Linear
OfficialThe Linear API helps manage issues, projects, and product roadmaps.
This monorepo contains the Linear Client SDK for interacting with the Linear GraphQL API. It provides tools for planning and building products, streamlining issues, projects, and product roadmaps for modern software development.
What it does
- Full issue, project, cycle, and team CRUD against the Linear GraphQL API
- Comment, sub-issue, and priority management with no client-side ID juggling
- Cycle and roadmap queries for status-update workflows
- Server-sent events streaming for long-running queries so partial results arrive first
- OAuth browser flow on first invocation, refresh tokens cached by the bridge
- Works in Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, and any MCP client that supports stdio
