Project & Task Management
Linear + Armbrain
When the client is building something, keep that work in view. Armbrain reads Linear issues, their state and the conversation on them.
What Armbrain takes from Linear
Armbrain reads Linear issues the key can see, or one team's if you choose.
- Issue titles and descriptions.
- Each issue's state, including done and canceled.
- Comments and who wrote them.
Armbrain never creates, edits or closes Linear issues. Add a team ID to keep other teams' issues out.
