# Linear agent skills for Claude Code, Cursor and RevampKey

> Ready-made Linear playbooks for AI agents: cycle status reports from Linear, with AI, triage your Linear issues with AI, catch up on your Linear work with AI. Free SKILL.md files for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex, or one click in RevampKey.

## Skills

- [Use Linear safely with AI](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/linear/skills/essentials.md): Shows how an AI assistant should confirm your Linear workspace and access level, pick the right lookup, keep results small, and ask before creating or changing anything.
- [Cycle status reports from Linear, with AI](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/linear/skills/cycle-status-report.md): Summarises a Linear cycle's progress by status, ranks the risks to finishing on time, and gives a paste-ready line for a stakeholder update. It only reads your data and never changes issues.
- [Triage your Linear issues with AI](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/linear/skills/issue-triage.md): Sorts new or untriaged Linear issues into assign, prioritise, duplicate, stale or needs-info buckets, and shows every proposed change in a table. It waits for your approval before changing any issue.
- [Catch up on your Linear work with AI](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/linear/skills/my-work-catchup.md): Builds a prioritised view of the issues assigned to you, flagging what is overdue, stalled or waiting on others, with a concrete next step for each. It only reads your queue and asks before changing anything.
- [Turn a planning document into a Linear project](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/linear/skills/project-roadmap-setup.md): Reads a roadmap or brief, drafts a Linear project with milestones and issues, and shows the full plan for review. It creates nothing until you approve.

### What is a Linear agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each Linear skill describes one job, which Linear tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

### Do the Linear skills change anything on their own?

1 of the 5 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in Linear.

### Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect Linear; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

### Do I need the Linear MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the Linear MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The Linear MCP setup guide covers every client.
