Description

Hi! Thanks for the work that has gone into this so far. It looks very promising. I am getting started with Linear and love that you're working on a MCP server to interact with it.

A quick question ... on line 91 of the [README](https://github.com/cline/linear-mcp/blob/main/README.md?plain=1#L91C1-L92C1) it says that the server is currently able to create issues with parent / child relationships. However, when I ask cursor if it can do that, it says that it cannot. The MCP description for the linear_create_issue also does not show that as a parameter.

What do you think is going on?

Research direction

Start with README lines 91-92 and the MCP description for linear_create_issue, then locate the corresponding tool implementation and compare the documented parent/child capability with its exposed parameters. Done means determining whether the capability is missing or only undocumented, and bringing the behavior and documentation into agreement.
