Mirror Monday roadmap blockers as Linear blocking issues

When a Monday roadmap item is marked as blocked, this creates or updates a corresponding blocking relationship on the linked Linear issue so engineering sees the dependency…

How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerMonday item status changes to Blockedmonday.com
  • LogicResolve linked Linear issue IDs for item and blocker
  • ActionCreate blocked-by relation in LinearLinearLinear
  • ActionAdd blocked label and dependency commentLinearLinear
  • OutputConfirm sync in Monday item update feedmonday.com

What it does

Keeps a roadmap board and the engineering backlog in lock-step. When a planner flags a roadmap item on Monday as blocked by another item, the matching Linear issue gets a `blocks`/`blocked-by` link, a comment explaining the dependency, and a `blocked` label.

When to use it

Use it when product manages sequencing on Monday but engineers live in Linear, and blocking relationships keep getting lost in translation. It removes the manual step of re-typing dependencies into a second tool.

How it works

  1. 1A Monday status column change to "Blocked" fires the trigger with the item and its dependency column.
  2. 2A logic step reads the linked Linear issue IDs stored on both the blocked item and its blocker; if either link is missing, the run exits cleanly.
  3. 3An action calls Linear to create the `blocked-by` relation between the two issues.
  4. 4A second Linear action adds the `blocked` label and posts a comment naming the Monday item and reason.
  5. 5The output posts a one-line confirmation back to the Monday item's update feed so the planner sees the sync landed.
