The gap

Stop leaving the pull request

Linear’s own GitHub integration covers links and automation. It does not paint issue context on the PR. That extra tab is the tax this extension removes.

On the PR

Everything you glance at Linear for

A compact, read-only card. No second workspace. No issue mutations. No Linear traffic through our billing service.

Parsed automatically

Finds PROJ-123 in the title, description, or branch name — including feature/eng-482-login. Multiple identifiers stack as a list.

The fields that matter

Status with a color dot, priority, estimate, project, assignee, and a deep link. Loading, empty, and error states are written in plain English.

Survives GitHub navigation

Soft navigation between PRs refreshes the panel. Five cards show first; the rest expand on demand.

Your key never leaves Chrome

Linear Personal API Key lives in chrome.storage.local. GraphQL goes straight to api.linear.app.

Sample mode

Preview the panel without a Linear account. Sample cards never write to anyone’s workspace.

Light and dark GitHub

The card follows GitHub’s color mode so it reads as part of the PR, not a sticker on top of it.

Three minutes

First success is a real PR card

The Chrome Web Store listing is not live yet, so there is no public download. Open the live demo to see the panel. After release, paste a key and open any PR that already has an identifier.

01

Install the extension

The Chrome Web Store listing is coming soon. There is no public download until it ships.

02

Paste your Linear API key

Create a Personal API Key, paste it in Options, and hit “Test connection”.

03

Open any PR with PROJ-123

A compact read-only card appears under the title with a deep link to Linear.

Simple pricing

Try the full panel. Keep it for less than a lunch.

14-day free trial. Purchase securely with Creem, our merchant of record, from the extension settings. 14-day refund window.

Monthly

$5/mo

Cancel from the Creem portal in your receipt email.

  • Full in-page panel
  • Private BYOK
  • Stops at period end if you cancel
Coming soon

Linear’s own GitHub integration covers links and automation, not an in-page panel. Checkout happens in Settings after the Store listing ships — we never see your Linear key.

Your Linear key never reaches our billing service. Linear requests go straight to Linear, never our billing service. Read-only. We never change your issues.

Frequently asked questions

Is this an official Linear or GitHub product?

No. Linear GitHub Panel is independent software. We do not use Linear or GitHub logos. Linear and GitHub are trademarks of their respective owners.

How is this different from Linear’s GitHub integration?

Linear’s own GitHub integration covers links and automation. This extension renders status, priority, estimate, project, and assignee on the pull request so you do not switch tabs to confirm context.

Where is my API key stored?

Only in chrome.storage.local on your Chrome profile. It is sent directly to Linear and never to a developer server.

Does the trial use my Google account?

Only after you click Start free trial. Chrome then issues a short-lived OpenID token (no email). We send it to our billing Worker, verify it with Google, and store only a hash of the account id.

Can the extension change my Linear issues?

No. The panel is read-only and does not run any Linear mutations.

Do I need a Linear account to try it?

For live issue data, yes — paste a Personal API Key from linear.app/settings/api. To see the UI first, enable Sample mode in Settings or open the live demo.

What if the panel disappears after a GitHub update?

Refresh the PR and confirm the extension is enabled. If it is still missing, email [email protected] with the affected PR layout so we can update the DOM adapter.

How do refunds and returns work?

This is digital software, so there is no physical return. You can request a refund within 14 days of the charge. See the Refund Policy.

How do I cancel a monthly subscription?

Open the Creem customer portal from your receipt email. Cancellation stops future renewals; access lasts until the current paid period ends. Deactivating a device in Settings does not cancel billing.

Guides

The Linear GitHub extension, in writing

Long-tail notes: why Linear’s GitHub integration is not an in-page panel, how estimate shows up on the PR, and a friendly LAGE alternative.

Review the PR. Keep the issue in view.

The extension is not available to download yet. Open the live demo. After the Store listing ships, connect a key and open a PR that already has PROJ-123 in the title.
