The Claude Code plugin version of Pinecone's quickstart skill, invoked as /pinecone:quickstart.
What the skill teaches
The Claude Code plugin version of Pinecone's quickstart skill, invoked as /pinecone:quickstart. It offers a database path, which creates a document index with integrated embedding, adds sample documents and searches them by meaning and by exact terms through the MCP server or bundled Python scripts, and an assistant path that hands over to the plugin's assistant skill for document questions with citations. The plugin build uses Claude Code's question tool for choices and its own script paths; the steps otherwise match pinecone-quickstart in Pinecone's skills repository.
Capabilities
- Create a Pinecone document index and search sample documents
- Fall back to bundled Python scripts when the MCP server is missing
- Set up a Pinecone Assistant through the assistant skill
Install
