Linear Pagination + Filtering
This skill should be used when fetching large result sets from Linear — cursor pagination, filter DSL, sorting, and complexity budgeting. Activates on "linear pagination", "linear filter", "linear cursor", "linear filtering".

# Linear Pagination + Filtering

## Cursor pagination
Linear uses opaque forward cursors. Pattern:
```graphql
query Page($cursor: String, $filter: IssueFilter) {
issues(first: 50, after: $cursor, filter: $filter, orderBy: updatedAt) {
pageInfo { hasNextPage endCursor }
nodes { id }
}
}
```
`first` ranges 1-250. **No `last`/`before`** — Linear is forward-only. To paginate descending, use `orderBy` with the appropriate direction (e.g. `createdAt`).
Helper in `lib/pagination.ts`:
```ts
async function* paginateAll<T>(
fetch: (cursor: string | null) => Promise<{ nodes: T[]; pageInfo: { hasNextPage: boolean; endCursor: string } }>
): AsyncGenerator<T> {
let cursor: string | null = null;
while (true) {
const page = await fetch(cursor);
yield* page.nodes;
if (!page.pageInfo.hasNextPage) return;
cursor = page.pageInfo.endCursor;
}
}
```
## Filter DSL
Filters are nested JSON trees:
```graphql
filter: {
and: [
{ state: { type: { eq: "started" } } },
{ priority: { lte: 2 } },
{ or: [
{ assignee: { isMe: { eq: true } } },
{ team: { key: { eq: "ENG" } } }
] },
{ labels: { some: { name: { in: ["bug", "regression"] } } } }
]
}
```
### Comparison operators
| Op | Strings | Numbers | Booleans | Dates |
|----|---------|---------|----------|-------|
| `eq` | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| `neq` | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| `in` / `nin` | ✓ | ✓ | — | — |
| `contains` / `startsWith` | ✓ | — | — | — |
| `lt` / `lte` / `gt` / `gte` | — | ✓ | — | ✓ |
| `null` | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
### Connection filters
- `some: { ... }` — at least one related entity matches
- `every: { ... }` — all related entities match
- `none: { ... }` — no related entity matches
### Common filter recipes
**Open issues in current cycle assigned to me:**
```graphql
filter: {
and: [
{ state: { type: { neq: "completed" } } },
{ cycle: { isActive: { eq: true } } },
{ assignee: { isMe: { eq: true } } }
]
}
```
**Issues blocked by something:**
```graphql
filter: { hasRelatedRelations: { eq: true } }
```
**Triage queue for ENG team older than 24h:**
```graphql
filter: {
and: [
{ team: { key: { eq: "ENG" } } },
{ state: { type: { eq: "triage" } } },
{ createdAt: { lt: "2026-04-29T00:00:00Z" } }
]
}
```
## Sorting
`orderBy: updatedAt | createdAt | priority | manual`. For complex sorts, fetch unsorted and sort client-side (only feasible for small result sets).
## Complexity budgeting
Each filter clause adds to query complexity. Reduce by:
- Selecting only needed fields
- Using `first: <smaller>` on connections within nodes
- Splitting one big query into two parallel smaller ones (Linear allows up to 4 in-flight)
