SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Gathering status, assignees, deadlines, and recent comments from Linear issues manually is slow and error-prone. This Skill retrieves only the relevant Linear information for a specified target, so downstream workflows can classify or summarize it without wading through the full issue tracker. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Targeted Retrieval: Accepts issue IDs, URLs, views, projects, labels, teams, assignees, keywords, date ranges, and exclusion criteria to fetch only what is needed. - Auth & Config Checks: Detects missing Linear MCP setup, guides registration via codex mcp add linear, and handles OAuth reauthentication errors with clear next steps. - Structured Output: Returns a compact Markdown table with update time, issue ID, status, assignee, deadline, summary, links, and retrieval rationale, plus a failure-format response when data cannot be fetched. - Use Case: Before a weekly planning meeting, ask for all unresolved issues assigned to your team with approaching deadlines, and receive a deduplicated table of statuses, blockers, and linked PRs ready for review. ## Quick Start Use the fetch-linear-materials skill to collect the status, assignees, deadlines, and recent comments for the issues in my Linear team view from the past week.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fetch Linear issues with an AI agent?▼

Provide a target such as an issue ID, URL, view, project, label, team, or keyword plus an optional date range. The skill uses Linear MCP tools to fetch status, assignee, deadline, and recent comments, returning a compact Markdown table.

How to set up Linear MCP for Codex CLI?▼

Register the official Linear MCP endpoint with `codex mcp add linear --url https://mcp.linear.app/mcp`, then complete the browser OAuth approval. If authentication expires, run `codex mcp login linear` and retry the same target.

Does this skill update or write to Linear issues?▼

No, it only reads data. It does not edit files, write comments, classify results into categories, or post notifications; classification and file updates are left to downstream processing.

Why does Linear data fetching fail with a 401 error?▼

A 401 or oauth_token_invalid_grant error means the OAuth session expired. Re-run `codex mcp login linear` to reauthenticate, then retry the same target; the skill stops fetching instead of working around auth errors.

What are the limitations of fetching Linear data this way?▼

It cannot confirm decisions made in Slack or Docs from Linear alone, does not dump full issue lists or entire comment threads, and requires correct workspace, team, and issue permissions to see the requested targets.
