Linear

Connection selection

Use authenticated Linear MCP tools first when they are available in the agent's environment. Detect this by tool availability, without depending on a particular MCP server name. Use the API key and direct GraphQL instructions below only when Linear MCP tools are unavailable or when raw API or curl access is explicitly needed.

Windows PowerShell equivalents for the repeated Linear GraphQL curl and environment-variable snippets are in references/windows.md.

[ -n "$LINEAR_API_KEY" ] && echo "LINEAR_API_KEY is set" || echo "LINEAR_API_KEY is NOT set"

If LINEAR_API_KEY is missing and authenticated Linear MCP tools are unavailable, ask the user to provide it before proceeding.
