What it does
Live Linear Smoke is an agent skill from tacticlaunch/mcp-linear. Run safe live smoke tests for mcp-linear against a real Linear workspace. Use this when a change needs validation beyond local unit tests and build checks.
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 Testing & QA, covering QA and bug reports, Unit testing and MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: MCP server that enables AI assistants to interact with Linear project management system through natural language, allowing users to retrieve, create, and update issues, projects… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve QA and bug reports
- Tasks that involve Unit testing
- Tasks that involve MCP servers
Example prompts
- “/live-linear-smoke”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Run npm test.
- Run npm run build.
- Choose the smallest live scenario that exercises the changed capability.
- Use temporary resource names such as Smoke Test ... with a timestamp.
- Validate both the Linear side effect and the returned normalized payload shape.
- Delete or revert all temporary Linear resources before finishing.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cde0c4f. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Live Linear Smoke loads about 251 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 121 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.

- live-linear-smoke
- description
- Run safe live smoke tests for mcp-linear against a real Linear workspace. Use this when a change needs validation beyond local unit tests and build checks.
Use this skill for live validation of MCP tool changes.
Preconditions
- Local build and unit tests should already pass.
- Linear credentials or an existing local MCP client setup must be available.
Workflow
- Run
npm test. - Run
npm run build. - Choose the smallest live scenario that exercises the changed capability.
- Use temporary resource names such as
Smoke Test ...with a timestamp. - Validate both the Linear side effect and the returned normalized payload shape.
- Delete or revert all temporary Linear resources before finishing.
Reporting
- State which live tool calls succeeded.
- State which temporary entities were created and confirm cleanup.
- If a live failure occurs, identify whether it is caused by repo code, SDK drift, or workspace/schema behavior.
