For Virginia Tech students 20 tools
Your AI, with VT's catalog in hand.
Ndex connects the AI app you already use (Claude, ChatGPT, or any app that supports MCP connectors) to Virginia Tech's official catalog, Timetable of Classes, Pathways lists, transfer guides, policies and academic calendar. It also gives your AI a degree planner that works from your DARS audit. Your AI answers from what Ndex looks up and cites the page it came from.

Add it to your AI app
Paste the connector URL into your app's settings, then turn Ndex on in a chat.

Ndex is a remote MCP server over Streamable HTTP with no authentication. In Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http ndex https://getndex.app/mcp
In apps configured with JSON, like Cursor:
{ "mcpServers": { "ndex": { "url": "https://getndex.app/mcp" } } }

Planning from your record
For questions about you (can I take CS 3214, what do I still need, when could I graduate, what if I add a math minor), paste your DARS audit from Hokie SPA into the chat. Your AI reads your courses off it and sends them along with the question. Ndex works the answer out from those courses and keeps nothing once it replies.

Good to know
- Your DARS audit and your advisor are the official word. Ndex's audits and plans are a second opinion.
- Seat counts are seats offered when the Timetable was read, not seats open right now.
- VT doesn't publish who teaches upcoming sections, so Ndex can't tell you.
- Your conversation lives in your AI app, under its privacy terms. Ndex only sees the lookups your AI makes.
- Ndex isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Virginia Tech.
