Linear's CEO just said issue tracking is dead. And honestly, for anyone building with agents, this checks out.
25% of new issues on Linear are agent-created. 5x growth in three months. When I look at my own workflows, I stopped manually creating work items weeks ago. The agents file issues, pick them up, write the code, and open PRs.
The part that's missing everywhere - including in my setup until recently - is the accountability layer. When an agent-created issue leads to a bug in production, who owns that? I don't have a clean answer yet. But I know the PM who builds this governance layer is going to be worth a lot more than the PM who tracks tasks in a dashboard.
If you're a solo builder running agents, have you thought about who governs the output when the agent makes the decisions?
