Add Cycles & Project Milestones + Automated Testing

Summary

This PR adds comprehensive cycles and project milestones support to linearis, fixes two critical bugs, and establishes automated testing infrastructure.

Features Added

Cycles Management: List, read, create, update, and delete cycles with smart filtering
Project Milestones: Full CRUD operations for project milestones
Smart ID Resolution: Resolve cycles by name or ID with automatic disambiguation

Bug Fixes

Command Naming: Renamed projectMilestones to project-milestones for CLI consistency
GraphQL Complexity: Refactored cycles to use SDK pagination, eliminating "query too complex" errors

Testing Infrastructure

27 automated tests (14 unit, 13 integration) - all passing
35% command coverage (cycles and project-milestones fully covered)
GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline
Custom command coverage tool for CLI-specific metrics

Closes

Closes project.targetDate?.toISOString when running linearis projects list #1 (bug: project.targetDate error)
Closes Support for Cycles in Linearis CLI #2 (feature: cycles support)
Closes Feature Request: Add milestone support to issues update command #3 (feature: milestone support)

Cycles Commands

List Cycles

# List all cycles
linearis cycles list

# Filter by team
linearis cycles list --team Engineering

# Show only active cycles
linearis cycles list --active --team Backend

# Show cycles around the active one (±N cycles)
linearis cycles list --around-active 5 --team Backend

Read Cycle

# By ID
linearis cycles read cycle-uuid

# By name (with team disambiguation)
linearis cycles read "Sprint 2025-11" --team Backend

# Limit number of issues returned
linearis cycles read cycle-uuid --issues-first 100

Features:

✅ Smart name resolution with disambiguation (prefers active → next → previous)
✅ Automatic pagination (handles 500+ cycles without complexity errors)
✅ Rich cycle data including progress, issue counts, and team info

Project Milestones Commands

List Milestones

# List milestones for a project
linearis project-milestones list --project "Mobile App"

# Limit results
linearis project-milestones list --project "Backend API" -l 10

Read Milestone

# By ID
linearis project-milestones read milestone-uuid

# By name (with project disambiguation)
linearis project-milestones read "MVP Release" --project "Mobile App"

# Include issues
linearis project-milestones read milestone-uuid --issues-first 50

Create Milestone

linearis project-milestones create "Q1 Goals" \
  --project "Mobile App" \
  --description "First quarter objectives" \
  --target-date 2025-03-31

Update Milestone

linearis project-milestones update "Q1 Goals" \
  --project "Mobile App" \
  --target-date 2025-04-15 \
  --description "Updated timeline"

Features:

✅ Project-scoped name resolution
✅ Target date tracking
✅ Issue association and progress tracking

Bug Fixes

Issue 1: Command Naming Inconsistency

Before: linearis projectMilestones (camelCase - didn't work as expected)
After: linearis project-milestones (kebab-case - works correctly)

Impact: Users can now discover and use the command with standard CLI conventions.

Issue 2: GraphQL Complexity Errors

Before: Direct GraphQL queries failed with "query too complex" for workspaces with 500+ cycles
After: SDK-based pagination handles any workspace size

Changes:

Added getCycles(), getCycleById(), resolveCycleId() to LinearService
Refactored cycles.ts from 135 lines to 78 lines
Uses Linear SDK's automatic pagination (250 cycles per request)
Maintains all functionality (--team, --active, --around-active)

Testing Framework

Manual Testing

Cycles Commands:

# Should work without complexity errors
linearis cycles list --team <YOUR_TEAM>
linearis cycles list --around-active 5 --team <YOUR_TEAM>
linearis cycles read <CYCLE_ID>

Project Milestones Commands:

# Should use kebab-case naming
linearis project-milestones --help
linearis project-milestones list --project "<PROJECT_NAME>"

Regression Tests:

# Other commands should still work
linearis issues list -l 5
linearis projects list

Implementation Details

Architecture

Cycles Implementation:

Before: cycles command → rawRequest() → Single GraphQL query
After:  cycles command → LinearService → SDK with pagination

Files Changed:

src/commands/cycles.ts - New cycles command (78 lines)
src/commands/projectMilestones.ts - New milestones command (308 lines)
src/utils/linear-service.ts - Add cycle methods (+169 lines)
src/queries/cycles.ts - GraphQL queries (deprecated, preserved for reference)
src/queries/projectMilestones.ts - GraphQL queries (149 lines)

