Recently shipped stacked pull request support in Linear Diffs and live-updating diffs during coding sessions.

Diffs now track stacks and update live.

  • Related pull requests group into a single collapsible row in Reviews, with issue and project context; move through a stack to see review, CI, and merge status at a glance.
  • For GitHub-native stacks, preview every affected PR before merging the current one and those below from Linear.
  • Diffs update in realtime through a coding session, including uncommitted changes from follow-up prompts, so you can steer the agent before or after a pull request opens.

Coding sessions gained model and environment controls.

  • Adaptive routing sends simpler tasks to a faster model while complex work stays on the default reasoning model; restart a session on the default model without losing the original pull request.
  • Sessions can read environment secrets during setup to fetch private dependencies.
  • Open-weight models are supported, starting with GLM-powered sessions; workspace admins and owners choose which models Coding sessions settings expose.

Loops grew beyond a schedule. Recurring agent workflows now trigger on initiative, project, and cycle changes — status, ownership, target dates, milestones, membership, and labels, plus new updates and comments — and can edit documents and post updates to Slack. Available on Business and Enterprise, using AI credits.

Inbox and project drafts gained agent help. The Priority tab separates notifications that need attention from those that can wait, and the project composer develops a brief with Linear Agent before a live project exists.

Linear Mobile 1.102–1.103 landed bug fixes and minor improvements.
