Connect Linear to Trello

Automate Linear and Trello with AI

Design and ops boards in Trello while eng runs Linear is a common split. On Operator.io, an OpenClaw agent keeps cards aligned with Linear issues: a card move to done can close the linked ticket, and a new Linear issue can spawn a Trello card with the same title and due date. Create work from chat and it opens both with cross links filled in.

It reaches both apps directly or through connectors like Composio MCP and Pipedream MCP, which handle the sign in and token refresh, so there is no Zap to build and no API keys to paste.

How it works

Tell the agent what you want to happen between Linear and Trello, for example to watch one and act in the other, or to keep the two in step. It reads what it needs from Linear, works out what to do, and runs the matching action in Trello without you mapping a single field.

You can have it run once, on a schedule, or whenever something changes. Ask it for a status any time and it reads the latest from both apps back to you in the same chat.

Common questions about Linear and Trello

How do I connect Linear and Trello to Operator?
You authorize Linear and Trello once each from your Operator dashboard. Operator holds both connections and refreshes the access tokens for you, so your agent keeps working across them without you signing in again.
What can my agent do across Linear and Trello?
Tell it the job and it moves between Linear and Trello as one task, choosing which actions to run on each side. There is nothing to map and no trigger to configure; you give instructions the way you would to a person.
Can my agent keep Linear and Trello in sync?
Yes. It can watch Linear and act in Trello, or keep both in step, reading from one and running the matching update in the other. This runs on demand when you ask or on a schedule you set.
Do I need to build a workflow or write code?
No. There is no workflow to build, no fields to map, and no API keys to paste. Operator manages both connections, and you give the agent instructions in plain language.
