What the skill teaches
The Claude Code plugin build of Pinecone's assistant skill, invoked as /pinecone:assistant. Through bundled Python scripts run with uv, the agent can create a Pinecone Assistant, upload a folder of files, keep the assistant in step with that folder, ask it questions and get cited answers, fetch context snippets and list assistants and their files. Compared with the original in pinecone-io/skills, the scripts and wording are adapted for Claude Code, for example the API key notes and how choices are put to the user. It needs a Pinecone API key and uv.
