What it connects to
Unverified means a mention in the skill’s own description, not a citation. A wrong claim here costs nothing to correct and nothing to trust yet.
Maintenance
Query integrated indexes using text with Pinecone MCP. IMPORTANT - This skill ONLY works with integrated indexes (indexes with built-in Pinecone embedding models like multilingual-e5-large). For standard indexes or advanced vector operations, use the pinecone-cli skill instead. Requires PINECONE_API_KEY environment variable and Pinecone MCP server to be configured.