Testing Files:

tests/unit/linear-service-cycles.test.ts - 14 unit tests
tests/integration/cycles-cli.test.ts - 8 integration tests
tests/integration/project-milestones-cli.test.ts - 5 integration tests
tests/command-coverage.ts - Command coverage analyzer
.github/workflows/ci.yml - CI/CD pipeline

Smart ID Resolution

Cycles:

Accepts UUID or cycle name
Disambiguates multiple matches: active → next → previous
Team filtering for disambiguation
Clear error messages for ambiguous names

Project Milestones:

Accepts UUID or milestone name
Project-scoped name lookup
Falls back to global search if needed
Disambiguation with helpful error messages

Breaking Changes

None - All changes are backward compatible:

New commands added (cycles, project-milestones)
Existing commands unchanged
Command naming fix makes previously broken command work

Performance

Cycles with Large Datasets:

Before: Failed at ~75+ cycles (complexity error)
After: Handles 500+ cycles reliably
Trade-off: ~100-200ms slower for small datasets (acceptable)

Future Work

Testing Coverage Goals:

Issues commands (list, read, create, update, search)
Labels list
Comments create
Project milestones create/update/read

Target: 50%+ command coverage

About the Tests

I went ahead and added the testing framework (apologies for not waiting for explicit approval from PR
#4). I had the time this weekend and thought an automated test framework would make it easier for you to
accept contributions while ensuring no regressions are introduced.

If you're comfortable with this direction, I'd be interested in contributing additional features:

Creating Linear projects
Editing projects
Other CRUD operations

I'm happy to create issues/PRs for these if they align with your vision for the tool. Or we can connect
via DM to discuss further if you're interested in having a contributor.

Let me know your thoughts!

czottmann · 2025-11-03T11:57:23Z

The mama of all PRs, eh? 😂 Thanks, @ryanrozich, I'll be reviewing now!

czottmann

Looks like a pretty solid patch, thank you! There are a few issues that need some more love, but overall I'm quite happy with it, especially considering the breadth.

Side note: It's borderline unwieldy due to the scope (two new commands plus testing setup). Having several smaller PRs would make it easier to review, especially for a human 😉

The project resolution code is duplicated several times (lines 43+, 91+, etc.). Please extract it into a helper function.

Fixed - extracted resolveProjectId() helper function

This milestone resolution logic appears both in the "read" and "update" commands, and is nearly identical code. I'd put it in a helper function.

Fixed - extracted resolveMilestoneId() helper function

Outdated queries should be removed. If they're to be kept as reference, make it part of the docs, please.

You're right - will remove these deprecated queries since they're not being used. The SDK-based approach replaced them entirely.

CRAP. This wasn't supposed to be closed! I just deleted a branch, hnnngh. Let me try to reopen this.

- Keep both cycles/milestones and embeds functionality - Preserve our CLAUDE.md with testing documentation - Combine gitignore entries from both branches

- Fix indentation in graphql-issues-service.ts (4 spaces consistently) - Split two-statement line into separate lines - Extract helper functions for project and milestone ID resolution - Add DEFAULT_CYCLE_PAGINATION_LIMIT constant instead of magic number 250 - Keep deprecated cycles queries with clear documentation Addresses all review comments from czottmann

ryanrozich · 2025-11-08T13:45:33Z

Apologies for the large PR, the automated testing idea was an add-on after you found the bug. Appreciate you taking the time to review!

Per review feedback, removing the deprecated cycles.ts queries file since they are no longer used after refactoring to SDK-based pagination

- Keep both our fragments (cycles, milestones) and upstream fragments (comments, parent, children) - Rebuild dist files after conflict resolution

czottmann · 2025-11-09T17:13:59Z

Merged! Thanks again, @ryanrozich!

Add two-layer service architecture documentation and update test suite description in preparation for PR #7 merge. This ensures AGENTS.md contains all relevant documentation before restoring CLAUDE.md symlink.

These files were accidentally committed in PR #7: - Research notes (labels-*, github-issue-*, project-labels-*) - PR description draft (pr-7-description.md) They belong in local notes/drafts, not the repository. Part of ZCO-1576

These queries were replaced with Linear SDK implementation in PR #7 to avoid GraphQL complexity errors with large datasets (500+ cycles). The file was not imported or used anywhere in the codebase. Part of ZCO-1576
