Pre-requisites

To have Thor perform task management features you will need to connect at least one task management platform. Currently Thor supports GitHub and Linear issues.

​
Use cases

​
Convert a thread into a task

Thor can automatically summarize and extract any important action items from a long thread, and convert it into a task for you: If you don’t have a default repository configured, Thor will prompt you to choose one.

​
Search for existing tasks

Have Thor retrieve an existing task based on a freeform query:

​
Assign and categorize tasks

Have Thor automatically assign and categorize your tasks:

​
Delegate to coding agents

Have Thor assess if a task is suited for delegation to your favorite AI coding assistant. Currently supported coding agents are Cursor, Claude, Tembo and Charlie. Connect Cursor or Claude from the MCP tab on Quickstart so your coding agent can pull issue context, related discussions, and prior decisions directly from Thor.

​
Context for coding agents

Someone decides something in a meeting. Someone else changes their mind in Slack on Friday. The ticket still says what it said three weeks ago. Nobody lied. The team just moved faster than its own notes. Then a coding agent reads that ticket and builds exactly what it says, including the parts that are no longer true. Thor keeps the record current and hands it to whoever picks up the work next, human or agent. When Thor has something worth adding, it injects a briefing into the GitHub or Linear issue body. That is the context pack, written onto the ticket so whoever opens the issue already has it. The block is folded so it does not clutter the description. A person sees one line, Additional context (powered by Thor AI). An agent reading the issue sees the full context pack: parent work, related PRs, governing docs, meetings, and decisions. The last line of that block tells the agent how to call Thor if the bullets are not enough.
Thor embeds that block into GitHub issue and Linear issue bodies. If you don’t see Additional context (powered by Thor AI) on your tickets yet, email support@thor.ai.
Thor doesn’t write the code. That’s what Cursor, Claude Code, and the rest are for. Thor makes sure the agent doing the work has the right historical context.

​
Update progress from your editor

If you are heads-down in your editor and need to update Linear with your progress, your MCP client can post it back to Thor:

​
Task Subscriptions

Thor can monitor tasks for important updates, comments and changes, then notify you via DM when this occurs: Other examples:
Hey @Thor, notify me when github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/145 is completed
Hey @Thor, alert me if issue #42 gets blocked or closed
