Initialize Linear Workspace

One-time setup to prepare Linear workspace for the SWF workflow.

Workflow

Check current state:
- List existing teams, projects, labels
- Report what's already set up vs what's missing
- Skip anything that already exists

Create Label groups and labels:

type（任务类型）
├── dev          #4EA7FC  编码开发
├── experiment   #F2C94C  实验运行
├── writing      #6FCF97  文档/论文写作
├── figures      #BB87FC  图表制作
└── admin        #BDBDBD  提交/沟通/杂务

executor（执行者）
├── agent:claude  #D2915D  Claude Code 处理
├── agent:codex   #26B5CE  Codex 处理
└── manual        #EB5757  需要手动操作

First create parent groups with create_issue_label using isGroup: true:
- type (isGroup: true)
- executor (isGroup: true)
Then create sub-labels with parent parameter pointing to the group name:
- e.g., create_issue_label(name: "dev", color: "#4EA7FC", description: "编码开发", parent: "type")
Skip any that already exist

Create Ideas project:
- Name: Ideas
- Icon: :bulb:
- Description: "立项评估漏斗。每个想法作为一个 issue，评估任务作为 sub-issue。评估通过 → 归档 issue，建独立 Project 和 GitHub repo。评估否决 → 归档 issue，留记录。"
- Skip if already exists
Create Archive project:
- Name: Archive
- Icon: :file_cabinet:
- Description: "归档中心。所有项目的 Done/Canceled issues 导出为 Documents 存放于此。用于释放 250 issue 额度。"
- Skip if already exists
Clean up default issues (if present):
- Check for Linear onboarding issues (titles like "Get familiar with Linear", "Set up your teams", etc.)
- Ask user: "发现 X 个 Linear 默认引导 issue，要标记为 Canceled 吗？"
- If yes, mark them Canceled

Remind team settings:

请在 Linear 网页上手动配置以下设置：

Settings → Team Settings → Workflows & automations:
- Auto-close parent issue: 开启（子 issue 全完成时自动关闭父 issue）
- Auto-archive closed items after: 1 month（最短选项）

完成后 SWF 工作流即可使用。

Report:

## Linear 初始化完成

✓ Labels: type (5) + executor (3)
✓ Ideas 项目
✓ Archive 项目
○ 默认 issue 已清理

手动设置提醒：
- [ ] Auto-close parent issue
- [ ] Auto-archive = 1 month

下一步：
- /swf:idea <name>    记录第一个研究想法
- /swf:import         导入已有项目

Notes

This skill is idempotent — safe to run multiple times, skips existing items
Only creates workspace-level resources, not project-specific ones
Team settings (auto-close, auto-archive) cannot be set via MCP, must be done manually in web UI
