mcp-linear: Skill for Claude Code

.github/skills/live-linear-smoke/SKILL.md

live-linear-smoke is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tacticlaunch/mcp-linear. It costs 35 tokens per session (200 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A procedure for safely testing mcp-linear against a real Linear workspace, Linear being a tool for managing software projects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run a small live scenario, check both the workspace change and returned data, and clean up temporary resources afterward.
Why use it?
Local tests may not reveal problems with real accounts, data, permissions, or changing service behavior.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

This is tacticlaunch/mcp-linear's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex 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

live-linear-smoke 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

Use this skill for live validation of MCP tool changes.

Preconditions

  • Local build and unit tests should already pass.
  • Linear credentials or an existing local MCP client setup must be available.

Workflow

  1. Run npm test.
  2. Run npm run build.
  3. Choose the smallest live scenario that exercises the changed capability.
  4. Use temporary resource names such as Smoke Test ... with a timestamp.
  5. Validate both the Linear side effect and the returned normalized payload shape.
  6. Delete or revert all temporary Linear resources before finishing.

Reporting

  • State which live tool calls succeeded.
  • State which temporary entities were created and confirm cleanup.
  • If a live failure occurs, identify whether it is caused by repo code, SDK drift, or workspace/schema behavior.
Changes

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.
