Generates question banks from user-authored definitions and outputs them in GIFT or Moodle XML so the moodle-teacher extension can import the reviewed, filtered questions into a Moodle question bank. Supports true/false, multiple choice, short answer, matching and ordering questions, with per-concept and per-type review and the ability to exclude unwanted questions before import.
Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@asker-mcp draft a definitions file from my cell biology notes, then generate GIFT questions"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Your AI agent turns your definitions into a bank of questions with Asker. A definitions file drafted from your notes and checked, questions generated in GIFT or Moodle XML, and reviewed with you before they reach Moodle.
asker-mcp is an MCP server for Asker, which generates many questions (true/false, multiple choice, short answer, matching, ordering) from a file of definitions: a concept's names, its definition and its tables. An AI agent drafts that file from your notes in Asker's language, checks it, runs Asker on it, and goes through the questions with you so the bad ones are left out before the moodle-teacher extension imports the rest into your question bank. The questions come from your own definitions, the same every time. It's in development and not on npm yet.
📝 Your definitions, your questions. Every question traces back to a definition you wrote or approved.
✅ Checked first. An input with a mistake is reported with its line, and nothing is generated.
🔎 Reviewed with you. The questions by concept and type, and a copy without the ones you leave out.
🎓 Ready for Moodle. GIFT or Moodle XML, for moodle-teacher's question import.
🔁 Reusable. Your input files stay yours, to generate again next year.

There is only a single tool, so there is no possibility of confusing it with another action or resource. Its purpose (reporting server metadata) is unambiguous.
Only one name exists, so no inconsistency is possible, but 'server_info' is a noun-style identifier rather than a verb_noun pattern, making it hard to call fully predictable.
A one-tool surface is extremely thin and essentially trivial; an agent gains almost no capability from this server beyond introspection. This is the 'too few (1)' end of the scale.
Given the narrowly stated purpose of reporting server name, version, data folder, and program-installation status, the single tool bundles all of that information. Minor gap: no separate check for individual dependencies or health beyond what one aggregate call returns.
