Description
Pinecone's official MCP server connects an assistant to your Pinecone account for both data operations and development support.
What it covers
- Index management. List indexes, inspect configuration and statistics, and create new ones.
- Search. Query indexes semantically, with namespace and metadata filtering, and cascading search across multiple namespaces.
- Upserting records, including text that Pinecone embeds server-side with integrated inference.
- Documentation search. The server exposes Pinecone's own documentation as a searchable tool, so an assistant writing Pinecone code can check the current API rather than recalling an old one.
Why the docs tool matters
Vector database APIs have changed substantially over the past two years, and models routinely generate code against deprecated client versions. Having current documentation available as a tool measurably improves the code an assistant produces.
Setup
npx -y @pinecone-database/mcp with PINECONE_API_KEY set. Works with serverless and pod-based indexes.
