About
A Linear MCP Server Extension for Zed
README
[!IMPORTANT] Linear has an official MCP Server. It is a remote server and doesn't need to be installed. See the config below. You should use that one instead.
This extension integrates (Unofficial) Linear MCP Server as a context server for Zed's Agent Panel.
Several were analyzed and this one worked the best in practice.
You'll need to grab a Linear access token for your account.
