22-23: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winDescribe agent eligibility by runtime, not origin.
Scout was the only agent in the recorded walkthrough, but the eligibility check does not require Scout. It permits an agent added by the user when that agent runs in Commonly’s narrowed in-process runtime. The blanket statement that an agent the user brought does not qualify incorrectly rules out that supported case. State the runtime requirement instead. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Verified
- The listed connectors are walked, and the page says so. Slack, Telegram, GitHub and Linear are the four working connector guides; the readiness matrix records Telegram (re-walked 2026-09-27), Slack (2026-09-26/27), GitHub (2026-09-25/26) and Linear (fresh-account walk 2026-10-15) as walked on the current build. Discord is "partly" in the matrix and its page says "Not enabled on this instance… there are no working connection steps," so it is not presented as working.
- Red and not-offered items are not presented as working. GitHub's page says "An individual team cannot connect its own repository through this flow yet," which matches the matrix's red C1. Airtable and Sentry are in the connectors screenshot as "Connect," and the overview says "Other tools visible in the list are outside the walked guides here."
- Atlassian shows "read in testing," as the property asks. The screenshot reads "not granted · read in testing," with the admin allow-list note. The page does not present Atlassian as working.
- The connect steps match the screenshots. The desktop and mobile captures show Add on Slack and Telegram and Connect on Linear, with 0 granted and "no pod · not connected", which is the zero-grant state. The Slack, Telegram and Linear steps name those same controls.
- The Self-host block matches
SELF_HOST_COMMAND.V2LandingPage.tsx:35isgit clone https://github.com/Team-Commonly/commonly.git && cd commonly && ./install.sh;deployment/docker.mdxanddeployment/index.mdxshow the same three commands as separate lines, which is the same sequence. - Length, style and subtitles. Pages run 8 to 147 lines (the 147 is the grants reference, which was "keep"). Zero hedging or self-narration hits on the connector, deployment and introduction pages. No sentence subtitles.
- No infrastructure identifiers in the added lines. The screenshots' alt text and captions name no project, pool or cluster.
Defect: the Linear page is rebuilt, but its verdict is "keep"
The merged audit's row is integrations/linear.mdx → keep, with the instruction "Preserve the no-write-tools and qualifying-pod constraints; recheck UI labels only if the connector surface changes." The PR keeps the constraints and the revoke and untrusted-content lines, so the instruction is partly honoured. But it also deletes the content that explained why two Linear tools are withheld:
"Two Linear tools are deliberately left out. Both can make Linear fetch a URL the caller chooses: reading an attachment, and extracting the images from a document."
and the What agents can read table (issues, projects and cycles, documents, releases, people and teams, agent features). The audit's "keep" was for a page whose walk record covers that content. A reader who wants to know why attachments and document images are unavailable now gets no reason. Either restore the withheld-tools paragraph, or change this row's verdict in the audit to "rewrite" with the reason, so the record says the page was deliberately rebuilt.
Non-blocking
concepts/grants.mdx is "keep" and changed by seven lines, all of them the root-grant route sentence now naming Linear. That is a fact update inside a keep verdict, not a rewrite, so it is consistent with the audit.

The delta is one file, +15 lines, nothing removed
git diff 107c2ffa 6073b85c331b651433cc1f4b9e81ae87541c8336 touches docs-site/integrations/linear.mdx only: 15 insertions, 0 deletions. Nothing else moved.
Both pieces are back, in substance as on main
- The "What agents can read" table is back with the same six rows (Issues, Projects and cycles, Documents, Releases, People and teams, Agent features) and the same examples. The wording is tightened and capitalised ("List and open issues, statuses, labels, and comments" for "list and open issues, their statuses, labels and comments"); no row or example is dropped.
- The withheld-tools paragraph is back with the same reason: two tools are withheld, reading an attachment and extracting a document's images, and both can make Linear fetch a URL the caller chooses. The main wording is "deliberately left out … caller chooses"; the restored wording is "deliberately withheld … chosen by the caller", which says the same thing.
Not verbatim, so the restoration is by substance, not by copy. The property asks for the pieces "back as on main"; they are back on the substance and I am not holding on the wording.
Everything else from review 5631340103 stands
Walked connectors, the red and not-offered handling, the Atlassian "read in testing" line, the screenshots and the self-host block were all verified at 107c2ffa and are unchanged by this delta.
CI: 21 pass, 3 skipping. mergeStateStatus CLEAN.
