Showing 20 of 21. Your agent can use every one of them; you don't pick them, you ask for the outcome.

How it works

Connected in a minute. In your control after that.

  1. Connect Linear

    Open Connections, find Linear and press Connect. You sign in on Linear's own page; there's nothing to configure.

  2. Choose what it may do

    Full, Ask first or Read-only, for the whole workspace. Share Linear with the team, or keep it under each person's own login.

  3. Ask from anywhere

    Text your agent on iMessage or WhatsApp, message it in Slack or the app, or put a Linear job on a schedule: every morning, every Friday.

Works with your other tools

Linear, together with the rest of your stack.

Ask for an outcome that spans apps and your agent pulls from each one, cross-checks them and sends back one answer.
