In Seed Hypermedia we do use Linear to track issues, and based on this tooling what I would love is:

get all the issues assigned to me from Linear

expand the issue and explain how to fix/solve it based on the codebase

spawn background agents for each task to solve those

create PRs when the issue is fixed.

With this setup in place, I can focus more on bigger and more complex tasks and improve the application a lot more.

What do you think? Is there something else you would do to improve this workflow?
