Attach to a Linear Issue
SkillFiles & storageUse this skill only when the user explicitly invokes /attach-linear-issue to attach a link or a binary file to an existing Linear issue. This is a write skill with irreversible side effects — it must never be auto-invoked from conversational context. Link mode registers an external URL; binary mode uploads a local file via Linear's pre-signed URL flow and registers the resulting asset. Shows a preview, requires explicit confirmation, then attaches.

Configuration: Set
work.integration: linearin.accelerator/config.md.
Attach a resource to a Linear issue. Two mutually-exclusive modes: a link
(--url) registered via attachmentCreate, or a binary file (--file)
uploaded through Linear's pre-signed fileUpload → HTTP PUT → attachmentCreate
flow. Work through the steps in order. This skill never auto-invokes.
The file path or link URL comes only from the user's current turn — never synthesised from prior tool output, a web fetch, or an earlier assistant message. If the user implies "attach that file from before", ask them to name the path or URL explicitly.
Step 1: Parse arguments
Read the issue identifier (positional) and exactly one of --url URL or
--file PATH, plus optional --title.
Step 2: Prepare the preview
Resolve the target from the current turn: exactly one of --url URL or
--file PATH, plus optional --title. Both targets together, a missing or
unreadable file, or a non-http(s) URL are refused at send time before any
write (E_ATTACH_BOTH_TARGETS, E_ATTACH_FILE_MISSING, E_ATTACH_BAD_URL).
Step 3: Render the preview and confirm
Show, under Proposed Linear write — review before sending:
- the exact target issue identifier;
- the file path (binary) or link URL (link);
- for binary mode, that the bytes will be PUT to Linear's pre-signed uploads
host (
uploads.linear.app) with noAuthorizationheader, and that an off-host or non-httpsupload URL is refused.
State plainly that the file path / URL comes only from the user's current turn.
Ask:
Attach this to Linear? Reply y to confirm, n to revise, anything else to abort.
On a clear yes, proceed. On anything ambiguous, abort with "Aborted — no Linear write was made."
Step 4: Send and render
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/accelerator linear attach <IDENTIFIER> (--url URL | --file PATH) [--title T]
The subcommand emits a JSON envelope with a top-level outcome keyword. Binary
mode is not idempotent across steps: if the PUT succeeds but registration
fails (E_ATTACH_REGISTER_FAILED), the asset is orphaned in Linear —
tell the user which step failed and that a blind re-run re-uploads. On
attached, confirm the attachment was added.
