Linear MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol server that provides AI assistants with comprehensive, read-only access to the Linear GraphQL API.
What can it do?
Ask your AI assistant questions like:
- "Show me all in-progress issues for the Engineering team."
- "What's the status of issue ENG-123?"
- "Search for issues related to the authentication refactor."
- "List all active projects and their progress."
- "What teams do we have and who's on each one?"
- "Find all urgent issues assigned to me."
Features
- 6 read-only tools across 3 categories (Issues, Projects, Teams)
- GraphQL-powered — efficient queries that fetch only the fields needed
- LLM-optimized responses — GraphQL connections flattened to plain arrays, priorities mapped to human-readable labels
- Type-safe — built with TypeScript and Zod schema validation
- Security-first — read-only by design, uses Linear personal API keys
