Linear Integration

Dexicon integrates with Linear to automatically surface relevant context when bug issues are created. When a team member creates or labels an issue as a bug, Dexicon searches your organization's knowledge base and coding sessions to find related information and posts it as a comment on the issue.

Dexicon comment on a Linear issue

Connect Linear at app.dexicon.ai/settings/connectors.

How It Works

  1. Connect your Linear workspace — Authorize Dexicon via OAuth to access your Linear workspace
  2. Configure your triggers — Choose which bug label(s) trigger the auto-search (default: "Bug")
  3. Create a bug issue — When an issue is created or labeled with your configured bug label, Dexicon automatically searches for related context
  4. Review the comment — Dexicon posts a comment with links to similar bugs and related coding sessions

Features

When a bug issue is created, Dexicon uses semantic search to find:

  • Similar bugs from your knowledge base with symptoms, root causes, and fixes
  • Related coding sessions where team members worked on similar problems

Results are posted as a comment on the Linear issue with direct links to Dexicon for deeper exploration.

AI-Generated Summary

Each comment includes a "Suggested Direction" based on the related context. The AI analyzes the similar bugs and sessions to provide actionable guidance for investigating the issue.

Configurable Scope

Fine-tune what Dexicon monitors and searches:

  • Bug labels — Specify which label(s) identify bug issues (e.g., "Bug", "Defect", "Issue")
  • Monitored teams — Limit monitoring to specific Linear teams
  • Monitored projects — Limit monitoring to specific Linear projects
  • Dexicon project scope — Limit search results to specific codebases

Setup

Requirements

  • Admin role in your Dexicon organization
  • Admin access to your Linear workspace

Connect Linear

  1. Go to Settings → Connectors
  2. Click Connect Linear
  3. Authorize Dexicon to access your Linear workspace
  4. Configure your bug label and monitoring preferences

Configure Webhook (Automatic)

When you connect Linear, Dexicon automatically sets up the webhook to receive issue events. No manual configuration is required.

Troubleshooting

Comments Not Appearing

  1. Verify the issue has a configured bug label
  2. Check that the team/project isn't excluded by your monitoring filters
  3. Review recent webhook events in Settings → Connectors → Linear

Reconnection Required

If your Linear connection shows a "Reconnect" prompt, the OAuth token has expired or been revoked. Click Reconnect to re-authorize Dexicon.

Disconnect Linear

To disconnect Linear:

  1. Go to Settings → Connectors
  2. Click on the Linear integration
  3. Click Disconnect

This revokes Dexicon's access to your Linear workspace and stops all webhook processing.
