Automate complex workflows with AI that thinks step-by-step.
What is Linear Agent?
Linear Agent is an AI-powered automation tool designed to manage and execute tasks within the Linear issue-tracking platform. It operates as an autonomous assistant that can process natural language instructions to perform actions such as creating, updating, and triaging issues, adding labels, assigning work, and summarizing project status. The system produces structured updates and changes directly within Linear workspaces based on user commands.
Users interact with Linear Agent primarily by providing text-based prompts or commands, either through chat interfaces or integrated commands within Linear. The AI interprets these requests, interacts with the platform’s data, and executes the specified operations. The tool is developed by the team behind the official Linear website, functioning as an integrated extension of their core project management software.
