Create an issue
Creates an issue in a Linear team, with an optional Markdown description, priority, assignee, labels, due date and parent issue.
Comment on an issue

A person can approve first
Any write action can be set to wait for a person's approval before it runs, so an agent asks before it changes anything.
Connection
How it connects
Connect it once in the console, then give it to the agents and workflows that need it.
Paste an API key from your Linear account.

Kept safe
- Credentials are stored encrypted with your organization's own keys.
