Research direction

Start by tracing the path that syncs a new GitHub issue to Linear, then compare it with the existing path that creates a link when a Linear comment is added. Done means a new GitHub-to-Linear sync adds a comment linking to the created Linear issue, without requiring a later Linear comment.
