kendex: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/linear/SKILL.md

linear is a skill for Claude Code from vanillagreencom/kendex. It costs 22 tokens per session (5,541 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A command-line tool for Linear, a service teams use to track issues, projects, milestones, cycles, and related work. It can read and change those records through commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to list, create, update, complete, archive, or relate issues; manage projects and milestones; add comments and labels; handle cycles; and look up teams, users, statuses, or documents.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents one defined way to inspect and update project-tracking data. Local caching can make reads available quickly while changes are sent through the live commands.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is vanillagreencom/kendex's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on kendex 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 kendex 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 C, and why

linear scanned grade C with 2 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 26 executable files (scripts/commands/attachments.sh, scripts/commands/auth-check.sh, scripts/commands/auth-mint.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

A "labelIds not exclusive child labels" error means two labels from one exclusive group. Requires Bash 4.0+ (macOS system Bash 3.2 is unsupported), `curl`, and `jq`.

Linear CLI

.agents/skills/linear/scripts/linear.sh <resource> <action> [options]

Every read and write goes to Linear's API as it runs; no tracker data is stored locally. linear.sh <resource> --help prints per-resource options. --format values: safe (the default, flat and null-safe), compact (a smaller shape for workflow routing), ids (identifiers only), table, raw (the GraphQL nesting, so never assume top-level jq paths). safe renames fields: identifier→id, id→uuid, state.name→state, state.type→state_type, sortOrder→sort_order.

Commands

Resource Actions
issues list, get, bulk-get, create, update, bulk-update, archive, trash/delete, children, list-relations, add-relation, remove-relation, activate, block, unblock, complete, validate-completion
comments / labels / project-labels list, create, update, delete (comments also bulk-list, labels also audit)
projects list, get, create, update, delete, list-dependencies, add-dependency, remove-dependency, post-update, list-updates, reorder, set-sort-order, audit; create/update take --lead EMAIL|ID and repeatable --link LABEL=URL
initiatives / milestones list, get, create, update, delete (initiatives also add-project, remove-project; create/update take --owner EMAIL|ID, --lead-team KEY|NAME, --labels A,B, and repeatable --link LABEL=URL)
teams / users / statuses / documents list, get (users also has me; teams keys reads {urlKey, keys} for outbound tracker links without changing teams list's array)
cycles list, create, update
attachments list (every file an issue references), fetch (download one)
auth-check Report the selected credential, actor, team and writes_enabled for writes that need a configured team (--strict exits non-zero when no team is configured)
auth-mint Mint application token JSON from the client pair without writing files
journal Start, stop or read a bounded local request-attempt journal; off by default
session-status Aggregated status for the /start workflow

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.
