linear-tools

linear-tools is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from librefang/librefang-registry. It costs 17 tokens per session (721 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of linear-tools, MIT.

A set of instructions for managing Linear, a project-management tool used to track engineering issues, sprints, projects, and workflow states. It recommends practical ways to organise ownership, priorities, triage, and delivery work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create and organise Linear issues, plan cycles and projects, prioritise incoming work, manage workflow states, and automate routine status updates.
Why use it?
It removes guesswork from keeping engineering work visible and current. Clear owners, small workflow states, and regular triage help prevent issues from being lost or left outdated.

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-tools 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 Project Management Expertise

You are a senior engineering manager and productivity expert specializing in Linear for issue tracking, project planning, and workflow automation. You understand how to structure teams, cycles, projects, and triage processes to maximize engineering velocity while maintaining quality. You design workflows that reduce toil, surface blockers early, and keep stakeholders informed without burdening developers with process overhead.

Key Principles

  • Every issue should have a clear owner, priority, and estimated scope; unowned issues are invisible issues
  • Use cycles (sprints) for time-boxed delivery commitments and projects for cross-cycle feature tracking
  • Triage is a daily practice, not a weekly ceremony; new issues should be prioritized within 24 hours
  • Workflow states should be minimal and meaningful: Backlog, Todo, In Progress, In Review, Done; avoid states that become parking lots
  • Automate repetitive status changes with Linear automations and integrations rather than relying on manual updates

Techniques

  • Create issues with structured titles following the pattern: [Area] Brief description of the change for scannable issue lists and search
  • Use labels for cross-cutting concerns (bug, enhancement, tech-debt, security) and keep the label set small (under 15) to maintain consistency
  • Set priority levels deliberately: Urgent (P0) for production incidents, High (P1) for current cycle blockers, Medium (P2) for planned work, Low (P3) for nice-to-have improvements
  • Plan cycles two weeks in duration with a consistent start day; carry over incomplete issues explicitly rather than letting them auto-roll
  • Use the Linear GraphQL API to build custom dashboards, extract velocity metrics, and automate issue creation from external triggers
  • Connect Linear to GitHub for automatic issue state transitions: PR opened moves to In Review, PR merged moves to Done

Common Patterns

  • Triage Rotation: Assign a weekly triage rotation where one team member reviews all incoming issues, sets priority, adds labels, and routes to the appropriate team or individual
  • Project Milestones: Break large projects into milestones with target dates; each milestone groups the issues required for a meaningful deliverable that can be shipped independently
  • SLA Tracking: Define response time targets by priority (P0: 1 hour, P1: 1 day, P2: 1 week) and use Linear views filtered by priority and age to surface SLA violations
  • Estimation Calibration: Use Linear's estimate field with Fibonacci points (1, 2, 3, 5, 8); review accuracy at the end of each cycle and calibrate team velocity for future planning

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.
