You can now edit text with Linear Agent , and use Loops to keep docs and project descriptions up-to-date. Author name indicators let you check if text was written by a colleague or added by a loop. When editing, changes you make through Linear Agent highlight separately so they’re easy to review. If you need to revert to an earlier version, restore to any previous checkpoint from version history. Show author names or open version history from the ⌘ / Ctrl + K menu, or in document display options. Learn more in our documentation . Refreshed issue sidebar The issue sidebar now closely integrates issue properties with the main content. We’ve pinned Diffs to the top of this panel so you can access the issue’s pull requests from anywhere on the page. Fixes Asks Fixed issues created through Slack Asks ignoring a chosen template’s default status Comments The resolved comments menu no longer appears when there are no resolved comments Diffs Submit review flyouts now properly close when clicking outside them GitHub Prevented revert pull requests from reopening issues linked to another GitHub repository GitHub Fixed linking GitHub pull requests to issues via pasted URLs.

To help you manage initiatives as your roadmap grows, we’ve added a new set of focused initiative properties: Proposed and canceled statuses make it clear when an initiative is under consideration or has been intentionally set aside Priority communicates which initiatives are most important Labels group initiatives by product line, region, or other meaningful categories Use these properties to group and filter initiatives on any plan, or build custom initiative views on Enterprise plans. Learn more about initiative properties in the docs . Centrally manage access to Linear’s MCP server in Claude Give employees secure access to Linear and other MCP servers in Claude, without requiring them to authenticate with each server individually. Enterprise-managed Authorization lets Okta administrators manage access and permissions centrally, and users automatically get access to the MCP servers they’re authorized to use when they sign in to Claude. Enterprise-Managed Authorization is available to Enterprise workspaces using Okta as an identity provider and Claude as an MCP client. Learn more in the docs or in the MCP specification . Share filtered views You can now share any filtered view by copying its URL from your browser, or by pressing ⌘ / Ctrl Shift C on desktop. Share filtered views to discuss a subset of an existing view with someone else — like an issue view filtered by an assignee, or project or initiative view filtered by a label.

0.25× 0.5× 0.75× 1× 1.25× 1.5× 1.75× 2× Project and initiative updates keep teams aligned, but writing them means pulling out recent changes from issues, documents, and discussions. Instead of finding that context manually, click Write with Agent to let Linear do it for you. The agent reviews changes made since the last update, checks messages in the linked Slack channel, and writes an update draft for you to refine. Add your own perspective by prompting for further changes or editing directly, then publish the update. Desktop navigation history and pinned tabs We’ve rebuilt our desktop tabs to make navigation feel fluid and predictable. Each desktop tab now has its own history stack, so moving backwards won’t navigate you to another tab Pinned tabs are now a reliable home for important work. They stay anchored in the tab bar, persist after quitting and reopening the app, and aren’t replaced by new content you open. These changes are live for current desktop users. Try Linear on desktop by downloading the app . Private sub-teams Private sub-teams organize groups that work together under one umbrella, like independent business units, skunkworks efforts, or teams handling sensitive data like People Ops. When you create a sub-team under a private team, you can now choose between two access options: Restricted to parent team members — parent team members can see and choose to join the sub-team. This makes it easy to manage private team structures without coordinating invitations to each sub-team. Private to team members — the team is hidden, except to members directly invited to that sub-team Private sub-teams are available on Business and Enterprise plans. Learn more in our documentation . Build agents with Vercel Eve Vercel Eve is an open-source framework for building custom agents. Build agents that can investigate incidents, monitor SLAs, or analyze customer feedback. You can deploy agents on Vercel with the guided setup, or host them wherever you run your Eve app. Once connected to Linear, teammates can delegate issues to your agent or mention it in comments.

