Linear shortcuts for Mac

The most essential Linear shortcuts are Cmd+K to open the command menu for quick navigation, Space to peek into an issue, and C to create a new issue. Use G followed by a letter to navigate: GI for inbox, GM for my issues, GA for active issues, and GP for projects. Press X to select items in lists/boards, and arrow keys to move between issues.

Linear uses G-prefixed shortcuts for navigation. Press GI to go to inbox, GM for my issues, GT for triage, GA for active issues, GB for backlog, GC for cycles, GP for projects, and GS for settings. Use Cmd+K to open the command menu and type any section name to jump there instantly. Press Esc to go back one level.

Press C to create a new issue, S to change status, P to set priority, and L to modify labels. Use A to assign an issue to someone (or I to assign to yourself). For quick edits, press Alt+E to edit an issue, R to rename, and Cmd+Backspace to delete. Press Shift+C to add to a cycle and Shift+P to add to a project. Arrow keys let you move issues between columns and positions.

If Linear shortcuts aren't working, first make sure no text field is focused — press Escape to clear any active inputs. Many Linear shortcuts are context-sensitive and only work in list or board views, not while editing. Check that your browser hasn't overridden common shortcuts like Cmd+K. Try refreshing the page with Cmd+R. If issues persist, press Shift+? to open the keyboard shortcuts help panel and verify which shortcuts are active in your current view.
