Snyk issues in linear

At the time of writing (2025-04-01) Snyk doesn’t support syncing found issues into Linear, , only Jira so I decided to make a cli to do this automatically.

Requirements

  • Uses the snyk priorities, and maps them on to due dates based on our compliance SLAs
  • auto-close issues when Snyk detects the issue is fixed
  • unsubscribes the sync user, so they don’t get thousands of notifications
  • Caching where possible, to reduce the odds of rate limiting
  • simple to install/run (just go run from github)
  • headless-first, aka you can run it to completion in a cronjob somewhere without needing manual intervention
  • Label issues with the snyk tool, and an overarching label (all configurable) to enable clearer dashboards

Show me

All of this, and more is implemented in https://github.com/RichardoC/snyk-linear-sync so give it a go