Since then, we’ve added Code Intelligence to extend that understanding to the codebase, and MCP support to bring all of your context together. Today we’re closing the loop: Linear Agent can now write code using Claude Code and Codex. You can triage, plan, review, and ship—all in Linear. Start a coding session by assigning an issue to Linear, or ask it to make a change in a chat, comment, or Slack thread. Each session is grounded in your workspace context, pulling in issue details, history, customer requests, discussions, and related work. A coding agent your team will love Coding sessions run in the cloud, so you can prototype ideas and make changes without setting up a local development environment. When the change is ready, Linear returns a new diff for review. Share preview links , bring teammates into the discussion, and address feedback with further iterations in the same thread. Automate the first pass When a new issue is reported, Linear Agent can investigate and attempt a fix before it reaches an engineer, reducing the load on your team. It follows your team’s guidance, gathers evidence from tools like Sentry or Datadog through MCP, and inspects the codebase to trace the root cause before producing a fix. Linear uses this workflow internally to resolve roughly 30% of incoming bug reports, mostly on the first pass. You can set up your own agent automation in your team’s Triage settings. Availability and pricing Coding sessions are available on Basic, Business, and Enterprise plans. They require a GitHub connection with code access and use AI credits to run. Workspace admins can enable coding sessions in Settings and manage access, usage, and credits from the usage dashboard. Learn more in the docs .

Teams also need a dedicated place for the notes, docs, and shared references that support their work over time. Now, every team has a page to keep its context organized and easy to access. Teams can create documents directly from their home page, add existing documents from projects and issues, and group resources into sections. Open a team’s page by clicking on its name in your sidebar, or search by pressing o , then t . Learn more in our documentation . Shared skills for Linear Agent Skills let you save reusable instructions for Linear Agent. We now support sharing skills with your team so great personal workflows can become shared team process. Sharing a skill helps your team standardize recurring workflows like writing specs, running weekly planning, or drafting updates. Use skills in any agent conversation by clicking on Skills or using a slash command. You can share an existing skill from settings , or by asking Linear Agent. Learn more in our documentation . Issue description comments You can now comment directly on text or images in issue descriptions. Select any part of a description to leave a comment anchored to that exact spot. Use description comments to share feedback on a specific part of the description, rather than commenting on the issue as a whole. Fixes Asks The Creator in activity log copy for Slack Asks issues now always matches the creator filter. Attachments Linear now preserves the original filename (and extension) when downloading attachments whose name contains characters like middle dot ( · ) or non-breaking space. Comments Fixed synced Slack thread replies that could fail or disappear after switching threads. Comments Fixed mentioning app users in comments created through triage automations. Comments We now correctly strip leading whitespace from comment paragraphs on submit. Diffs Files marked as viewed in the Guide tab now stay collapsed when returning to the Diff tab. Diffs Fixed links in Guide jumping or over-scrolling past the target when navigating to a file or symbol. Diffs Fixed the diff horizontal scrollbar not being draggable when a collapsed unchanged-lines row was present.

Integrations Fixed Linear Agent creating a Slack channel for new projects when “Automatically create channel for new projects” was disabled. Keyboard Pressing Esc on a page opened directly in a new tab no longer wipes that page from browser history, so the browser back button can still return to it. Linear Agent Stopped the Linear agent from chiming in on later Slack thread chatter after it creates an issue/Ask. Login Login now shows a clear error instead of a false “email sent” confirmation when emails can’t be delivered to a suppressed address. Onboarding Fixed the onboarding invite step hanging on desktop after sending invites. Performance Loading icon animations are more performant and use less CPU. Projects Fixed missing icons on project milestone context menu actions. Projects Fixed missing padding around the milestones help text shown when a project has no milestones. Projects Fixed project activity showing the wrong priority change after consecutive priority updates. Pulse Fixed Pulse summaries rendering document links with a stray @ prefix instead of a proper document mention. Releases Fixed a bug that caused only partial release names to be saved. Diffs Clicking “Request review” on a draft pull request that already has requested reviewers now marks it ready for review directly. Diffs Outdated review comments are now reflected separately from resolved comments in the code review comment summary. Search Fixed exact issue identifier searches with different casing not ranking the matching issue first. Sidebar Fixed alt-clicking a team in the sidebar downloading an HTML file instead of collapsing/expanding all teams.

