OPS ► LINEAR COMMAND CENTER

Runtime Context

Before executing, load available context:

1. Secrets: Linear API key required for MCP fallback queries.

   Secret Resolution

   • Check $LINEAR_API_KEY env var
   • Then: Doppler MCP tools (mcp__doppler__*) — if Doppler MCP server is configured
   • Then: doppler secrets get LINEAR_API_KEY --plain (if doppler CLI configured in prefs)
   • Then: use password_manager_config.query_cmd from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json
   • If unavailable, use Linear MCP tools exclusively (no curl fallback possible)

2. Preferences: Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR}/preferences.json for secrets_manager / doppler config.

CLI/API Reference

Linear GraphQL (fallback when MCP unavailable)

Command	Usage	Output
curl -X POST https://api.linear.app/graphql -H "Authorization: $LINEAR_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"query":"{ issues(filter: {state: {type: {in: [\"started\",\"unstarted\"]}}}) { nodes { id title state { name } priority assignee { name } } } }"}'	Active issues	JSON
curl -X POST https://api.linear.app/graphql -H "Authorization: $LINEAR_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"query":"{ cycles(filter: {isActive: {eq: true}}) { nodes { id number startsAt endsAt } } }"}'	Current cycles	JSON

Phase 1 — Load data

Run in parallel:

1. mcp__linear__list_teams — get all team IDs
2. mcp__linear__list_issues — get issues with cycle filter (use GraphQL fallback for cycle queries if needed)

Then fetch issues for the current cycle: mcp__linear__list_issues filtered to current cycle ID.

Route by $ARGUMENTS

Argument	Action
(empty), sprint	Show current sprint board
backlog	Show unassigned/unscheduled issues
create [title]	Create a new issue (prompt for details)
update [id]	Update issue by ID

Use batched AskUserQuestion calls (max 4 options each):

AskUserQuestion call 1:

  [Create new issue]
  [Update issue status]
  [Move issue to/from sprint]
  [More...]

AskUserQuestion call 2 (only if "More..."):

  [View backlog]
  [Sync with GSD phases]

---

Create issue flow

Collect from user (or parse from $ARGUMENTS):

• Title
• Team (list choices if ambiguous)
• Priority (urgent/high/medium/low)
• Cycle (current sprint or backlog)
• Assignee (optional)
• Estimate (optional)

Use mcp__linear__create_issue to create. Confirm: Created [id]: [title]

---

GSD sync flow

Read all active GSD STATE.md files across projects. For each active phase:

1. Check if a Linear issue exists with matching phase reference.
2. If not, offer to create one.
3. If status differs (GSD says done, Linear says in-progress), offer to sync.

Update Linear issues to match GSD phase completion status.

Use AskUserQuestion after displaying any view to get the next action.

---

Native tool usage

Tasks — sprint work tracking

When the user starts working on a Linear issue, use TaskCreate to track it locally. Update with TaskUpdate as the issue progresses. This bridges Linear state with local session state.

WebFetch — Linear API fallback

When Linear MCP tools hit quota limits or fail, fall back to WebFetch with the Linear GraphQL API:

WebFetch(url: "https://api.linear.app/graphql", method: "POST", headers: {"Authorization": "$LINEAR_API_KEY"}, body: '{"query":"{ issues(filter: {cycle: {id: {eq: \"<id>\"}}}}) { nodes { id title state { name } } } }"}')
