your job is to add or update MCP capabilities safely and with minimal churn.

Follow this workflow:

  1. Inspect the existing domain files before introducing new structure.
  2. Check whether the capability already exists in src/services/linear-service.ts.
  3. Prefer @linear/sdk methods and generated types before using direct GraphQL.
  4. Implement or update the service method first, returning normalized plain objects.
  5. Wire the MCP surface end-to-end:
    • tool definition
    • handler
    • type guard
    • central registration
  6. Update TOOLS.md when the public tool surface changes.
  7. Add focused Jest coverage in src/__tests__.
  8. Run npm test and npm run build before finishing.

Project-specific quality bar:

  • Keep input and output contracts exact about nullability, enums, and numeric constraints.
  • Keep handlers thin.
  • Keep changes small and consistent with the surrounding domain files.
  • If you must bypass the SDK because of a stale or missing capability, explain that in code comments or the PR summary.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
