Linear integration

Linear integration for AI agents.

Let your AI agents work in Linear — create and update issues, manage cycles and projects, and search the backlog — through a brokered, audited connection. Open Connector runs the OAuth, seals the token in an encrypted vault, and serves Linear tools to your agent over MCP or a typed API — credentials injected server-side, every call audited, nothing leaving your infrastructure. Open source (AGPL-3.0) and self-hostable.

What your agents can do

Real Linear actions, brokered and audited.

Your user connects Linear once; your agent can then create and update issues, manage cycles and projects, and search the backlog — scoped to the OAuth permissions you grant and the tool allowlist you configure. Every action is least-privilege and written to a tamper-evident audit trail.

  1. 1

    Your user grants Linear access once (OAuth) — the token lands in the vault.

  2. 2

    Your agent calls a tool over MCP or the typed API; Open Connector injects the credential server-side.

  3. 3

    Every brokered call appends a hash-chained audit record — nothing leaves your infra.

FAQ

Linear integration, answered

How do AI agents use Linear through Open Connector?
Your user connects Linear once (OAuth). Open Connector stores the token in an encrypted vault and exposes Linear tools to your agent over MCP or a typed API, injecting the credential server-side on each call — the agent never sees a raw token, and every action is audited.
Is this a Linear MCP server?
Yes. Open Connector can serve Linear as a named MCP server with a scoped tool allowlist and a per-user mcp_url, so any MCP client connects and calls Linear tools with credentials brokered server-side.
Where do Linear OAuth tokens live?
In your own infrastructure. Self-host Open Connector and the Linear token is sealed in an AES-256-GCM vault in your Postgres, injected at call time — it never leaves your environment.
