Yes, I still use it, although less than I would otherwise.

Good: - Composer 2.5 is pretty decent for the quality / price ratio. - Easy to assign an issue to it in Linear (I know Linear just added this natively for linear agent, but it seems rubbish compared to Cursor) - Bugbot actually finds some useful issues (things Claude and Codex will miss) - Using @cursor in github usually works well, and better than @copilot. - Working with Python Monorepos with UV in their IDE. VSCode and Cursor work well here (Antigravity managed to screw it up somehow).

The Bad: - Usage/billing dashboards - These are are opaque and you can't attribute what actions map to what spend. - cursor won't follow PRs well like Claude Codes does. - Setting up environments is less good than Claude Code - Their IDE fork is woefully out of date, it'd be nice if it had more of the codeium fixes.

The Ugly: - Settings - Try to turn off bugbot, there's multiple places you have to do it. Good luck figuring them all out. - Support - they are polite, but gas light you and tell you it's your fault their product's settings are awful.

Linear employee here - if you have any specific feedback on our Claude/Codex integration, happy to hear it. Definitely a v1 so expect a number of fast follows up with some of the missing functionality like env customization, secrets, and code signing.

Cheers!

Cool.

I was speaking more on the linear agent vs the existing integrations. We love the linear guided reviews and issue tracking so have high hopes on getting a good DX here from y'all.

The claude integration - works as well as anthropic will let it work, since you can either automate it (anywhere from 'claude -p xxxx' or the api and ignore your subscription and pay by the token, or open a crapton of tabs with the terminal, or paste it into a bunch of sessions in their app. Which works more-or-less but it's cheaper than per-token costs.

The linear agent, doesn't seem to read the AGENTS.md file, follow along on a PR nor nor let you configure a sandbox (it told me this:

``` Note: I couldn't run ruff/pytest here (no uv/venv in the sandbox), so I verified syntax via AST parse only. The Postgres-backed tests will run in CI. ``` After I asked it to look at the PR check failures.

To be fair, claude code does it 70% of the time (the other 30% the sandbox is dead), and cursor about 10% of the time.
