Frequently asked questions

1

How do I get a Linear API key?

You can create a developer token from Linear's Workspace Settings > API > OAuth application, or a personal API key from Personal Settings > API > Personal API Keys.

2

How do I configure the extension in Zed?

Add your API key to Zed's `settings.json` under `context_servers` with the key `mcp-server-linear` and the setting `linear_api_key`. An optional `tool_prefix` can distinguish workspaces.

3

Can I use multiple Linear workspaces?

Yes, by using the optional `tool_prefix` setting to prefix all Linear tool names (e.g., `company1_linear_create_issue`) so tools from different workspaces are clearly separated.

4

How do I run multiple instances simultaneously?

Define different command blocks in `context_servers` with unique `TOOL_PREFIX` values—one provided through the Zed extension, another via `npx` with environment variables.

5

What does the tool_prefix setting do?

It prefixes every Linear tool’s name (e.g., `workspace2_linear_create_issue`) to prevent naming conflicts when operating multiple workspaces.
