What it does
Linear is an agent skill from olasunkanmi-SE/codebuddy. Manage Linear issues via the linear-cli (unofficial or custom wrapper).
Its SKILL.md is about 250 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in AI & LLM Engineering. It works with Linear. The repository describes itself as: An Autonomous AI Software Engineer. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- AI & LLM Engineering work in your project
Example prompts
- “/linear”
Requirements
- A credential in LINEAR_API_KEY
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a9b8cd0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
LINEAR_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Linear loads about 246 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 43 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
The full file from olasunkanmi-SE/codebuddy at commit a9b8cd0, republished under its MIT licence (© olasunkanmi-SE). 43 words, ~246 tokens.
