Quizz MCP

When you're exploring a new concept, debugging code, or learning a framework through Claude or Claude Code, how much are you actually retaining? Quizz MCP helps you engage deeper with your AI interactions by generating quizzes that test your understanding - giving you new perspectives and revealing gaps you didn't know you had.

Why?

Reading explanations feels like understanding. But real comprehension comes from actively recalling and applying concepts. Quizz creates that active engagement:

• Test yourself on code you just reviewed

• Discover blind spots in your understanding

• Get AI feedback on your reasoning, not just right/wrong

• Track progress across topics over time

Getting Started

1. Install

git clone https://github.com/ThoBustos/quizz-mcp.git
cd quizz-mcp
pnpm install && pnpm build

Requires: Node.js 20.11+, pnpm 8+

2. Configure Claude Code

Add to your MCP settings (~/.claude/settings.json or project .mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "quizz": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/quizz-mcp/packages/mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "sk-ant-..."
      }
    }
  }
}

3. Start the Web UI

cd quizz-mcp
pnpm dev

Opens at http://localhost:9004

4. Generate Your First Quiz

In Claude Code, just ask:

Quiz me on what we just discussed

Or be specific:

Generate a quiz about React hooks - 5 questions, medium difficulty, mix of multiple choice and code writing

Claude will ask you to confirm:

• Content: What to quiz on

• Difficulty: Easy, Medium, Hard, or Expert

• Question count: 1-20 questions

• Question types: Multiple-choice, multi-select, open-ended, or code-writing

Then it opens the quiz in your browser.

Taking a Quiz

Keyboard Navigation

AI Chat

After each answer, you can chat with Claude about the question. Ask for clarification, explore edge cases, or dive deeper into concepts. Click the expand button (or Cmd+Shift+E) for a full-screen chat experience.

The chat supports code blocks, markdown, LaTeX math, and more:

Difficulty Levels

Quiz Results

When you complete a quiz, you'll see your score and a summary of all questions. Hit Try Again to reinforce your learning with spaced repetition.

Troubleshooting

Quiz won't generate?

• Ensure ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is set in your MCP config

• Check that the path to packages/mcp/dist/index.js is absolute

Browser doesn't open?

• Start the web UI manually: pnpm dev

• Navigate to http://localhost:9004/quiz/{session-id}

Database errors?

• The database is stored at ~/.quizz/data.db

• Both MCP server and web UI share this database

Fun fact: SQLite is the most deployed database in the world - it's in your phone, browser, car, and now tracking your quiz scores. Your learning progress is literally stored in the same format as aircraft flight systems. No pressure.
