Connect Linear and your agents become fluent in your team’s work: what’s in progress, what’s blocked, who owns what. They can also do the tedious part — filing well-written issues, updating status, leaving comments — with a human approving changes by default.

​
What agents can do

Reading runs freely by default; creating, updating, and commenting ask for approval. See Permissions.

​
Try asking

  • “What is the mobile team working on right now?”
  • “List everything assigned to Ana that’s still open.”
  • “Summarize ENG-123 and its current status.”
  • “Create an issue for the login timeout bug we just discussed, assign it to the platform team.” — created after approval.
  • “Move ENG-88 to In Review and add a comment linking this conversation’s summary.” — applied after approval.

Connect Linear

1

Open Integrations

In the Leme dashboard, go to Integrations and select Linear.
2

Authorize in Linear

Select Connect and approve on Linear’s consent screen. You need permission to install applications in the Linear workspace.
3

Enable it on your agents

Attach the connection to the agents that should use it and review Agent permissions.
Linear is a shared connection: one authorization serves the workspace, and agents act as the Leme app — issues and comments they create are attributed to it, so it’s always clear what an agent did.

​
Permissions

Adjust in Integrations → Linear → Agent permissions — see Permissions & approvals. Teams that let agents triage often allow issue creation while keeping updates and comments behind approval.

​
Troubleshooting

Issue keys are team-scoped (ENG-123). If the key is right, the Leme app may not have access to that team’s issues — check the app’s access in Linear’s workspace settings.
Assignees, statuses, and projects are set by ID, and the agent resolves names to IDs first. If a name is ambiguous (“two Anas”), tell the agent which one you mean.
The authorization expired or the app was revoked in Linear. Reconnect from Integrations → Linear; permissions and agent assignments are preserved.
