Linear integration for multiplayer collaboration with AI agents using Claude Code or Codex

One governed connection your whole team and its AI agents can share, with approved actions and human review, so working in Linear never means pasting credentials into a prompt.

Use Linear from Claude Code

Bring Linear context into engineering work while Type keeps app access attached to the teammate and workspace.

Automate Linear with Codex

Let coding agents ask for the right app action, preserve conversation context, and keep humans in the approval loop.

Connect open agent workflows

Use Type as the collaboration layer around OpenClaw and other LLM workflows that need app access.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Linear

Can Claude Code use Linear?

Yes. Type lets an AI teammate use connected Linear actions from a governed workspace context, so Claude Code work can reference the app without copying credentials into a local prompt.

Can Codex work with Linear through Type?

Yes. Codex can collaborate through Type with app context, skills, and approved actions. The Linear catalog entry includes public integration details and example capabilities where available.

Is this the same as a Linear MCP server?

Type exposes connected app capabilities to AI teammates and coding agents through Type's integration layer. Teams use it when they want shared app access, human review, and teammate-level permissions around agent work.
