I was at my desk, constantly switching between Linear and PowerToys, and it was getting really frustrating. Every time I changed tools, my thoughts felt jumbled, and I often forgot the exact words I wanted to use for issues while waiting for Linear to load. Then I had an idea—what if I used PowerToys Run to create a new issue, similar to how I would on macOS with apps like Things or OmniFocus?
I imagined setting it up so I could quickly access Linear directly from PowerToys Run. I could type a specific command like “New Issue” followed by the details, all without switching applications. After doing that, everything became clearer.I finally felt more in control, able to create tasks efficiently while staying focused, and I could tackle my day without getting lost in the transitions.
You can check out the project here and watch a demonstration of it in action.
