About this announcement
Linear introduced a cloud coding agent designed to handle small fixes and prevent interruptions to planned work. According to the company, the agent writes and tests code in a secure cloud environment before returning a draft pull request for review.
Users can track the agent's progress, provide additional context, steer its approach, and review the resulting code diff directly within the Linear application.
Design ideas to consider
When introducing an automated workflow tool like a coding agent, a designer might consider using a split-screen layout to contrast the user's primary work with the agent's background tasks. This approach could visually reinforce the idea that the agent handles small fixes without interrupting the developer's main focus.
To illustrate the review process, a motion designer could build a sequence that transitions smoothly from the agent's progress state to the final pull request diff. Highlighting the specific interface elements where users can add context or steer the approach might help viewers understand how much control they retain over the automated process.
Ideas for your own video
- Contrast automated background tasks with primary user workflows to highlight time-saving benefits.
- Focus on user control mechanisms, such as review and steering features, when introducing autonomous agents.
- Use clear interface highlights to show where users interact with AI-generated outputs, like draft pull requests.
