Linear MCP Server Extension for Zed

[!IMPORTANT] Linear has an official MCP Server. It is a remote server and doesn't need to be installed. See the config below. You should use that one instead.

This extension integrates (Unofficial) Linear MCP Server as a context server for Zed's Agent Panel.

Several were analyzed and this one worked the best in practice.

You'll need to grab a Linear access token for your account.
