Create, update and assign Linear issues from your AI tools.
issue CRUDteam / project lookupstatus updates
The Linear MCP server bridges your AI client and Linear's issue tracker. Create issues, update status, assign, list teams and projects — Linear is what most modern software teams use to track work in 2026, and an MCP integration lets AI assistants participate in that workflow rather than running parallel to it.
