What you get with Codility
Agentic interviews with the Claude Code CLI
The full Claude Code CLI is available inside Codility Screen, Interview and Skills Intelligence, preconfigured in the VS Code terminal with no separate Claude account or API key. In Interview, interviewer and candidate share the terminal, and every prompt, command and change is saved to the record.
You set the AI posture
Enable or disable the AI Assistant per assessment. With it enabled, every interaction is captured as reviewable AI activity beside the work. With it disabled, the integrity signals are designed to surface outside help.
Layered integrity signals
ID verification, behavioral monitoring, code evolution replay, secure desktop mode designed to detect invisible AI overlays, copy-paste controls and Similarity Check, plus typing pattern detection and cheating apps detection.
One risk level, and a human on the decision
Those signals resolve into one deterministic Integrity Risk level that shows which of them contributed. Every signal routes to a human reviewer and never auto-rejects a candidate.
Four questions to ask any vendor
How was this score constructed?
Ask to see the method behind the number. Codility publishes it in a 92-page Technical Manual, with criteria fixed and weighted before a task is released.
What does a reviewer see when an integrity signal fires?
A flag is only useful if someone can act on it. Ask whether the signals resolve into one risk level that shows which of them contributed, and who is accountable for the decision that follows.
Can candidates work with the real coding agent, and will I see what they did?
Ask whether candidates use the agent itself, such as the Claude Code CLI in a terminal, on a multi-file project. Then ask what stays on the record: every prompt, command and code change.
Who on your team will my team work with after the sale?
Ask for names and roles. Assessment design, cut scores and adverse impact review are specialist work that needs named people.
