linear-implement

linear-implement is a skill for Claude Code from dgalarza/claude-code-workflows. It costs 80 tokens per session (3,983 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for implementing issues from Linear, a tool for tracking software-development work. It covers issue analysis, planning, test-driven implementation, reviews, validation, and pull-request creation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when given a Linear issue ID to gather context, create a branch, implement the work, run security and Rails reviews, apply feedback, and prepare a pull request.
Why use it?
It turns a tracked issue into a structured engineering process and keeps requirements, tests, reviews, and delivery connected.

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

linear-implement 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 1mo 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.

Linear Issue Implementation

Overview

This skill provides a comprehensive workflow for implementing Linear issues with professional software engineering practices. It automates the entire development lifecycle from issue analysis through PR creation, ensuring quality through test-driven development, parallel code reviews, and systematic validation.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

  • User provides a Linear issue ID (format: TRA-9, DEV-123, etc.)
  • User requests implementation of a Linear issue
  • User wants a structured TDD approach with code review
  • User needs automated workflow from issue to PR

Examples:

  • "Implement TRA-142"
  • "Help me build the feature in DEV-89"
  • "Work on Linear issue ABC-456"

Core Workflow

The skill follows a 14-step process:

  1. Fetch Linear Issue - Retrieve complete issue details via Linear MCP
  2. Gather Additional Context - Search Obsidian, Sentry, and GitHub for related information
  3. Move to In Progress - Update issue status to indicate active work
  4. Create Feature Branch - Use Linear's suggested git branch naming
  5. Analyze & Plan - Break down requirements and create implementation plan
  6. Save to Memory - Store plan in memory graph for tracking
  7. Review Plan - Present plan for user confirmation
  8. TDD Implementation - Invoke tdd-workflow skill for test-driven development
  9. Parallel Code Reviews - Invoke parallel-code-review skill for comprehensive analysis
  10. Address Feedback - Invoke code-review-implementer skill to systematically fix issues
  11. Validation - Ensure all tests and linters pass
  12. Logical Commits - Create meaningful commit history
  13. Create PR - Generate comprehensive pull request with Linear linking
  14. Final Verification - Confirm CI/CD pipeline and Linear integration

Workflow Implementation Details

Step 1: Fetch Linear Issue Details

Retrieve the complete issue using Linear MCP tools:
