## What this connects

CodeREADr is a mobile data collection and barcode scanning platform that enables businesses to create and manage services for data capture, validation, and reporting.

Vendor: https://www.codereadr.com

## Tools available

**16** tools available. First 12:

- `CODEREADR_COLLECT_DATA_WITH_QUESTIONS` — Collect Data With Questions — Create and attach custom questions to a CodeREADr service for data collection after scans. Use this to configure forms that collect additional information from users after each barcode scan. Requires a valid service ID from CODEREADR_RETRIEVE_SERVICES or CODEREADR_CREATE_SERVICE.
- `CODEREADR_CONFIGURE_CONNECTOR` — Configure CodeREADr Connector — Helper to guide configuring the CodeREADr Connector for Google Sheets. There is no public API to programmatically create connector configurations. This tool validates your API connectivity (optional) and returns clear steps to proceed via the Google Sheets Add-on UI: https://www.codereadr.com/knowledgebase/codereadr-connector-add-on/
- `CODEREADR_CREATE_SERVICE` — Create CodeREADr Service — Creates a new CodeREADr service (barcode scanning workflow configuration). A service defines how barcode scans are processed - whether they're simply recorded, validated against a database, forwarded to an external URL, or display web content. Each validation_method type has different required parameters: 'database'/'ondevicedatabase' require database_id, 'postback' requires postback_url, 'webview' requires description (URL/HTML).
- `CODEREADR_DELETE_DATABASE` — Delete CodeREADr Database — Delete a CodeREADr validation database by its ID. This permanently removes the database and all its barcode values. Use with caution. Note: A database cannot be deleted if it is currently linked to one or more services. You must unlink those services from the database first. Example: "Delete database with ID 1340798"
- `CODEREADR_DELETE_DEVICE` — Delete Device — Tool to delete a device from CodeREADr. Uses the CodeREADr legacy API with section=devices and action=delete parameters. Note: Device deletion may have limited support in the CodeREADr API - only 'retrieve' and 'update' actions are officially documented for devices.
- `CODEREADR_DELETE_QUESTION` — Delete Custom Question — Permanently deletes one or more custom questions from your CodeREADr account. Questions are used to collect additional data after scans. Once deleted, the question and all associated answer options are removed. This action cannot be undone.
- `CODEREADR_DELETE_SERVICE` — Delete CodeREADr Service — Delete a CodeREADr service by its numeric ID. Use this to permanently remove a service/workflow configuration from your account. Note: This is a destructive action and cannot be undone. You can delete a single service, multiple services (comma-separated IDs), or all services. Example: "Delete service with ID 12345"
- `CODEREADR_DELETE_USER` — Delete CodeREADr User — Deletes an existing user account from CodeREADr. Uses the CodeREADr legacy API endpoint (POST /api/ with section=users, action=delete). The user_id parameter can be a single ID, comma-separated list of IDs, or 'all'. Note: You cannot delete the account owner's app-user. The API will return an error if an invalid user_id is provided.
- `CODEREADR_GENERATE_SCAN_LINK` — Generate Scan Link — Generates a CodeREADr scan link URI that opens the CodeREADr mobile app with a pre-filled scan value. Use this tool when you need to create clickable links that launch the CodeREADr scanner with a specific barcode, QR code, or identifier already entered.
- `CODEREADR_LIST_SUPPORTED_BARCODE_TYPES` — List Supported Barcode Types — Lists barcode symbologies supported by CodeREADr for scanning. Returns 1D barcodes (Code 39, Code 128, EAN, UPC, Codabar, etc.), 2D barcodes (QR Code, Data Matrix, PDF-417, Aztec, etc.), and specialized formats. Use this to verify if a specific barcode type is supported before scanning.
- `CODEREADR_RETRIEVE_DATABASES` — Retrieve CodeREADr Databases — Retrieves all validation databases configured in your CodeREADr account. Use this to list databases for barcode validation, see their IDs, names, item counts, and which services they're linked to.
- `CODEREADR_RETRIEVE_DEVICES` — Retrieve Devices — Retrieve a list of devices registered to your CodeREADr account. This tool fetches information about devices linked to your account, including device IDs, UDIDs, names, and creation timestamps. Use this to monitor which devices have access to your CodeREADr services.

## How agents use Codereadr

Inside a Definable workflow, Codereadr is one of the tools the **Distributor specialist** can call. Example coordination patterns:

- **Researcher → Codereadr** — the Researcher (GPT-5.5) pulls context from Codereadr (records, threads, documents), synthesises findings, and briefs the rest of the team.
- **Writer → Distributor → Codereadr** — the Writer (Claude Opus 4.7) drafts copy in brand voice, the Verifier passes it, then the Distributor writes the result into Codereadr (create record, post message, draft email).
- **Designer / Engineer → Distributor → Codereadr** — the Designer ships an asset or the Engineer ships a code change, the Distributor delivers it via Codereadr (attach file, open PR comment, post status).

The Verifier checks every Codereadr call. On rate limit, schema drift, or auth refresh it self-heals and retries — the workflow completes without manual intervention.
