Linear MCP Server
Manage Linear issues, projects, and workflows directly from your AI coding agent without leaving the terminal.
Claude Code Cursor
Overview
The Linear MCP Server bridges your project management workflow directly into your AI coding environment. Instead of context-switching between Linear's web interface and your editor, you can create issues, update statuses, assign tasks, and query project boards all from within your terminal or IDE.
By leveraging the Model Context Protocol, this server exposes Linear's full API surface to AI agents. Your agent can read sprint backlogs, create sub-issues, transition ticket statuses, and even generate issue descriptions based on code changes. This means you can stay in flow while keeping your project board perfectly in sync with your development progress.
The integration is especially powerful for solo developers and small teams who want to minimize overhead. Instead of manually updating tickets after each commit, your AI agent can handle the bookkeeping, letting you focus on writing code.

Who Is This For?
- Full-stack developers managing sprint backlogs without leaving the terminal
- Team leads triaging and assigning incoming bug reports via AI agent
- Solo developers keeping issue boards updated automatically as they code
- Engineering managers querying project velocity and status from their editor
