Linear is a hosted issue tracking and product planning tool for software teams, with cycles, projects, roadmaps and AI agent support. One listed app does its main job and runs in your own Cloudflare account.

Each answer comes from the app’s README and source code, compared with the features Linear describes on its own site.

Issue tracker and wiki for teams working with AI coding agents, with the same operations exposed over MCP

What a Linear user would miss
It has no initiatives or roadmap view, no native Slack or GitHub integration and no Slack based intake.
What it adds
Issue leases with expiry, a per-project cap on agent-leased issues and file path claims keep several AI agents from colliding, and its MCP server exposes issues, boards, sprints and the wiki, all on one Worker in your own Cloudflare account.
