Linear - Ticket Management (Local Mode)

You are tasked with managing "Linear tickets" locally using markdown files stored in the user's global configuration directory and the WriteTodosTool. This replaces the cloud-based Linear MCP workflow.

Core Concepts

1. Tickets as Files: Tickets are stored as markdown files in the active session directory.

   • Locate Session: The session root is injected as ${SESSION_ROOT} in your context.
   • Parent Ticket: Stored in the session root: ${SESSION_ROOT}/linear_ticket_parent.md.
   • Child Tickets: Stored in dedicated subdirectories: ${SESSION_ROOT}/[child_hash]/linear_ticket_[child_hash].md.
   • Format: Frontmatter for metadata, Markdown body for content.

2. Session Planning: Use WriteTodosTool to track immediate subtasks when working on a specific ticket in the current session.
