MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous Linear MCP Integration Server tools

1 of Linear MCP Integration Server's 7 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control Linear MCP Integration Server

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Linear MCP Integration Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Rate limit write operations

{
  "linear_create_issue": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "linear_create_issue_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "linear_filter_sprint_issues": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "linear_filter_sprint_issues_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
