Weekly pull request digest in Slack
Every Monday, one Slack post with last week's merged pull requests and the ones waiting on review for too long.
Linear GitHub integration: send new GitHub issues to Linear
When someone opens an issue in your GitHub repo, a Linear issue is created in the right team with a summary, and each issue links to the other.
Using Corsair, whenever a new issue is opened in our GitHub repo acme/api, create a Linear issue in the Platform team with the same title, a one-line summary and a link to the GitHub issue. Then comment on the GitHub issue with the Linear link.
Runs on its own: when a GitHub issue is opened
How to run it
- 1
Connect GitHub and Linear in Corsair
Sign in to each app once. Corsair keeps the credentials and makes the calls, so your agent never sees a password or key.
- 2
Add Corsair's MCP server to your agent
Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Claude Code use the same address:
https://mcp.corsair.dev/mcpChatGPT personal plans get read tools only, and this prompt sets up a routine. On those plans, use Claude, Cursor or Claude Code instead.
- 3
Paste the prompt
Your agent hands it to Corsair as a routine. Corsair builds and tests it, then runs it on its own: when a GitHub issue is opened. Change the names in it (channels, repos, teams, time zone) to your own.
Why the prompt is written this way
Name the repo and the team
"acme/api" and "the Platform team" leave nothing to guess. Use your own names.
Link both ways
The comment on GitHub tells the reporter where the work is tracked; the link in Linear takes engineers back to the report.
Add your own rules
For example: "only issues labeled bug", or "set priority to urgent if the title says crash".
Tools it calls
The Corsair tools your agent uses for this job. Writes follow your link's mode: on a Strict link, each one waits for your approval.
Good to know
- Linear's built-in GitHub integration links pull requests to issues. Use this when you want your own rules for which GitHub issues become Linear work.
- It runs for repos the GitHub account you connected can read.
More use cases
Slack thread into a Linear issue
Paste a Slack thread link and get a Linear issue with a clear title, the problem in two sentences and a link back to the conversation.
Weekly Notion update from Linear
Every Friday, a new Notion page with what the team finished, started and is blocked on this week, grouped by Linear project.
Questions
Yes. "Whenever a new issue is opened" becomes a routine that starts on GitHub's issue event. Corsair receives the event and runs the steps, with no chat open.
Yes, as a one-off: ask "create Linear issues for the open GitHub issues in acme/api labeled bug" without the "whenever" part.