Slack project channels Linear no longer overwrites a connected Slack channel’s topic when a project’s description changes. Templates Fixed an error that could occur when saving templates that contained legacy invalid content. Templates Fixed issue templates intermittently losing their default project and milestone. Triage Fixed the triage automation actor name showing “Triage Behaviour” instead of “Triage Behavior”. Triage Fixed the triage responsibility settings separators appearing darker than the triage rules card. Version history Fixed the “Highlight changes” toggle disappearing when turned off in version history. Views Fixed a freeze that could occur when opening some saved issue views.

This leads to a lot of review work, and the capability and performance of traditional review tools hasn’t kept up. Today, we’re releasing Linear Diffs to make reviewing code a fast and fluid experience native to Linear. You can now review diffs from any issue with a PR, iterate on further changes with agents, and ship code from Linear. All reviews in Linear sync back to GitHub, so the current state of review work is always clear. Guided reviews (beta) Guided reviews help you efficiently review large PRs. When you view a diff in this format, you’ll see the core of change first, so you don’t have to dig for an entrypoint. Each section of diffs has an explanation — starting with what the change is, then moving into its consequences. Guided reviews separate out glue code and secondary changes so you can stay focused on what matters. This style of review makes it much easier to move through large changes in a single sitting. Guided reviews are free during beta and available for Linear customers on Business and Enterprise plans. Review Inbox Staying on top of reviews is easier when review notifications live alongside the rest of your work. Linear notifies your Inbox for work like review requests, your approved PRs, and comment mentions. You can set up additional real-time desktop, Slack, email, or mobile notifications . We’ve also added a dedicated Reviews tab in your sidebar so you can see all your review work at once. The default focus ordering sorts reviews by what’s closest to shipping, so the work that needs your attention most rises to the top. Reviewing code When a review calls for changes, keep iterating from the diff surface with a background coding agent. Agent changes update the diff in real-time, so you don’t need to check out the branch locally for every small tweak. Diffs is responsive when reviewing even very large PRs. You can view unified or split diffs, enable line wrapping and structural highlighting, and choose custom code themes. Linear Diffs is available now on all plans. Guided reviews are free during beta and available for Linear customers on Business and Enterprise plans. Workspace admins can enable Diffs by upgrading Linear’s GitHub integration for code access. Then, individual users can choose to review diffs in Linear . To learn more about why we built Diffs, read Code review should be fast . For more on Diffs functionality, check our documentation .

Now, Linear can spin up that Slack channel automatically every time a new project is created. All project members are automatically added to the project Slack channel, and project updates post to that channel by default. When working in a project’s Slack channel, you can use Linear Agent to answer questions or take actions in the project. Try sending messages to the channel like “ @Linear what’s our target date?” or “ @Linear file this bug and assign it to me.” Admins can enable channel creation from settings . Learn more about project Slack channels in our documentation . Linear Asks Agent Linear Asks brings internal requests into Linear, where the appropriate team can work on them. Now, anyone in your Slack workspace can file a request in Linear by mentioning @Linear Asks . Linear checks the templates enabled for that channel, picks the best match, and creates an issue using the conversation as context. When a template uses required fields, Linear follows up to collect any missing details before creating the issue. Admins can configure Linear Asks agent in settings for any connected Slack workspace. Asks is available on Business and Enterprise plans. Learn more in our documentation . Issue duplicates Duplicate issues now use a dedicated status type in Linear and move context to the original issue. When an issue is marked as a duplicate, its customer requests, synced Slack threads, and attachments are moved to the original issue. Whether a teammate, agent or Triage Intelligence marks an issue as a duplicate, the issue context moves to the right place. Because of theses changes, every issue with a duplicate status must now link to the original issue. On duplicate issues, that original issue is shown clearly in the sidebar. When the original issue is completed, every synced Slack thread is notified. Each linked customer ticket in Zendesk or Intercom also reopens, so you can keep your customers in the loop. Reorder groups in issue and project views Issues and projects in views are often organized into groups like status, priority, or label. You can now reorder these groups in any list or board view to put the most important sections first. Click the reorder groups icon in display options, then drag groups into your preferred order. You can reset the view back to the default order at any time. GitHub Enterprise Cloud integration Linear now supports GitHub Enterprise Cloud. Once connected, GitHub Enterprise Cloud users have access to all the benefits of our popular GitHub integration. Linked pull requests update issue statuses automatically, GitHub Issues sync can be enabled for select repos, and you can review PRs natively with Linear Diffs. This integration is available on Linear’s Enterprise plan. Read more in our documentation , and install the GitHub Enterprise Cloud integration to get started.

