Linear MCP server

Linear × ChatGPT

Use the Linear MCP server
in ChatGPT

Read and manage issues, projects, and cycles in Linear without leaving your AI. This guide connects Linear to ChatGPT (chatgpt.com) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Live-probed · Security-scanned · OAuth sign-in

Setup: Linear in ChatGPT

ChatGPT adds MCP servers via custom connectors in developer mode. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect Linear to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. Open ChatGPT → Settings → Connectors and enable Developer mode under Advanced.
  3. Click 'Create', name it 'gate', paste your gateway URL, and set authentication to OAuth.
  4. Approve the authorization — Linear is now available in your ChatGPT conversations.

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same Linear connection works in Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool Linear exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything ChatGPT did with Linear — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

Linear passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
