Linear API
GraphQL API for managing Linear issues, projects, cycles, and teams.
npm install @linear/sdk
There is an MCP server that covers similar functionality: Linear MCP Server
Use the API when:
You need fine-grained control, custom error handling, or want to chain multiple API calls in a script.
Use the MCP when:
You want plug-and-play integration with Claude Code and don't need custom logic around the calls.
About
Linear's GraphQL API gives you complete access to your project management data. Create and update issues, manage cycles, query project states, and automate workflows. The GraphQL schema is well-documented and the SDK handles authentication and pagination. More flexible than the MCP server for custom queries and bulk operations.