With Code Intelligence, Linear Agent can reason about how your product actually works, not just what’s captured in issues, projects, and docs. Ask how a feature is implemented, why something behaves a certain way, what a change might affect, or which technical constraints should shape a plan or customer request without digging through the codebase or interrupting an engineer. PMs can write sharper specs, Support and Sales can answer technical questions with more confidence, and Engineering can investigate bugs, regressions, and unfamiliar parts of the system faster. To set up Code Intelligence, a workspace admin should: Install the GitHub integration and enable code access Turn on Code Intelligence in AI Settings From there, admins can choose which repositories to include and whether access is limited to members with existing GitHub permissions or available to the entire workspace. Code Intelligence is now available in public beta for Business and Enterprise plans, and free to use during the beta period. See the docs for more details.

Linear Releases integrates with your CI/CD tools to precisely track the deployment environment, version, and status of every issue, giving team members and agents your full deployment context. Issue statuses automatically update when their associated code changes land in production. See what’s live to customers, not just what’s been merged. Write release notes for a single release or for a range of releases. Generate release notes with Linear Agent based on included issues.

To help you manage initiatives as your roadmap grows, we’ve added a new set of focused initiative properties: Proposed and canceled statuses make it clear when an initiative is under consideration or has been intentionally set aside Priority communicates which initiatives are most important Labels group initiatives by product line, region, or other meaningful categories Use these properties to group and filter initiatives on any plan, or build custom initiative views on Enterprise plans. Learn more about initiative properties in the docs . Centrally manage access to Linear’s MCP server in Claude Give employees secure access to Linear and other MCP servers in Claude, without requiring them to authenticate with each server individually. Enterprise-managed Authorization lets Okta administrators manage access and permissions centrally, and users automatically get access to the MCP servers they’re authorized to use when they sign in to Claude. Enterprise-Managed Authorization is available to Enterprise workspaces using Okta as an identity provider and Claude as an MCP client. Learn more in the docs or in the MCP specification . Share filtered views You can now share any filtered view by copying its URL from your browser, or by pressing ⌘ / Ctrl Shift C on desktop.

Instead of finding that context manually, click Write with Agent to let Linear do it for you. The agent reviews changes made since the last update, checks messages in the linked Slack channel, and writes an update draft for you to refine. Add your own perspective by prompting for further changes or editing directly, then publish the update. Desktop navigation history and pinned tabs We’ve rebuilt our desktop tabs to make navigation feel fluid and predictable. Each desktop tab now has its own history stack, so moving backwards won’t navigate you to another tab Pinned tabs are now a reliable home for important work. They stay anchored in the tab bar, persist after quitting and reopening the app, and aren’t replaced by new content you open. These changes are live for current desktop users. Try Linear on desktop by downloading the app . Private sub-teams Private sub-teams organize groups that work together under one umbrella, like independent business units, skunkworks efforts, or teams handling sensitive data like People Ops. When you create a sub-team under a private team, you can now choose between two access options: Restricted to parent team members — parent team members can see and choose to join the sub-team. This makes it easy to manage private team structures without coordinating invitations to each sub-team. Private to team members — the team is hidden, except to members directly invited to that sub-team Private sub-teams are available on Business and Enterprise plans. Learn more in our documentation . Build agents with Vercel Eve Vercel Eve is an open-source framework for building custom agents. Build agents that can investigate incidents, monitor SLAs, or analyze customer feedback.

