Linear Tracker

Use this when a task wants PRDs/issues published, especially from Rat King flows.

The lock

Before publishing to Linear, call linear_tracker_resolve from the project cwd.

Linear publishing is allowed only when all three are true:

Project-local policy says Linear: nearest AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, docs/agents/issue-tracker.md, or .pi/settings.json points to Linear.
Project-local association exists: Linear teamKey or teamId is configured locally.
Capability exists: direct Linear API auth or authenticated Linear MCP exists. Direct auth may come from env vars, common agent-secrets names, or a project-local Linear skill/policy that names a secret such as rubicon:linear_api_key.

Global auth, global MCP, or a skill mentioning Linear is capability, not routing. Explicit GitHub/not-Linear local policy wins.
