Chat command to link a Linear epic to a Monday roadmap item

An operator describes an epic and a roadmap item in chat; the agent finds both, validates them, writes the cross-reference IDs into each tool, and confirms the link.

How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerChat request to link epic and item
  • ActionSearch Linear for the epicLinearLinear
  • ActionSearch Monday for the itemmonday.com
  • LogicVerify neither is already linked
  • ActionWrite cross-reference IDs both waysLinearLinear
  • OutputConfirm the link in chat

What it does

Bootstraps the relationship that every other roadmap-sync workflow depends on. Instead of manually copying IDs between tools, an operator asks in chat to connect a specific Linear epic to a specific Monday item, and the agent resolves both records and wires the bidirectional reference.

When to use it

Use it when onboarding existing work into automated sync, or any time a new epic and roadmap item need pairing. It is the setup step before the create/update, date-slip, and audit workflows can match records.

How it works

  1. 1A chat trigger receives a request naming an epic and a roadmap item by title or URL.
  2. 2The agent searches Linear for the epic and Monday for the item, disambiguating with the operator if either is ambiguous.
  3. 3A logic check confirms neither record is already linked to a different counterpart, preventing crossed wires.
  4. 4The agent writes the Monday item ID onto the Linear epic and the Linear epic ID into the Monday item's reference column.
  5. 5It replies in chat confirming the link with both URLs so the operator can verify.