Since then, we’ve added Code Intelligence to extend that understanding to the codebase, and MCP support to bring all of your context together. Today we’re closing the loop: Linear Agent can now write code using Claude Code and Codex. You can triage, plan, review, and ship—all in Linear. Start a coding session by assigning an issue to Linear, or ask it to make a change in a chat, comment, or Slack thread. Each session is grounded in your workspace context, pulling in issue details, history, customer requests, discussions, and related work. A coding agent your team will love Coding sessions run in the cloud, so you can prototype ideas and make changes without setting up a local development environment. When the change is ready, Linear returns a new diff for review. Share preview links , bring teammates into the discussion, and address feedback with further iterations in the same thread. Automate the first pass When a new issue is reported, Linear Agent can investigate and attempt a fix before it reaches an engineer, reducing the load on your team. It follows your team’s guidance, gathers evidence from tools like Sentry or Datadog through MCP, and inspects the codebase to trace the root cause before producing a fix. Linear uses this workflow internally to resolve roughly 30% of incoming bug reports, mostly on the first pass. You can set up your own agent automation in your team’s Triage settings. Availability and pricing Coding sessions are available on Basic, Business, and Enterprise plans. They require a GitHub connection with code access and use AI credits to run. Workspace admins can enable coding sessions in Settings and manage access, usage, and credits from the usage dashboard. Learn more in the docs .

