Reference for the Pinecone MCP server tools. Documents all available tools - list-indexes, describe-index, describe-index-stats, create-index-for-model, upsert-records, search-records, cascading-search, and rerank-documents. Use when an agent needs to understand what Pinecone MCP tools are available, how to use them, or what parameters they accept.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Pinecone MCP Tools Reference The Pinecone MCP server exposes the following tools to AI agents and IDEs. For setup and installation instructions, see the [MCP server guide](https://docs.pinecone.io/guides/operations/mcp-server#tools). > **Key Limitation:** The Pinecone MCP only supports **integrated indexes** — indexes created with a built-in Pinecone embedding model. It does not work with standard indexes using external embedding models. For those, use the Pinecone CLI. --- ## `list-indexes` List all indexes in the current Pinecone project. --- ## `describe-index` Get configuration details for a specific index — cloud, region, dimension, metric, embedding model, field map, and status. **Parameters:** - `name` (required) — Index name --- ## `describe-index-stats` Get statistics for an index including total record count and per-namespace breakdown. **Parameters:** - `name` (required) — Index name --- ## `create-index-for-model` Create a new serverless index with an integrated embedding model. Pinecone handles embedding automatically — no external model needed. **Parameters:** - `name` (required) — Index name - `cloud` (required) — `aws`, `gcp`, or `azure` …

How to install
mdr add pinecone-io/pinecone-cursor-plugin/pinecone-mcp@sha256:4a091fac036c2940The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260513.6f34a13, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
