About Lattice MCP Server
Connect your AI agent directly to Lattice HR. With this server, your LLM can fetch detailed employee profiles, active OKRs, tasks, and search continuous feedback loops directly tied to the Lattice platform.
LlamaIndex agents combine Lattice tool responses with indexed documents for comprehensive, grounded answers. Connect 9 tools through Vinkius and query live data alongside vector stores and SQL databases in a single turn. ideal for hybrid search, data enrichment, and analytical workflows.
What you can do
- Employee Directory: Fetch user metadata directly from your HRIS via Lattice.
- Goal Tracking: Query active company or individual OKRs and assess progress.
- Feedback & Praise: Monitor continuous feedback loops and recognition events.
- Review Cycles: Check past and current performance review structural data.
The Lattice MCP Server exposes 9 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LlamaIndex in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use LlamaIndex with the Lattice MCP Server
LlamaIndex provides unique advantages when paired with Lattice through the Model Context Protocol.
Data-first architecture: LlamaIndex agents combine Lattice tool responses with indexed documents for comprehensive, grounded answers
Query pipeline framework lets you chain Lattice tool calls with transformations, filters, and re-rankers in a typed pipeline
Multi-source reasoning: agents can query Lattice, a vector store, and a SQL database in a single turn and synthesize results
Observability integrations show exactly what Lattice tools were called, what data was returned, and how it influenced the final answer
Lattice + LlamaIndex Use Cases
Practical scenarios where LlamaIndex combined with the Lattice MCP Server delivers measurable value.
