Sync behavior
Push
- Creating an issue in Lisa creates it in Linear
- Status changes in Lisa update Linear state
- Priority and label changes are synced
Pull
- New Linear issues appear in Lisa
- State changes in Linear update Lisa status
- Assignee and priority changes are reflected
Conflicts
When the same issue is modified in both tools between sync cycles:
- Lisa detects the conflict
- Navigate to the Sync dropdown in the sidebar
- Review conflicts and choose the preferred version
Tips
- Use Lisa for planning and issue creation — it produces richer issues
- Use Linear for day-to-day development tracking
- Conflicts are rare when teams agree on which tool owns which workflow stage
