LABSCO SUMMARY
Two skills are pure orientation: pinecone-quickstart walks a first-time user through either the database path or the Assistant path, and pinecone-help is an index of what the other eight do and what you need before using them. The rest split by how you reach Pinecone: pinecone-query searches an index over MCP using plain text, but only an "integrated" index with a built-in embedding model — for a standard index, or any vector operation beyond search, the README routes you to pinecone-cli instead, which covers every index type from the terminal. pinecone-assistant creates and chats with a document-Q&A assistant; pinecone-full-text-search builds and queries a text-search index with its own bundled ingestion script; pinecone-mcp documents the MCP server's own tools; pinecone-n8n wires the Assistant or vector-store node into an n8n workflow; and pinecone-docs is a curated links reference.
This is for a developer already using or evaluating Pinecone as their vector database. Seven of the nine need a Pinecone account and API key, one additionally needs the Pinecone MCP server configured, and only pinecone-help needs nothing at all.
READ THE FULL ANALYSIS
Not the recommended path for Claude Code. Pinecone's own README says so directly: this library targets Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, and similar agentic IDEs, and a Claude Code user is pointed instead at Pinecone's separate pinecone-claude-code-plugin. Install this repository for any of the other supported tools; go elsewhere first if Claude Code is what you run.

SETUP
Showing all 9 skills
pinecone-assistant
Upload a folder of documents and then simply ask questions about it. Pinecone stores, indexes and searches the files for you — there is nothing to build and nothing to run.
pinecone-cli
Run your Pinecone account from a terminal instead of the web console — create and inspect its search databases, load or delete data in bulk, take backups, and script the lot.
pinecone-docs
Looks up the right page in Pinecone's official documentation for whatever you're building, instead of relying on out-of-date training data.
pinecone-full-text-search
A search box over your own documents: it matches the exact words people type, and when exact words are not enough it can rank by meaning instead.
pinecone-help
Lists every Pinecone skill in one place, points you to the right one for your task, and says what you need before starting any of them.
pinecone-mcp
Pinecone plugs into AI assistants through a connector called an MCP server. This is the list of every command that connector offers, what each one does, and what you have to pass it.
pinecone-n8n
In n8n, the drag-and-drop tool for wiring apps together, this builds the flow that puts your documents into Pinecone and lets a chatbot answer questions from them.
pinecone-query
Type a question in ordinary words and get back the records in a Pinecone database that answer it, without having to turn the question into numbers yourself.
pinecone-quickstart
A guided first hour with Pinecone, down one of two paths: build a tiny searchable store of example sentences and query it, or upload files and ask an assistant about them.
No skill in this package matches that.
