Multi-level sub-teams

Cascading sub-teams that read: Engineering, Infra, Mobile, Android, iOS

Structure your teams in Linear to match how your organization works.

Teams can nest up to five levels deep, making it possible to represent divisions, departments, groups, squads, and more. Sub-teams inherit workflows and settings from their parents at every level, so you can maintain consistency while giving each unit flexibility in how they work.

Multi-level sub-teams are available on the Enterprise plan. Learn more in our docs.

Project and initiative comments

Projects and initiatives now support comments in their activity feed, giving teams a place for high-level discussion alongside updates. Conversations stay attached to the work itself, making it easier for both people and agents to follow and reference.

Comment thread on a project: what direction should we take for the first version, I'd go with the simpler path first and learn from real usage, Yeah we can always add depth later, but the core flow should be obvious now, Ship the simpler version first

Use comments to:

  • provide lightweight feedback that doesn’t belong in an inline comment or formal update
  • discuss open questions and resolve threads once decisions are made
  • capture meeting takeaways and mention @Linear to update docs, revise descriptions, and create issues
