pinecone-claude-code-plugin

The Pinecone Claude Code Plugin connects Pinecone's vector database directly to Claude Code, enabling semantic search, index management, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows. It provides slash commands for quick access to common operations, natural language query support, and a fully managed Pinecone Assistant for document Q&A with citations. The plugin includes the full Pinecone MCP Server, allowing you to create indexes, list resources, search records, upsert data, and apply reranking—all without leaving your IDE. Teams building document retrieval systems, knowledge bases, or information-heavy applications can streamline data indexing and querying. Installation requires setting a Pinecone API key and, for Assistant features, the uv Python package manager.

["Install the Pinecone Claude Code Plugin in your Claude Code environment using `pip install pinecone-client` and authenticate with your Pinecone API key.","Specify the Pinecone index name in your prompt (e.g., '[INDEX_NAME]') and define the operation (e.g., 'query', 'upsert', 'delete', or 'describe_index_stats').","Include additional context for the operation, such as vector embeddings, metadata filters, or top_k values for queries.","For RAG workflows, use the plugin to fetch relevant documents before generating responses in Claude Code.","Review the output for accuracy and refine your query or embeddings if results are not as expected. Use the `include_metadata=True` flag to get contextual information for downstream tasks."]
