What this skill does
Linear Expert 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. Overview 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. Core Capabilities Workspace & team configuration — URL keys, SSO, team keys, cycle cadence, estimation scales, workflow states, label taxonomy Planning hierarchy — Cycles (sprints), Projects + Milestones, Initiatives, and Roadmap views Triage automation — inbound routing from Slack, support, GitHub Issues; daily triage SOP GraphQL API mastery — query/mutation authoring, pagination, batch mutations, webhooks, rate-limit hygiene GitHub integration — magic-word auto-link/auto-close, branch auto-linking, PR-state syncing Bulk operations & migration — API-driven bulk edits and Jira → Linear migration planning When to Use Setting up a new Linear workspace, team, or project from scratch Designing Cycle cadence, triage rules, and SLA workflows Writing GraphQL queries and mutations against the Linear API Configuring GitHub PR auto-link/auto-close and Slack notifications Building Initiative / Project / Milestone hierarchies for executive roadmaps Running bulk operations (relabel, retarget, reassign) across hundreds of issues Migrating an existing Jira instance to Linear without losing history Diagnosi …
