# Link a GitHub Issue + Linear Ticket on a PR

Appends a Sentry-style `#### Issues` block to a PR description, referencing both the GitHub issue and the Linear ticket pulled from the issue's `linear-linkback` comment.

## Inputs

- `<issue-url>` — GitHub issue URL like `https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/issues/<n>`. Issue number alone is fine if the PR is in the same repo.
- (optional) `<pr-number>` — defaults to the open PR for the current branch.

## Steps

1. **Resolve the PR number** — skip if user supplied one:

   ```bash
   gh pr view --json number,body -q '.number'
   ```

   If no PR exists on the branch, stop and tell the user.

2. Extract issue number + repo from the input URL, or accept a bare `#1234` for current repo.

3. Fetch the Linear ticket from the issue's linear-linkback comment:

   ```bash
   gh issue view <n> --repo <owner>/<repo> --json comments \
     -q '.comments[] | select(.author.login=="linear-code") | .body' \
