Each command has detailed help output describing all available flags and options.

Some commands have required flags that aren't obvious. Notable examples:

- `issue list` requires a sort order — provide it via `--sort` (valid values: `manual`, `priority`), the `issue_sort` config option, or the `LINEAR_ISSUE_SORT` env var. Also requires `--team <key>` unless the team can be inferred from the directory — if unknown, run `linear team list` first.
- `--no-pager` is only supported on `issue list` — passing it to other commands like `project list` will error.

## Using the Linear GraphQL API Directly

**Prefer the CLI for all supported operations.** The `api` command should only be used as a fallback for queries not covered by the CLI.
