What's New
Linear Agent is a frontier language model-powered assistant integrated directly into Linear's workspace. It's designed to address a core bottleneck in product development: synthesizing the scattered context needed to make good decisions about what to build and where to allocate team resources.
The agent understands your roadmap, issues, customer requests, and—soon—your codebase. You can access it from the desktop app (Cmd/Ctrl + J), mobile, comments, Slack (@Linear), or Microsoft Teams.
Core Capabilities
Chat & Context Synthesis: Ask Linear Agent to find related issues, group them by relevance, extract common requirements across customer requests, or draft project updates. Common use cases include:
- Researching past feature requests when starting a project
- Catching up on what changed during time off
- Identifying at-risk or behind-schedule work
- Drafting issues from meeting notes or Slack discussions
Skills: When you find a useful workflow, save it as a reusable skill. Linear can suggest applicable skills automatically and execute them via slash commands or the skills menu.
Automations: Automatically trigger agent workflows when issues enter triage (e.g., automatically summarizing customer impact). Available on Business and Enterprise plans.
Code Intelligence (coming soon): Extends the agent's understanding to your codebase, allowing non-technical teammates to ask questions about how features work, who owns systems, and what recently changed.
Availability & Pricing
Linear Agent is now in public beta for all teams at no additional cost during the beta period. Chat functionality will remain included in the base seat price at general availability. Automations and Code Intelligence may move to usage-based pricing beyond certain thresholds, with advance notice provided before any changes take effect.
The release also includes numerous improvements and bug fixes across cycles, exports, GitHub integrations, projects, and notifications.
