Linear Connection Smoke Test

Verify a Linear connection and prove usable read access with a bounded issue search.

Required Aident Actions

• <action-tag>composio:linear_tools:linear_validate_credential</action-tag> (required inputs: inspect the current schema): Validates the Linear API credentials by checking if the authentication token can successfully query the current user. Use this action when you need to verify that API credentials are valid before performing other...
• <action-tag>composio:linear_tools:linear_search_issues</action-tag> (required inputs: query): Search Linear issues using full-text search across identifier, title, and description. Use when you need to find issues by keywords or specific identifiers. Note: This endpoint only supports full-text search; for...

Use Aident Loadout to read the current Action schema before constrAction · Validate Credential If an Action is billable or mutating, run Aident preflight, show the affected target and quoted cost or risk, and wait for explicit user confirmation before execution.

Workflow

1. Confirm the requested outcome, source material, destination, audience, constrainAction · Search Issueselow to create a concrete plan. Resolve ambiguity before invoking an Action.
2. Select only the Aident Actions whose documented effect directly advances the requested outcome. Do not invoke every listed Action by default.
3. Inspect the current schema and prepare the minimum valid input for each selected Action.
4. Preflight each selected Action. Execute it only after any required confirmation, in dependency order, and carry returned IDs or asset URLs into later steps.
5. Verify the returned IDs, URLs, statuses, or artifacts against the acceptance criteria. Report partial completion precisely and do not repeat paid or mutating calls blindly.

Source-Derived Guidance

• Validate the connected identity before querying workspace data.
• Run a user-supplied or harmless bounded query and report permission-scoped results without mutating Linear.

Execution Boundaries

• Treat upstream provider-specific commands as background knowledge only. Execute the workflow through the exact Aident Actions above.
• Never request raw credentials in chat. Use Aident Vault connection flows for required accounts.
• Preserve user-provided wording, brand constraints, rights restrictions, and target identifiers. Do not invent authorization.
• Read current state before a mutation, state the exact target, and include a rollback or recovery step in the result.
• Stop when a required integration is disconnected, preflight rejects the input, the target is ambiguous, or the user declines a required confirmation.

Output

Return the execution plan, selected Action names, confirmed targets, Aident result identifiers or asset URLs, verification evidence, and any remaining blocked step.