Teams also need a dedicated place for the notes, docs, and shared references that support their work over time. Now, every team has a page to keep its context organized and easy to access. Teams can create documents directly from their home page, add existing documents from projects and issues, and group resources into sections. Open a team’s page by clicking on its name in your sidebar, or search by pressing o , then t . Learn more in our documentation . Shared skills for Linear Agent Skills let you save reusable instructions for Linear Agent. We now support sharing skills with your team so great personal workflows can become shared team process. Sharing a skill helps your team standardize recurring workflows like writing specs, running weekly planning, or drafting updates. Use skills in any agent conversation by clicking on Skills or using a slash command. You can share an existing skill from settings , or by asking Linear Agent. Learn more in our documentation . Issue description comments You can now comment directly on text or images in issue descriptions. Select any part of a description to leave a comment anchored to that exact spot. Use description comments to share feedback on a specific part of the description, rather than commenting on the issue as a whole. Fixes Asks The Creator in activity log copy for Slack Asks issues now always matches the creator filter. Attachments Linear now preserves the original filename (and extension) when downloading attachments whose name contains characters like middle dot ( · ) or non-breaking space. Comments Fixed synced Slack thread replies that could fail or disappear after switching threads. Comments Fixed mentioning app users in comments created through triage automations. Comments We now correctly strip leading whitespace from comment paragraphs on submit. Diffs Files marked as viewed in the Guide tab now stay collapsed when returning to the Diff tab. Diffs Fixed links in Guide jumping or over-scrolling past the target when navigating to a file or symbol. Diffs Fixed the diff horizontal scrollbar not being draggable when a collapsed unchanged-lines row was present. Diffs Fixed Guide showing large blocks of unchanged code when an LLM-supplied hide directive sat adjacent to a long unchanged stretch. Documents Capped the document table of contents markers height, showing only top-level headings when there are too many to fit. Documents Fixed a previously open document staying selected after creating a new document in side-by-side view. Display options Toggling a display option back to its default now correctly clears the modified indicator on the Display button. Editor Fixed portrait videos being clamped when going fullscreen. Figma Fixed Figma links in comments triggering repeated comment update errors and slow issue loads. GitHub GitHub backlink comments are now posted for issues that reference a GitHub URL even when the target repo isn’t synced to a Linear team, as long as the GitHub install can access it. GitHub We now correctly handle null GitHub ghost users across webhook, issue sync, and pull request intake paths. GitHub Fixed GitHub issue sync failing with a 401 “A JSON web token could not be decoded” error in some GitHub Enterprise Cloud workspaces. Google Sheets Fixed a Google Sheets export failure caused by large issue batches overflowing the call stack. Inbox Returning to Inbox no longer scrolls to a previously-viewed notification without selecting it. Insights Fixed incorrect Insights results when using “Time in status” after an issue status was renamed. Integrations Fixed Linear Agent creating a Slack channel for new projects when “Automatically create channel for new projects” was disabled. Keyboard Pressing Esc on a page opened directly in a new tab no longer wipes that page from browser history, so the browser back button can still return to it. Linear Agent Stopped the Linear agent from chiming in on later Slack thread chatter after it creates an issue/Ask. Login Login now shows a clear error instead of a false “email sent” confirmation when emails can’t be delivered to a suppressed address. Onboarding Fixed the onboarding invite step hanging on desktop after sending invites. Performance Loading icon animations are more performant and use less CPU. Projects Fixed missing icons on project milestone context menu actions. Projects Fixed missing padding around the milestones help text shown when a project has no milestones. Projects Fixed project activity showing the wrong priority change after consecutive priority updates. Pulse Fixed Pulse summaries rendering document links with a stray @ prefix instead of a proper document