FAQ

Questions about Google Calendar + Linear.

How do I add Linear cycle events to my calendar?
Linear Cycle Started → Google Calendar Create Event for cycle kickoff. Schedule demo and retro on dates derived from cycle length. Team sees the engineering cadence on the shared calendar.
Can I block calendar focus time for Linear issues?
Yes. Linear Issue Assigned with estimate field → Calendar Create Event sized to the estimate, marked busy, on the assignee's calendar. Plans the week with realistic blocks.
How do I create Linear issues from calendar events?
Calendar Event Created with "[Linear]" in title → Linear Create Issue with title and description from event. Useful for capturing meeting-decided work without manual entry.
Can I update Calendar events when Linear issues change?
Yes. Linear Issue Updated → look up linked Calendar event ID stored as Linear comment or custom field → Update Event with new title or details.
How do I avoid calendar overload from per-issue events?
Only create calendar events for major milestones (cycle starts, project demos, releases). Per-issue events bury major events. Issue-level scheduling belongs in Linear, not calendar.
Can I post Linear cycle progress as a calendar event?
Yes. Daily scheduled: compute Linear cycle % complete → Calendar Update Event (an all-day "Cycle Progress" event) with the percentage in the title. Daily visual cue for the team.
