Linear Issues MCP

MCPOpen SourceMIT19.5

by keegancsmith • Documentation & Docs

A small read-only MCP server that lets agents fetch Linear issue data and comments using a Linear API or OAuth token.

Example Use Cases

1
Retrieve basic metadata (title, status, assignee, description) for a Linear issue by ID or URL.
2
Fetch the full conversation history and comments for a specific Linear issue to provide context or summarize discussion.
3
Integrate Linear issue lookups into desktop assistant workflows (e.g., Claude for Desktop) using a local MCP endpoint and a provided API token.

Description

This MCP server exposes two tools to retrieve Linear issue details: a basic issue fetcher and a full issue fetcher including comments. It is intended for use by language-model agents (e.g., Claude for Desktop) to surface Linear issue information on demand without granting broader access. The server requires a Linear API token or OAuth access token and is installed/run via npx for quick setup.