mention. Releases Fixed a bug that caused only partial release names to be saved. Diffs Clicking “Request review” on a draft pull request that already has requested reviewers now marks it ready for review directly. Diffs Outdated review comments are now reflected separately from resolved comments in the code review comment summary. Search Fixed exact issue identifier searches with different casing not ranking the matching issue first. Sidebar Fixed alt-clicking a team in the sidebar downloading an HTML file instead of collapsing/expanding all teams. Sidebar Fixed the “Exploring” sidebar section dropping a team when navigating to its documents tab. Sidebar Sidebar nav item hover state changes are now instant. Slack project channels Linear no longer overwrites a connected Slack channel’s topic when a project’s description changes. Templates Fixed an error that could occur when saving templates that contained legacy invalid content. Templates Fixed issue templates intermittently losing their default project and milestone. Triage Fixed the triage automation actor name showing “Triage Behaviour” instead of “Triage Behavior”. Triage Fixed the triage responsibility settings separators appearing darker than the triage rules card. Version history Fixed the “Highlight changes” toggle disappearing when turned off in version history. Views Fixed a freeze that could occur when opening some saved issue views. Improvements Agents Added an Error option to the agent session issue filter and insights grouping. Diffs You can now paste a GitHub pull request link into command menu to open it in Linear. Diffs Customers on legacy plans can now use Diffs. Diffs We now show indentation changes in diffs for more whitespace-sensitive languages (CoffeeScript, Elm, F#, HAML, Haskell, LiveScript, MoonScript, Nim, Stylus, Makefile). Editor We now support right-clicking an issue mention in a doc or editor to change its properties. Editor We now treat ) and ( as emoji autocomplete aliases for standard smile and sad results. May 28, 2026 Linear Diffs Elapsed 00:00 Seek to: 00:00 / Duration 00:00 Remaining − 00:00 0.25× 0.5× 0.75× 1× 1.25× 1.5× 1.75× 2× Agents generate large volumes of code, but individuals are still accountable for the changes that merge. This leads to a lot of review work, and the capability and performance of traditional review tools hasn’t kept up. Today, we’re releasing Linear Diffs to make reviewing code a fast and fluid experience native to Linear. You can now review diffs from any issue with a PR, iterate on further changes with agents, and ship code from Linear. All reviews in Linear sync back to GitHub, so the current state of review work is always clear. Guided reviews (beta) Guided reviews help you efficiently review large PRs. When you view a diff in this format, you’ll see the core of change first, so you don’t have to dig for an entrypoint. Each section of diffs has an explanation — starting with what the change is, then moving into its consequences. Guided reviews separate out glue code and secondary changes so you can stay focused on what matters. This style of review makes it much easier to move through large changes in a single sitting. Guided reviews are free during beta and available for Linear customers on Business and Enterprise plans. Review Inbox Staying on top of reviews is easier when review notifications live alongside the rest of your work. Linear notifies your Inbox for work like review requests, your approved PRs, and comment mentions. You can set up additional real-time desktop, Slack, email, or mobile notifications . We’ve also added a dedicated Reviews tab in your sidebar so you can see all your review work at once. The default focus ordering sorts reviews by what’s closest to shipping, so the work that needs your attention most rises to the top. Reviewing code When a review calls for changes, keep iterating from the diff surface with a background coding agent. Agent changes update the diff in real-time, so you don’t need to check out the branch locally for every small tweak. Diffs is responsive when reviewing even very large PRs. You can view unified or split diffs, enable line wrapping and structural highlighting, and choose custom code themes. Linear Diffs is available now on all plans. Guided reviews are free during beta and available for Linear customers on Business and Enterprise plans. Workspace admins can enable Diffs by upgrading Linear’s GitHub integration for code access. Then, individual users can choose to review diffs in Linear . To learn more about why we built Diffs, read Code review should be fast . For more on Diffs functionality, check our documentation .

