Verify Linear Work Item: $ARGUMENTS

Fetch the live Linear work item and run it through lisa-linear-validate-issue. This catches any field that was dropped or reformatted between the pre-write spec and what Linear stored.

This skill is the destination of the lisa-tracker-verify shim when tracker = "linear". Read-only — never writes.

Configuration

Reads linear.workspace, linear.teamKey from .lisa.config.json (with .local override).

Input

$ARGUMENTS is a Linear identifier:

• An Issue identifier (e.g. ENG-123)
• A Project URL or slug (e.g. https://linear.app/<workspace>/project/<slug>-<id>)

If $ARGUMENTS is not parseable, stop and report.

Phase 1 — Resolve Context

1. Read linear.workspace, linear.teamKey from .lisa.config.json (with .local override).
2. Resolve team ID via lisa-linear-access operation: list-teams({query: <teamKey>}).
3. Determine entity type from the identifier shape:
   • <TEAM>-<n> → Issue
   • URL containing /project/<slug>-<id> → Project

Phase 2 — Fetch Live State

Call lisa-linear-access operation: get-issue (for Issues) or lisa-linear-access operation: get-project (for Projects). Capture every field, label, relation, comment, milestone, and project membership.

Phase 3 — Delegate to Validator

Pass the fetched item to lisa-linear-validate-issue (in identifier mode — let it derive the spec from the live state). The validator runs both Specification AND Feasibility gates against what Linear actually stored.

Phase 4 — Report

Return the validator's report verbatim — same structured format as lisa-linear-validate-issue. Callers (especially lisa-linear-write-issue Phase 7) parse the verdict to decide whether to declare success.

If the verdict is FAIL, the caller should fix the item and re-run verify. Never declare success on a FAIL verdict.

Rules

• Never write to Linear. Read-only.
• Never short-circuit the validator. Always run the full gate set.
• If get_issue / get_project returns an access error, surface it and exit — don't pretend the item is fine.
