Linear for your AI agent

Quickstart

Connect Linear to your agent in two minutes

Create your account and connect Linear with its normal sign-in page.
Open Developers and create an agent key (you can limit it to Linear).
Add the server to your client:

Claude Code · Terminal

claude mcp add --transport http vellarin https://hub.vellarin.ai/api/hub/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer <key>"

Cursor · ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or .cursor/mcp.json in a project)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vellarin": {
      "url": "https://hub.vellarin.ai/api/hub/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:VELLARIN_HUB_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Codex · ~/.codex/config.toml

[mcp_servers.vellarin]
url = "https://hub.vellarin.ai/api/hub/mcp"
bearer_token_env_var = "VELLARIN_HUB_KEY"

Questions

Linear and AI agents

How do I connect Linear to Claude Code, Cursor or Codex?

Create a free Vellarin account, connect Linear with its normal sign-in, create an agent key on the Developers page and add the Vellarin Hub MCP server to your client with one line. Your agent then sees the Linear actions as tools.

Can my agent change things in Linear without asking me?

No. Read actions run at once. Any action that sends, creates, changes or deletes something in Linear waits for the workspace owner's approval and then runs exactly once.

Does my agent get my Linear password or token?

No. The sign-in lives on the server side. Your agent holds only a Vellarin Hub key, which you can scope to Linear alone, cap per day and per month, and revoke at any moment.

What does it cost?

Hub Free includes 500 app calls a month and 1 agent key, with no card. Over the cap the answer is "upgrade or wait", never a charge.
