What Hermes Agent can do with Linear
12 Linear tools available the moment you connect. Every action is one chat message away.
linear_create_attachmentCreates a new attachment and associates it with a specific, existing Linear issue.
linear_create_comment_reactionTool to add a reaction to an existing Linear comment. Use when you want to programmatically react to a comment on an issue.
linear_create_linear_commentCreates a new comment on a specified Linear issue. This action modifies shared workspace data and is not reversible — confirm the target issue and comment content before executing.
linear_create_linear_issueCreates a new issue in a specified Linear project and team, requiring team_id and title, and allowing optional properties like description, assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date. All UUID parameters (state_id, assignee_id, cycle_id, label_ids, project_id) must belong to the same team as team_id. The created issue's id is returned in data.id — capture it for use as parent_id in sub-issues or follow-up operations. No template_id field exists; expand templates manually into title and description before calling.
linear_create_linear_issue_relationCreate a relationship between two Linear issues using the issueRelationCreate mutation. Use this to establish connections like 'blocks', 'duplicate', or 'related' between issues.
linear_create_linear_labelCreates a new label in Linear for a specified team, used to categorize and organize issues. Label names must be unique within each team. If a label with the same name already exists, the existing label will be returned. Both new and existing labels return the same object structure; check the label's `createdAt` or compare IDs to determine if creation occurred.

The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual OAuth app setup plus your own token handling, permission troubleshooting, and tool plumbing for Hermes Agent. That is fine if you want to build and maintain the integration yourself. Most teams just want Linear working from chat.
Connection flow
Manual setup
Register a Linear app, configure redirect URLs, manage consent details, and reconnect users when auth settings drift.
With ClawLink
Users connect Linear through the hosted browser flow and ClawLink keeps the token lifecycle out of your app code.
Ongoing maintenance
Manual setup
You own refresh logic, permission debugging, environment config, and every provider-specific edge case for Linear.
With ClawLink
ClawLink handles the repetitive integration plumbing so your team can focus on the workflow instead of the infrastructure.
Agent usability
Manual setup
You still need to expose the right Linear actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use.
With ClawLink
12 tools for Linear are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately.

What setup looks like for Linear
Connect linear through ClawLink's hosted Composio setup.
Linear uses hosted oauth, so users connect once in the browser and ClawLink handles the token lifecycle after that.
Hermes Agent works best when the request is concrete. Ask for a specific outcome in Linear instead of a vague "check this" instruction.
Common connection issues
Connection succeeds but no tools appear
Reconnect Linear from the dashboard, then start a fresh chat if the runtime still has the old tool catalog loaded.
The Linear account is connected but the action fails
Check whether the connected account has access to the workspace, inbox, store, or project you are trying to use. Most failures at this stage are permission mismatches, not ClawLink bugs.
OAuth finished in the browser but the account is still missing
Try reconnecting Linear and complete the consent flow in the same browser session. Partial OAuth approvals or switching accounts mid-flow can leave the connection incomplete.
