Open Viro

    Linear

    Connect Linear and Viro can find and read your issues, and file new issues or add comments after you confirm.

    What can Viro do with Linear?

    • Show the open issues assigned to you, created by you, or that you follow
    • Show everything in one team, or search issues by words
    • Read an issue with its description, labels, and newest 20 comments
    • File a new issue in a team
    • Comment on an issue

    Viro can't:

    • Change an issue's status, assignee, priority, or project
    • Edit or delete issues and comments

    How do I connect Linear?

    1. Open Customize > Connectors

      Select Customize in the sidebar, then Connectors.

    2. Open Linear and select Connect to Viro

      Sign in to Linear and approve access.

    3. Check that it's connected

      Back in Viro, Linear is listed under Yours.

    What can I ask?

    Once it's connected, just ask in any chat. For example:

    • "What's assigned to me in Linear?"
    • "Summarize ENG-431 and its latest comments."
    • "Show everything open in the Engineering team."
    • "File an issue in Engineering: the export button does nothing on Safari."

    Does Viro post to Linear without asking?

    No. Viro shows a card with exactly what it will do, marked Needs your OK. Nothing changes until you select the card's button: Create issue or Post comment. Select Edit to change the wording first, or Cancel to drop it. Issues and comments are posted as you.

    If the card says This needs one more permission on your Linear connection, select Allow and approve the request. That happens once, the first time you make a change.

    Can Viro mark a Linear issue done?

    No. Viro can't change a Linear issue's status, and adding a comment doesn't change it either. Update the status in Linear.

    Can Viro show Linear, GitHub, and Jira issues together?

    Yes. If you also connect GitHub or Jira, Viro lists your issues from all of them together and labels where each one came from. A list shows up to 50 issues, most recently updated first.

    How do I disconnect Linear?

    In Customize > Connectors, open Linear and select Disconnect. This deletes the connection Viro stored. Your past chats aren't deleted. To remove Viro's access completely, also remove it from the authorized applications in your Linear settings.

    Is my Linear data private?

    Viro reads your Linear data only to answer what you ask. It's never used to train AI models, and Viro never sells your data.

    Frequently asked questions

    Can Viro create Linear issues?

    Yes. Viro shows the issue on a card first, and it's filed when you select Create issue. It can also add comments, but it can't change an issue's status or assignee.
