| description | Inspect the Linear SDK and generated GraphQL types before adding or changing a Linear capability in mcp-linear. Use this when you need to confirm available entities, methods, enums, or input shapes. |
Use this skill before implementing a new Linear capability.
Inspect these sources first
node_modules/@linear/sdk/dist/_generated_sdk.d.tsnode_modules/@linear/sdk/dist/_generated_documents.d.ts- existing related code in
src/services/linear-service.ts
What to verify
- Whether the capability already has an SDK method.
- The exact mutation or query variable shape.
- The entity class shape and relation getters.
- Which fields are nullable, clearable, enum-based, or paginated.
- Whether the generated SDK query looks stale for the current Linear schema.
Decision rules
- Prefer the SDK when it is correct and complete.
- If the SDK is stale, use a direct GraphQL query only for the missing path and keep it as narrow as possible.
- When you fall back to direct GraphQL, note the mismatch in code comments or the PR summary so future maintainers know why the fallback exists.
