Sub-initiatives

Sub-initiatives
Organize strategic initiatives into a hierarchical structure that maps to how your company plans its work.
Initiatives can now be nested up to five levels deep, making it possible to represent cascading goals, workstreams, and OKRs. Each initiative has a dedicated page that displays its projects and sub-initiatives together, giving initiative owners a central place to track progress, post updates, and share context.
Sub-initiatives are available on the Enterprise plan. Learn more in the docs.
Copy Developer Docs as Markdown for LLMs
Any Docs page can now be copied as Markdown, so you can feed the full content into an LLM. This is particularly helpful for Developer documentation, like when you are building an integration or working with the Linear API. Use the ⌘ ⌥ C shortcut or the Copy page button in the top-right corner to copy page content. You can also fetch the raw Markdown by appending .md
to the URL (e.g. https://linear.app/developers/agents.md).

Project labels

Project labels
Organize projects across your workspace with project labels. Apply labels to categorize projects with custom attributes, so you can group, filter, and view them in ways that are unique to your organization. Project labels work with custom views and are available within Insights as slice and segmentation options.

Project list views now support label groups as an explicit display property, giving each group its own dedicated column.

Create and manage project labels in your workspace settings.

Asks fields and Triage routing

Asks fields
Customize your intake forms for Asks. Let users set priority, customer, or due date and allow them to upload files when submitting new Asks. Additionally, you can expose any label group as a dropdown field to help with up-front categorization.
Asks fields can be added to any existing issue template.

Triage routing
Automatically route Triage issues to the right team or assignee based on predefined rules. You can create triggers from nearly any combination of parameters including the priority, creator, template, project, due date or SLA status, then choose how the issue should be processed. Use rules to:
- Assign issues to specific members or agents
- Mark specific issues as high-priority
- Move issues to their appropriate teams
Configure Triage rules from Team settings > Triage.

When combined, Asks fields and Triage routing eliminate manual work and help you scale intake workflows. Users fill out what they know and automations send the issue to the right team or assignee.
Asks is available on business and enterprise plans. Triage routing is available on enterprise plans. To try either of these features, start an enterprise trial.

Linear for Agents

Linear for Agents
Build and deploy AI agents in Linear that work alongside you as teammates.
Agents are first-class users in Linear. Assign them to issues, add them to teams and projects, and @mention them in comments – just like any other member of your workspace. Each agent has a full user profile and is clearly identified as an app user, so you can see what they are working on and track their progress.
Today, we’re launching with a first set of agents, each designed to support a different part of the product development lifecycle:
- Devin scopes issues and drafts PRs
- ChatPRD writes requirements, manages issues, and gives feedback
- Codegen builds features, debugs issues, and answers codebase questions
For a full list of available agents, head over to our Linear for Agents page. We’ll continue adding more to our Integration Directory over time, including upcoming agents from partners like Sentry and Intercom, which will be available very soon.
In addition to deploying third-party agents, you can also build your own. Agents you create can be used privately within your own workspace or submitted to the Integration Directory to share with the broader Linear community. To get started, check out the new Agent API in our Developer Docs and join the #api-agents channel in our community Slack to connect with other developers building agents.
LLM summaries for document content changes
We now generate AI summaries for document changes, so you can quickly see what’s been updated. These summaries appear in inbox, email, and Slack notifications for document and project description changes. We automatically filter out minor changes that fix grammar, styling, or typos.

Sortable column headers
Click on a column header in any list view to re-order the list by that column. Click again on a sorted column header to update the sorting direction. This is supported on lists views such as projects, initiatives, and the members page in settings.

Custom feeds in Pulse

Custom feeds in Pulse
Create custom feeds in Pulse to focus on a targeted subset of updates. Filter recent updates by author, team, project, initiative, status, and more—then save as a personalized custom feed for future access. These custom feeds are only visible to you and not shared with others.

Projects in Google Sheets
Our Google Sheets integration now supports syncing project data in addition to issues. Projects sync to their own dedicated Google Sheet and include all key project properties like status, priority, target date, lead, customer request count, etc. Use this sheet to power external analysis and workflows.
To get started, enable the Linear Google Sheets integration from settings and toggle on Sync projects. To get an idea of how to use the synced sheet, see a basic example here.

New media players
We’ve redesigned our video player and added a new audio player to improve the media experience in Linear. Drop a video or audio file into an issue, document, or comment to try it out.
Both players support custom controls for adjusting the playback rate, changing volume, and downloading the file. Dozens of new keyboard shortcuts let you control the playback including:
- Seeking ←→ by percent 1234567890 and by frame ,.
- Volume ↑↓ and mute M
- Playback rate <>
- Fullscreen F and picture-in-picture P

Linear MCP server
Linear MCP server

Your AI models and agents can use our official MCP server to access your Linear data in a simple and secure way.
Connect to our MCP server natively as a new Claude Integration, or by using the mcp-remote
module in Cursor, Windsurf, and other clients.
We're following the authenticated remote MCP spec, so the server is centrally hosted and managed. It has tools available for finding, creating, and updating objects in Linear like issues, projects, and comments — with more functionality on the way.
We're excited to see how you and your agents use Linear data to power your workflows. If you have questions, feedback, or requests for new MCP tools, please let us know.
We want to thank our partners at Cloudflare and Anthropic for helping us get up and running. For anyone in the community looking to build their own MCP server, Cloudflare provides excellent guides and hosting options.

