Update Linear Post-Job

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the critical, multi-step process of updating Linear issues after a job is completed. It ensures accurate status tracking, proper parent-child issue management, and clear communication within the Linear workflow, saving manual effort and preventing oversight.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Child Issue Closure: Marks individual completed jobs (child issues) as "Done" in Linear and adds a detailed completion comment.
• Parent Work Block Tracking: Automatically checks if all child issues within a parent work block are complete and updates the parent's status accordingly.
• Error Handling & Reporting: Provides robust error handling for Linear API calls and generates comprehensive completion reports for the Planning Agent.
• Use Case: After an AI agent finishes a coding task and QA validates it, this skill can automatically update the corresponding Linear issue to "Done," add a summary of changes, and then check if the larger project (parent issue) is also complete, updating it if all sub-tasks are finished.

Quick Start

Update Linear issue 'LAW-5' to "Done" after job completion, then check its parent 'LAW-4' for overall work block completion.
