Linear MCP ServerUnclaimed

Linear is a project and issue tracker for teams. Its MCP server, the Model Context Protocol server, gives AI models and agents a standardised, secure way to read and work with your Linear data. The MCP server is centrally hosted and provides tools for finding, creating and updating objects such as issues, projects and comments.

The server is for teams that already use Linear and want their AI clients to work with it. Linear's documentation lists setup steps for Claude, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, fx, Visual Studio Code, v0 by Vercel, Windsurf and Zed, and gives general instructions for other MCP-compatible tools.

Setup uses OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration, so you sign in with your Linear account in the browser. Bearer tokens or Linear API keys are also supported. Read-write access is the default at mcp.linear.app/mcp. For read-only access, you can connect to the /mcp/readonly endpoint or request only the read scope.

The documentation includes example prompts for roadmap planning, standup note updates, incoming bug investigation, cycle summaries and timelines. Each one asks the AI to show proposed changes before it writes anything to Linear.

Linear offers a free plan and paid plans. Customers are billed per unsuspended user in a workspace, on a monthly or yearly basis, and the Enterprise plan is yearly only. Users added or suspended during a yearly subscription are adjusted with pro-rated charges or credits. The page does not state a dollar price, so the pricing reference is Linear's pricing page.
