Drop the OpenAI → New event trigger onto the canvas. Tiny Command auto-registers the webhook.
POST /v1/webhooks/openai.event
3
Transform
Add a filter or AI step
Optionally add a Filter node ("subject contains URGENT") or an AI step ("classify intent") between trigger and action.
4
Action
Add the Linear action
Drop the Linear → Add Comment action below it. Map fields from the OpenAI payload into the Linear inputs.

Publish
Publish and forget
Hit Publish. Tiny Command runs it in production from second one. Watch the run-log fill up.

FAQ

Questions about OpenAI + Linear.

How does GPT triage Linear issues?

Linear Issue Created → OpenAI returns team, project, priority, estimate, labels → Linear Update Issue with the metadata + adds "ai-triaged" label.

Can GPT write technical specs from a Linear issue?

Yes. Prompt: "Expand into spec with problem, approach, alternatives, rollout plan". Save as Linear document attached to the issue. Ready for engineer review.

How do I detect duplicate Linear issues with GPT?

On Issue Created, search project for similar issues. Pass candidates to GPT with "rate similarity 0-1". Matched dupes get linked + commented with reasoning.

Can GPT generate weekly Linear status updates?

Yes. Scheduled Friday: list closed + in-progress issues for the team → OpenAI Chat with "write a weekly engineering update, group by project" → email/Slack.

How do I prevent GPT from changing fields a human already set?

Skip triage if issue has "triaged-by-ai" or "triaged-by-human" label. Or only run on issues from external sources (no human has touched them yet).

Which model for Linear automation?

gpt-4o-mini for triage and labels (fast, cheap). gpt-4o for spec-writing and status updates. Track per-issue cost from response usage for visibility.
