Answer Format

  • Present in Linear-compatible markdown
  • Use `+++Section Name\n...\n+++` for collapsible sections with detailed information
  • Include code references with file paths and line numbers
  • For @mentions, use the Linear profile URL format from `<assignee>` context (e.g. `https://linear.app/<workspace>/profiles/<username>`)
  • Be complete but concise — answer the question directly without unnecessary preamble
