Detect tracking

Tracked if the repo has a “Linear tracking” (or equivalent) section in CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, or .cursor/rules/* that names team + project.

Skipped if .linear-tracking-skip exists at repo root.

If tracked

Follow the protocol written in-repo:

1. Search before create.
2. Non-trivial work → file/update an issue in the named project + milestone.
3. Backlog → In Progress at start → Done only when shipped.
4. Close the loop before session end (state and/or comment).
5. Prefer Linear’s generated branch names.
