Approving Drafts

Review and approve split submissions

When a channel is configured with Split & Review mode, submissions that contain multiple feedback items are split into separate drafts. Each draft requires your approval before a Linear issue is created.

How drafts work

In Split & Review mode, the workflow is:

  1. A submitter completes a feedback conversation that covers multiple topics
  2. The AI identifies distinct feedback items and generates a PRD for each
  3. Each item is saved as a draft submission
  4. Drafts appear in your inbox with a Draft badge
  5. You review each draft and approve or leave it pending
  6. Approved drafts automatically create Linear issues
Note
Single-item submissions in Split & Review mode are also created as drafts. This gives you a review step for all submissions, not just multi-item ones.

Reviewing a draft

To review a draft submission:

  1. Open the Submissions inbox from your dashboard
  2. Filter by status to see only drafts, or look for the Draft badge
  3. Click on a draft to see its full PRD, conversation excerpt, and priority suggestion
  4. Review the content for accuracy and relevance
  5. Click Approve to publish the submission and create the Linear issue

When to use Split & Review

Split & Review mode is ideal when:

  • You want to verify the AI's splitting logic before issues reach your backlog
  • You need to ensure PRD quality before issues are assigned
  • Your team processes feedback in batches and wants a review queue
  • You're working with high-volume channels where automatic splitting could create noise

If you trust the AI's splitting and want faster processing, use Auto-Split mode instead — it creates issues immediately without a review step.
