This file provides guidance to Claude Code when working with code in this repository.

Overview

This is an OpenClaw plugin that bridges Linear's native Agent Session webhooks to OpenClaw agent runs. The live architecture is runtime-centered: Linear is a conversational surface, not a plugin-hosted tool API.

Build

npm run build    # runs tsc
npm test         # builds, then runs node tests from dist/src/**/*.test.js

TypeScript sources in index.ts + src/ compile to dist/.

Architecture

Entry point (index.ts)

Registers three HTTP routes via api.registerHttpRoute:

  • POST /plugins/linear/linear — native Linear Agent Session webhook receiver
  • POST /plugins/linear/oauth/callback — OAuth callback helper
  • POST /plugins/linear/oauth/exchange — OAuth code exchange helper

No /plugins/linear/api route is registered.

Module structure

src/
  types.ts              — shared runtime interfaces
  config.ts             — normalizeCfg() for active plugin config
  util.ts               — HTTP/body/header/json helpers
  linear-client.ts      — callLinear() for all Linear GraphQL communication
  graphql/
    queries.ts          — GraphQL query strings
    mutations.ts        — GraphQL mutation strings
  runtime/
    handler.ts          — createLinearWebhook() and session turn execution
    payload.ts          — webhook normalization and trigger extraction
    prompt.ts           — chat-first/task-mode prompt shaping
    gateway.ts          — OpenClaw gateway invocation
    session-resolver.ts — comment webhook session lookup + fallback cache
    issue-policy.ts     — issue start/delegate policy on session create
    skip-filter.ts      — self-authored comment detection
    validation.ts       — HMAC-SHA256 signature verification
  oauth/
    route.ts            — OAuth callback/exchange route
    refresh.ts          — token refresh helper
    token-store.ts      — persisted OAuth token storage

Webhook flow

  1. Linear sends POST to /plugins/linear/linear.
  2. The runtime validates the signature, rejects stale payloads, and responds 202 immediately.
  3. It normalizes the native Agent Session payload and resolves the session ID for comment follow-ups when needed.
  4. It posts an immediate visible thought activity so the user sees a fast acknowledgement.
  5. It runs one OpenClaw turn against a stable session key.
  6. It publishes exactly one final Linear response or error.

Key patterns

  • callLinear() in linear-client.ts — single gateway for all Linear GraphQL calls
  • Persistent session identity — one Linear session maps to one OpenClaw session key
  • Immediate visible ack — runtime/handler.ts posts a visible thought before the agent turn completes
  • Session ID resolution — direct field first, then fallback lookup for comment webhooks
  • No plugin-side API proxy — do not reintroduce /plugins/linear/api unless the product direction changes

Configuration

Defined in openclaw.plugin.json. Active runtime options:

  • agentId / devAgentId
  • linearWebhookSecret
  • linearApiKey or OAuth credentials + linearTokenStorePath
  • openclawProvider / openclawModel / openclawThinking
  • linearDebugToolTrace
  • repoByTeam / repoByProject / defaultDir
  • delegateOnCreate / startOnCreate
  • externalUrlBase / externalUrlLabel

openclaw.plugin.json may still expose a few [legacy] compatibility fields for older installs, but the runtime ignores them. In particular, /plugins/linear/api is not part of the live runtime.
