Transition a Linear Issue

!${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/config-read-context.sh !${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/config-read-skill-context.sh transition-linear-issue

Configuration: Set work.integration: linear in .accelerator/config.md.

Move a Linear issue to a target WorkflowState via issueUpdate, resolving the state name to its team-scoped UUID from the cached catalogue — there is no live lookup. Work through the steps in order. This skill never auto-invokes.

Step 1: Parse arguments

Read the issue identifier and the target state name (both positional, e.g. /transition-linear-issue BLA-123 "In Progress").

Step 2: Preview (resolve from the catalogue)

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/integrations/linear/scripts/linear-transition-flow.sh \
  <IDENTIFIER> "<STATE-NAME>" --describe

State matching is case-insensitive and trimmed. If the name is not in the catalogue (E_TRANSITION_STATE_NOT_IN_CATALOGUE) or is shared by two states (E_TRANSITION_STATE_AMBIGUOUS), STOP and report — suggest /init-linear to refresh, or ask the user to pick an unambiguous state.

Step 3: Render the preview and confirm

Show the resolved stateId and target state under:

Proposed Linear write — review before sending

Ask:

Transition this issue? 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}/skills/integrations/linear/scripts/linear-transition-flow.sh \
  <IDENTIFIER> "<STATE-NAME>"

Confirm the new state. Suggest /show-linear-issue <IDENTIFIER> to verify.
