How to Use the Lattice MCP in Claude

Q: How do I configure the Lattice MCP Server inside Claude Desktop?

Open your claudedesktopconfig.json file and add the server under the mcpServers key. Provide your Vinkius API token and restart the app to let your agent access the tools.

Q: Can Claude Desktop write or change my goals in Lattice?

No. This MCP integration uses read-only endpoints like listgoals and getgoal. Your agent cannot edit, delete, or create any records inside your HR system.

Q: How does Claude Desktop handle large lists of Lattice users?

The listusers tool fetches your directory in paginated batches over the MCP connection. Claude Desktop reads this structured data to find specific team members without hitting API limits.

Q: Is my sensitive performance review data safe?

Yes. All employee records, goals, and feedback pulled via listreviews run through an ephemeral V8 Isolate sandbox. Vinkius never caches or stores this HR data on its servers, keeping your company records strictly between Claude Desktop and the API.

Pull Lattice goals and reviews directly into Claude Desktop to write self-assessments without toggling tabs.

Perplexity

Sync performance data directly inside Claude Desktop

The Lattice MCP Server lets you query team objectives using `list_goals` or fetch individual metrics via `get_goal` directly in your chat window. Instead of manual copy-pasting, your agent reads the live data. This lets you draft quick status updates or align daily tasks with broader company targets in seconds.

Draft reviews with live peer feedback

The `get_feedback` and `list_feedback` tools pull real-time peer praise and reviews right into your active prompt. You no longer have to dig through old emails or log into the web portal. The system grabs the exact entries you need so you can analyze patterns and write accurate self-assessments.

Track team objectives and pending tasks

The `list_tasks` and `list_users` tools pull your current checklist and map those tasks to the right team members. Claude Desktop processes these lists to highlight overdue items. You get a clear view of who needs a nudge without opening a single browser tab.
