Pithflow

Dictate Linear ticket descriptions

Linear loves keyboard shortcuts but typing ticket descriptions is still slow. Pithflow lets you speak the description while a teammate explains the bug. Hold your hotkey, talk it through, release.

How to use Pithflow in Linear

  1. 1 Open Linear, press C to create a new issue
  2. 2 Hold Ctrl + Space and dictate the description: 'When users sign in with Google OAuth, the session sometimes drops within 5 minutes. Reproducible on Chrome 140 + Windows. Appears to happen when the refresh token endpoint returns a 502...'
  3. 3 Release — full description lands in the field
  4. 4 Add the title and labels manually (short text, faster to type)

Frequently asked questions

Does it work in the Linear desktop app?

Yes, and on linear.app. Pithflow puts the text into whatever field has focus.

Will it keep code names intact?

Use the Build intent: it preserves identifiers like camelCase names and puts code in backticks.

Can I start every bug report from a template?

Yes. Save the template as a snippet, like a “steps to reproduce” list, and insert it with a short trigger phrase before you dictate the details.

Does it fill in labels or priority?

No. It writes text into the field you are in; set labels and priority as usual.
