## ⚠️ Tool Availability (READ FIRST)
**This skill supports multiple tool backends. Use whichever is available:**
1. **MCP Tools (mcp__linear)** - Use if available in your tool set
2. **Linear CLI (`linear` command)** - Always available via Bash
3. **Helper Scripts** - For complex operations
**If MCP tools are NOT available**, use the Linear CLI via Bash:
```bash
# View an issue
linear issues view ENG-123
# Create an issue
linear issues create --title "Issue title" --description "Description"
# Update issue status (get state IDs first)
linear issues update ENG-123 -s "STATE_ID"
# Add a comment
linear issues comment add ENG-123 -m "Comment text"
# List issues
linear issues list
```
**Do NOT report "MCP tools not available" as a blocker** - use CLI instead.

## 🔐 Security: Varlock Integration
**CRITICAL**: Never expose API keys in terminal output or Claude's context.
### Safe Commands (Always Use)
```bash
# Validate LINEAR_API_KEY is set (masked output)
varlock load 2>&1 | grep LINEAR
# Run commands with secrets injected
varlock run -- npx tsx scripts/query.ts "query { viewer { name } }
