Pp Linear

A Linear CLI that keeps a local SQLite mirror so you can ask cross-cutting questions without waiting on API round-trips or stitching together five browser tabs. The standout commands are the rollups: cycle comparison gives you numeric diffs for retros, burndown projects landing dates from measured velocity instead of stale target dates, and at-risk surfaces which milestones have slipped by how much. The agent safety model is clever: strict trust mode refuses to touch anything the CLI didn't create itself, so you can run it against production without sweating accidental mutations. If you're an engineering manager doing Friday updates or sprint planning, this handles the questions Linear's UI makes you answer in multiple clicks.

Linear — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the linear-pp-cli binary. Do not invoke a command named linear when this skill is active. If linear-pp-cli is missing, install it first:

Install via the Printing Press installer. It defaults binaries to $HOME/.local/bin on macOS/Linux and %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\PrintingPress\bin on Windows:
```
npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install linear --cli-only
```
Verify: linear-pp-cli --version
Ensure the reported install directory is on $PATH for the agent/runtime that will invoke this skill.

If the npx install fails (no Node, offline, etc.), fall back to a direct Go install (requires Go 1.26.6 or newer):
