| description | Run safe live smoke tests for mcp-linear against a real Linear workspace. Use this when a change needs validation beyond local unit tests and build checks. |
Use this skill for live validation of MCP tool changes.
Preconditions
- Local build and unit tests should already pass.
- Linear credentials or an existing local MCP client setup must be available.
Workflow
- Run
npm test.
- Run
npm run build.
- Choose the smallest live scenario that exercises the changed capability.
- Use temporary resource names such as
Smoke Test ... with a timestamp.
- Validate both the Linear side effect and the returned normalized payload shape.
- Delete or revert all temporary Linear resources before finishing.
Reporting
- State which live tool calls succeeded.
- State which temporary entities were created and confirm cleanup.
- If a live failure occurs, identify whether it is caused by repo code, SDK drift, or workspace/schema behavior.
