Why Linear's Agent Session beats Slack as a collaboration surface for agentic work
jeff_weinstein · x · 2026-10-03
A detailed thread argues Linear's Agent Session is a better collaboration surface for agentic work than Slack: every task is an issue with a clear description enabling precise prompts; agent prompts are separated from human comments; teammates can steer an agent running on someone else's machine (via Merlin AI); full tool-call history is viewable instead of only the latest call; and Linear charges nothing for it beyond API costs.
