What is the difference between standard and enterprise limits in Linear?

Standard limits typically allow 1,500 requests per minute, while Enterprise tiers offer higher quotas. This skill monitors headers to dynamically adjust to your specific tier.

Does it support bulk data processing?

Yes, it includes batch processing utilities that split large workloads into smaller, manageable chunks with configurable delays between batches.

Can this skill help with GraphQL 'Complexity exceeded' errors?

Yes, it provides patterns for query optimization, such as reducing nested connections and limiting fields, to minimize the complexity score of your GraphQL requests.

How does this skill handle Linear's 429 errors?

It implements an exponential backoff strategy with added jitter and respects the 'Retry-After' header to automatically retry failed requests at the optimal time.
