How to Use the CoderPad MCP in LlamaIndex
Index live CoderPad session data directly into your LlamaIndex vector stores to search past interviews and candidate code.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect CoderPad MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect CoderPad to LlamaIndex and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Index CoderPad sessions into LlamaIndex vector stores
Turn flat CoderPad text logs into searchable knowledge with this MCP Server. Your LlamaIndex pipeline calls `get_pad_event_log` to fetch the play-by-play actions of a session, then indexes them directly into your vector database. Recruiters can query their historical CoderPad candidate pool using natural language inside LlamaIndex. The agent finds similar coding patterns across hundreds of previous assessments instantly.
Build RAG-powered question matching with this MCP Server
Match the right CoderPad test to the candidate's background by querying your internal bank with LlamaIndex. This server exposes `list_coderpad_questions` to feed your RAG pipeline with your team's real coding challenges. The LlamaIndex agent compares the candidate's resume against the indexed CoderPad questions to choose the perfect fit. This removes the guesswork from interview prep.
Analyze interviewer behavior and session usage
Keep track of your team's CoderPad interviewing habits using LlamaIndex. By querying `get_coderpad_usage_history` and `list_coderpad_org_users`, your agent builds a clear picture of who is hosting pads and how much quota you have left. The LlamaIndex pipeline writes these CoderPad metrics directly into your performance dashboard. You get hard data on active interviewers without running manual exports.
