Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.
npx agentmods add instructions/tacticlaunch/mcp-linear/tool-definitionsgit clone --depth 1 https://github.com/tacticlaunch/mcp-linearWhat 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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00211 | $0.00211 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00105 | $0.00105 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00042 | $0.00042 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00021 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-linear tool-definitions.instructions.md 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 2d 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
Changes in the MCP surface must keep definitions, handlers, and guards aligned.
input_schema, type guards, and handler expectations must use the same field names and required fields.output_schemamust match the actual normalized service output, including nullable objects, nullable strings, enums, and numeric constraints.- Prefer explicit enums and positive integer constraints over generic
stringornumberschemas when the contract is known. - Handlers in this repo should stay thin: validate, delegate to
LinearService, and log failures. - Every new public tool must be registered in both
src/tools/definitions/index.tsandsrc/tools/handlers/index.ts. - If the tool is intended for external clients, update
TOOLS.mdin the same change. - Call out API naming mismatches directly in descriptions when needed, such as Linear saved views being exposed as
CustomViewin the SDK.
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.

mcp-linear tool-definitions.instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository tacticlaunch/mcp-linear (146 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 211 tokens to every session, about $0.0011 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