Now, Linear can spin up that Slack channel automatically every time a new project is created. All project members are automatically added to the project Slack channel, and project updates post to that channel by default. When working in a project’s Slack channel, you can use Linear Agent to answer questions or take actions in the project. Try sending messages to the channel like “ @Linear what’s our target date?” or “ @Linear file this bug and assign it to me.” Admins can enable channel creation from settings . Learn more about project Slack channels in our documentation . Linear Asks Agent Linear Asks brings internal requests into Linear, where the appropriate team can work on them. Now, anyone in your Slack workspace can file a request in Linear by mentioning @Linear Asks . Linear checks the templates enabled for that channel, picks the best match, and creates an issue using the conversation as context. When a template uses required fields, Linear follows up to collect any missing details before creating the issue. Admins can configure Linear Asks agent in settings for any connected Slack workspace. Asks is available on Business and Enterprise plans. Learn more in our documentation . Issue duplicates Duplicate issues now use a dedicated status type in Linear and move context to the original issue. When an issue is marked as a duplicate, its customer requests, synced Slack threads, and attachments are moved to the original issue. Whether a teammate, agent or Triage Intelligence marks an issue as a duplicate, the issue context moves to the right place. Because of theses changes, every issue with a duplicate status must now link to the original issue. On duplicate issues, that original issue is shown clearly in the sidebar. When the original issue is completed, every synced Slack thread is notified. Each linked customer ticket in Zendesk or Intercom also reopens, so you can keep your customers in the loop. Reorder groups in issue and project views Issues and projects in views are often organized into groups like status, priority, or label. You can now reorder these groups in any list or board view to put the most important sections first. Click the reorder groups icon in display options, then drag groups into your preferred order. You can reset the view back to the default order at any time. GitHub Enterprise Cloud integration Linear now supports GitHub Enterprise Cloud. Once connected, GitHub Enterprise Cloud users have access to all the benefits of our popular GitHub integration. Linked pull requests update issue statuses automatically, GitHub Issues sync can be enabled for select repos, and you can review PRs natively with Linear Diffs. This integration is available on Linear’s Enterprise plan. Read more in our documentation , and install the GitHub Enterprise Cloud integration to get started. Fixes Agent chat Fixed highlights on the agent chat buttons Agents Issues created from templates via the Linear agent (in-app, Slack, Microsoft Teams) now respect required form fields and serialize submitted values into the issue description Agents Fixed a freeze when pasting long Markdown content that included todo items into agent toolbar input Asks Fixed Asks Web template submissions that create child issues for authenticated non-members Cycles Fixed progress ring background blending into the row hover color in quick filter overviews Drafts Fixed a bug where saving as draft would fail when an issue template included a sub-issue on a sub-team Duplicates Duplicate issues now appear in the canceled section in focus-grouped issue lists instead of active buckets Editor Copying part of the text of a list item no longer copies the list structure, only the text itself Editor When pasting Markdown content that includes code blocks, the cursor now lands correctly at the end of the pasted content Filters Fixed missing rows on Author, Reviewers, Team owners, Customer owner, and Project milestone filters on first open Filters Fixed missing rows on Creator filter on search page Filters Fixed header filter buttons highlighted while their filter menu is open Labels Restored input focus when switching between New group and New label while creating a label Linear Agent Fixed resuming Slack threads when the user answers an agent’s follow-up question without @Linear , even after a long delay Notifications Fixed an issue where users could be unexpectedly subscribed to issues they never interacted with Performance Fixed an issue where switching workspaces could leave the app stuck on the workspace loading screen until a restart Projects Fixed public project Slack channels incorrectly appearing as private after renames Releases Fixed order of releases by stage position so canceled releases are sorted after completed ones Reviews Showed only the relative timestamp for opened pull requests in the review list Settings Fixed dropdown text overflowing on narrow viewports Slack Fixed double-notifying on Slack when an issue is deduplicated — the duplicate-relation event is now the only user-facing event Sidebar Reduced blur and fixed positioning in animated unread count digits on non-retina displays Teams Fixed issue where team owners can now update the “Restrict team membership” setting without needing workspace admin permissions Templates Fixed moving a project or document template to the parent team or workspace silently reverting Updates Switching the project or initiative on an update composer no longer deletes the previously saved draft Workflow Show the visible workflow-state icon for merged issue status group headers, with a generic fallback when multiple team states are visible API Added parallel AgentSkill GraphQL query and mutation types alongside deprecated AiPrompt roots for the skill migration Added Team.visibility and deprecated Team.private Returns 410 Gone from /oauth/migrate_old_token ; old OAuth token migration is no longer supported Improvements Inbox Grouped agent-authored inbox replies into a dedicated Agents section in focus inbox grouping Issues You can now link the same pull request to multiple selected issues from issue actions and Cmd/CtrlK Reviews Unreviewed stacked PRs are now ranked below reviewed PRs in the list Triage Improved triage actions in the issue header now show labels at wider widths MCP server GitHub pull request URLs in document content saved via MCP are now converted to diff mentions May 14, 2026 Code Intelligence Elapsed 00:00 Seek to: 00:00 / Duration 00:00 Remaining − 00:00 0.25× 0.5× 0.75× 1× 1.25× 1.5× 1.75× 2× Code Intelligence gives Linear Agent controlled access to your codebase, turning repositories into shared product context your whole team can use. With Code Intelligence, Linear Agent can reason about how your product actually works, not just what’s captured in issues, projects, and docs. Ask how a feature is implemented, why something behaves a certain way, what a change might affect, or which technical constraints should shape a plan or customer request without digging through the codebase or interrupting an engineer. PMs can write sharper specs, Support and Sales can answer technical questions with more confidence, and Engineering can investigate bugs, regressions, and unfamiliar parts of the system faster. To set up Code Intelligence, a workspace admin should: Install the GitHub integration and enable code access Turn on Code Intelligence in AI Settings From there, admins can choose which repositories to include and whether access is limited to members with existing GitHub permissions or available to the entire workspace. Code Intelligence is now available in public beta for Business and Enterprise plans, and free to use during the beta period. See the docs for more details.
