Linear Launches AI Agent with Skills, Automations, and Code Intelligence

· Updated

Linear Agent, Linear's new AI agent built directly into the project management platform, is now in public beta for all teams. Grounded in your workspace — roadmap, issues, and customer requests — it's available from the app, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and mobile.

As execution accelerates, Linear sees the bottleneck in product development shifting to judgment — deciding what to build and where attention belongs. Linear Agent targets that: synthesizing needs, surfacing backlog patterns, flagging risk. Its answers are workspace-specific, pulled from your actual issues and roadmap.

Save any agent conversation as a reusable skill, then trigger it via slash command or let Linear invoke it automatically. Automations (Business and Enterprise) activate the agent during triage. Code Intelligence — coming soon to the same plans — extends this into your codebase, so non-technical teammates can answer code questions without tracking down an engineer.