Customer Requests on projects

Customer Requests on projects
We recently introduced Customer Requests to allow you to bring the voice of your customer directly into your issues. Now customer requests can be added to projects as well, so you can capture product feedback and connect customer needs with your roadmap and planning processes.
Add a customer request from the project overview page and a new Customers tab will appear. In one consolidated view, you'll see requests captured at the project level as well as those related to issues within the project. Filter and sort these requests to focus on the most relevant feedback as you build features and make product decisions.

Use customer requests to align your planning process to real demand. In any project view, you can display and organize projects by customer count and revenue. To target a specific segment of customers, filter by attributes like customer size or status.

Customer subscriptions
Stay informed about the customers you care about the most. Open a specific customer page and select the bell icon to subscribe to notifications.
You can be notified when the customer submits new requests, when one of their requests is marked as important, or when any of their requested issues and projects ships. Access notifications and review requests from desktop, iOS, and Android.

Introducing Pulse — your personalized feed for what’s happening across your company

Introducing Pulse — your personalized feed for what’s happening across your company
Today, we’re launching Pulse, a new way to stay in sync with your product organization through a personalized, realtime feed of updates and discussions.
As companies grow, answering the simple question “What’s happening right now?” becomes increasingly hard. Information is spread across tools, projects, and teams, making it difficult to get a clear, high-level view.
Pulse changes that by bringing relevant updates from across your Linear workspace into a single unified feed. It’s tailored to the workstreams that are most relevant to you, and makes it easy to dive deeper into the projects, initiatives, or teams behind each update.
Tailored for you

You'll see your own personalized feed inside Pulse called "For me", showing updates from projects and initiatives you are subscribed to or a member of. "Popular" and "Recent" show updates from across your entire company, providing a broader perspective and helping you stay informed about what's happening beyond your immediate focus.
A personal AI-generated summary of updates will be delivered daily or weekly to your Linear inbox. You can read it or listen to your Daily Pulse as a short audio digest for catching-up on the go. Audio is available on desktop and iOS, with Android support coming soon.

Pulse is available today on all plans. To enable it for your workspace and change the frequency of your inbox summaries, head to Pulse settings.
Pulse extends Linear’s vision of being the source of truth for your product organization by providing information that is timely, visible, and actionable.
- IssuesWhen moving issues to private teams, we now show a warning if the assignee is not part of the new team
- NavigationSelect menus now do not jump around when being scrolled to the bottom
- SettingsWorkspace admins are now allowed to delete project and initiative updates made by other users
- ViewsThe "Show empty columns" option now respects status filters, ensuring only filtered status columns are displayed even when empty
- AsksFixed an issue where zero-point estimates in the template were not respected when creating an Ask
- DesktopFixed double-clicking in the search field no longer maximizing the window
- ListsFixed a rare crash when grouping issues by status
- Project ArchiveDisabled property controls for archived projects
- ProjectsFixed copying the URL on the project page not copying filter and view option values
- SLAsFixed how business day SLAs are calculated when set by the rule
- Removed the ability to convert a regular label into a group label by setting it as the
parentId
on another label. Group labels can only be created by passing in theisGroup: true
parameter during label creation.
New search

New search
We've completely overhauled Linear's search with a new engine built from scratch. Under the hood, we replaced the traditional keyword-based search index with a new hybrid semantic search, which combines AI vector embeddings with keyword-matching. Even if you don't use the exact phrasing from an issue title or description, the hybrid engine will infer what you mean and find the results you are looking for.
Search is also more comprehensive. When you look for an issue, for example, Linear search will pull in context from attached customer requests, comments, and linked support tickets.
New search will be rolling out to all Linear users over the coming weeks. You'll receive an in-app notification once it's available in your workspace.
Quick filters for search
Available now: quickly narrow your search by @
-mentioning teams, users, status, and other properties. This will automatically create and apply a filter to your search without your hands leaving the keyboard.

Granular permissions for API keys
Personal API keys now support fine-grained permission controls. Instead of keys inheriting all your permissions, you can tailor access to specific use cases.
- Restrict keys to individual teams you have access to (public or private)
- Set keys to read-only or write-only
- Limit permissions to specific actions such as creating issues
This is a more secure approach since it minimizes each key's access surface. Configure permissions when creating new API keys or manage existing ones in Settings > Account > Personal API Keys.
- CommentsFixed a bug that allowed posting empty comments
- CommentsWhen creating a comment in the search split screen view, it now remains in place when opening the issue in full screen

/userUnsuspend
mutations. - Added support for PKCE flow for OAuth authentication without a client secret
- Fixed updating issues that have a parent issue in a team pending deletion
Collapsed issue history

Collapsed issue history
When there’s a lot of activity in an issue, it’s easy to lose track of important changes. To reduce clutter and keep the issue activity feed focused, we now group similar consecutive events and collapse older activity between comment threads.
Sub-issue display options
Customize how sub-issues appear when viewed from parent issues. For example, update the list to only show properties relevant to you or hide completed sub-issues to focus on remaining work. Your preferences will be applied across all issues you view.

Project group order
When viewing issue lists grouped by project, customize the order in which these groups are displayed.

Mobile improvements
We've made several improvements to Linear on iOS and Android. Download the latest version from their respective app stores.
- Custom views attached to projects and teams appear as tabs, giving you quick access to your most important issues
- From a team's cycles view, easily navigate between current, upcoming, and all cycles for that team
- We've added native support for initiative updates from your Inbox. Comment or react to updates directly from the notification
