Example Commands

"Create a Linear issue: 'Fix login timeout on mobile' — high priority"

"What issues are in progress this week?"

"List all bugs in the backlog"

"What's the status of our current cycle?"

How It Works

When you ask Clawly to manage Linear:

  1. Workspace lookup — Finds your team and project via the Linear API
  2. Action — Creates, updates, or retrieves issues
  3. Confirmation — Returns a link or summary

Tips

  • Use issue IDs — "Update LIN-42" is faster than searching by title
  • Set a default team — Configure your primary team to avoid specifying it each time
  • Label new issues — "Create a 'Bug' issue" assigns the right label automatically
