Deadnodes Code Playbook

  • Structured interview workspace
  • Secure candidate launch
  • Connected to meeting and profile
  • Captured as source-linked events

Give a real task during the interview

Use Code Playbook when you want to ask practical architecture, debugging, automation, or scripting questions without switching to a generic shared document.

  • Architecture reasoning
  • Debugging steps
  • Automation snippets

Watch the candidate reasoning

Pair a terminal incident task with a playbook exercise, or use the playbook on its own when the interview needs focused knowledge validation.

  • Terminal + playbook
  • Standalone exercises
  • Reusable templates

Use AI to summarise technical events

The playbook session stays tied to the candidate session while AI converts recorded technical events into a readable, source-linked summary.

  • Candidate session
  • Technical event summary
  • Source references
