Pinecone MCP
Connect AI agents to Pinecone vector databases
About Pinecone MCP
The official Pinecone MCP server lets AI agents and coding assistants perform vector database operations directly — searching documentation, describing index stats, creating indexes, and running semantic search for RAG. Available as a managed remote endpoint or a self-hosted local server.
Pinecone MCP is a Vector Database MCP server designed for developers and AI power users. It enables extending AI assistants with real-world capabilities by exposing a structured set of tools over the Model Context Protocol. Key capabilities include standards-based mcp server interface, works with claude, gpt, gemini, and other mcp clients, tool discovery and structured outputs, and structured tool calls that work cleanly inside an LLM context. It integrates with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client, and is best suited for developers and AI power users who need ai engineers wiring assistants into real tools.
