Decision guide

Where it fits—and where it doesn’t.

Best for

Triage issues

Not ideal for

Unsupervised use with broad sensitive-data access or consequential write actions.

Common setup gotchas

  • Plan, region, role and workspace policy can change what is visible.
  • The live OAuth and action scopes—not this summary—are authoritative at setup.

Permission & privacy notes

Know what you’re opening up.

Repositories, logs and infrastructure metadata can expose proprietary code or secrets. Limit projects and never place credentials in prompts.

Connection screens and capabilities can change. Recheck requested permissions at setup, remove access you no longer need and follow your organisation’s data-handling policy.

Platform comparison

Same tool. Different connection.

“Verified” means the tool appears in the official platform catalogue or current first-party documentation. It does not guarantee access on every plan or surface. “Not found” records only what our checked sources showed—it is not a claim of incompatibility.

ChatGPT

Use issue, project and roadmap context for planning, triage and delivery updates. Exact fields and actions depend on the live connection and source-system permissions.

Plan & admin reality
Availability varies by plan, workspace policy, role, region and supported ChatGPT surface. Check the live Plugin Directory entry before rollout.
Confirmation model
Review OAuth scopes and the live permission screen. Require human confirmation before external writes, sends, publishing or data changes.
Privacy note
Repositories, logs and infrastructure metadata can expose proprietary code or secrets. Limit projects and never place credentials in prompts.
Runtime caveat
Capabilities can change without notice; recheck the live listing and permission screen before setup. Grok connectors are MCP-based.

Claude

Verified

Capabilities

Plan & admin reality
Listed in Anthropic's Connectors Directory (browsable in Claude, Claude Desktop and Claude mobile). Connectors are free to add, but a paid Claude plan is required, and the connected service's own subscription still applies separately.
Confirmation model
Review OAuth scopes and the live permission screen. Require human confirmation before external writes, sends, publishing or data changes.
Privacy note
Repositories, logs and infrastructure metadata can expose proprietary code or secrets. Limit projects and never place credentials in prompts.
Runtime caveat
Claude connectors run on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open standard Anthropic created. Capabilities can change without notice; recheck the live Connectors Directory entry and permission screen before setup.

Gemini

Verified

Linear is confirmed as a connector under Gemini Enterprise – Business edition. Google documents it as public preview. Review the live listing for exact actions and required admin authorisation.

Plan & admin reality
Documented under Gemini Enterprise – Business edition, a separately priced product (around $21/user/month, annual commitment) aimed at small businesses and individual departments — not the same as Gemini for Google Workspace or the standalone consumer Gemini app. Google marks this connector as public preview, not general availability. Linear's own administrator must authorise the connector in the Gemini Enterprise UI before an individual can use it.
Confirmation model
Review OAuth scopes and the live permission screen. Require human confirmation before external writes, sends, publishing or data changes.
Privacy note
Repositories, logs and infrastructure metadata can expose proprietary code or secrets. Limit projects and never place credentials in prompts.
Runtime caveat
This runs under Gemini Enterprise – Business edition, a distinct product from the consumer Gemini app or Gemini for Google Workspace. Preview-status connectors can change materially before general availability; recheck the live listing and admin authorisation before setup.

Grok

Verified
