Master-level expertise in Linear configuration, workflow design, GraphQL API mastery, Cycle and Project management, Initiative-level roadmaps, triage automation, GitHub integration, and migration from Jira. Covers everything from workspace setup to programmatic bulk operations against the Linear API.
Linear is an opinionated, keyboard-driven issue tracker built around a strict data model (Team → Project → Issue → Sub-issue) and a GraphQL-only public API. Unlike Jira, Linear's strength is its lack of configurability: there is one workflow shape (Backlog → Unstarted → Started → Completed → Canceled), one priority scale (0-4), and a tight set of first-class concepts (Cycles, Projects, Initiatives, Labels, Milestones). The job of a Linear expert is to operate fluently inside those rails while extending the system through the API, automations, and integrations.
Linear's API is GraphQL-only at https://api.linear.app/graphql; auth via personal API key (Authorization: <key>) or OAuth2.
linear_query() {
curl -s -X POST https://api.linear.app/graphql \
-H "Authorization: $LINEAR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{\"query\": \"$1\"}"
}
Cache team/label/state UUIDs locally, use nested selection to avoid N+1 calls, and prefer webhooks over polling. See the references below for the full query catalog and operating workflows.

In Scope: Linear workspace, team, and project configuration; cycle and project planning; Initiative and Roadmap hierarchy; triage workflow design; GitHub PR integration; GraphQL query and mutation authoring; bulk operations via API; webhook configuration; Jira → Linear migration planning and execution.
Out of Scope: Jira-side configuration and migration freeze (hand off to jira-expert/); Notion documentation pages for Linear roadmaps (hand off to notion-pm/); strategic prioritization and OKR setting (hand off to senior-pm/, execution/brainstorm-okrs/); sprint coaching and team health (hand off to scrum-master/); release notes generation from Linear issues (hand off to execution/release-notes/).
Limitations: Linear has no custom fields; all extension happens through labels, descriptions, or external systems. As of September 2026 the Free plan caps at 250 issues and 2 teams; Initiatives are on every plan, but sub-initiatives and SAML/SCIM are Enterprise-only and team initiatives need Business or Enterprise (verify on linear.app/pricing). API rate limits depend on auth type, not plan: API keys get 2,500 requests/hour per user, OAuth apps 5,000/hour, each with an hourly complexity budget; heavy automation may require coordination. Importers preserve most history but cannot recreate Jira's custom workflow states; mapping is many-to-five. GraphQL schema evolves continuously; pin client code to the deprecation calendar.
| Integration | Direction | What Flows |
|---|---|---|
jira-expert/ | Jira → Linear | Migration mappings, custom-field translation, freeze coordination |
notion-pm/ | Linear → Notion | Roadmap embeds, Initiative pages, project status rollups |
execution/create-prd/ | PRD → Linear | PRD page becomes the Linear Project description; PRD sections become Milestones |
execution/brainstorm-okrs/ | OKR → Linear | Initiatives mapped to Objectives; Projects tagged with KR identifiers |
execution/outcome-roadmap/ | Roadmap → Linear | Outcome roadmap rows mapped to Linear Initiatives; outputs become Projects |
execution/release-notes/ | Linear → Release Notes | Closed issues in a cycle/project become release note line items |
execution/prioritization-frameworks/ | Scoring → Linear | RICE/WSJF scores written back to labels or description fields |
scrum-master/ | Linear → Analytics | Cycle data feeds velocity_analyzer.py and sprint_health_scorer.py |
senior-pm/ | Linear → Portfolio | Initiative-level rollups feed project_health_dashboard.py |
delivery-manager/ | Linear → Release | Project completion state and milestone dates feed release coordination |
