# Get It Done vs Linear

Linear positions itself as: A tool purpose-built for planning and building products with AI agents.

Every statement below is quoted from a primary source — the vendor's own docs or tracker for their product, our own published pages for ours — with the date it was last checked.

## What Linear publishes

- Linear's MCP server "provides a standardized interface that allows any compatible AI model or agent to access your Linear data". (source: https://linear.app/docs/mcp, verified 2026-09-26)
- Setup "uses OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration", and the docs also allow authenticating "with a bearer token or Linear API key". (source: https://linear.app/docs/mcp, verified 2026-09-26)
- Linear publishes a separate read-only endpoint "which only ever exposes read tools". (source: https://linear.app/docs/mcp, verified 2026-09-26)
- The docs give no tool count; they describe tools "for finding, creating, and updating objects in Linear like issues, projects, and comments". (source: https://linear.app/docs/mcp, verified 2026-09-26)

## What Get It Done does

- The GetItDone MCP server registers 11 tools, each with an explicit required scope, and the full catalog is published on one page. (source: https://nowgetitdone.com/docs/connecting-ai-assistants, verified 2026-09-03)
- get_task_video_context returns the visual content of a task — image attachments and video frames — into the assistant’s context, rather than a link the assistant cannot open. (source: https://nowgetitdone.com/docs/connecting-ai-assistants, verified 2026-09-03)

## What Get It Done does not do

- No Google Calendar sync. The integrations grid lists it as planned; the dated roadmap row says it has not been started and there is no calendar code in the product. (source: https://nowgetitdone.com/changelog#planned, verified 2026-09-05)
- Voice capture is built but gated on a transcription provider being configured, so it is off in production and the app offers typing instead. Screenshot capture ships today. (source: https://nowgetitdone.com/changelog#planned, verified 2026-09-05)
- GetItDone is not listed in the consumer connector directories, so connecting an assistant means pasting the MCP server URL from the setup guide and signing in, rather than picking it from a catalog. (source: https://nowgetitdone.com/docs/connecting-ai-assistants, verified 2026-09-26)
