Enables AI agents to inspect Pinecone vector database indexes, query vectors, manage collections, and debug retrieval behavior. Useful for teams using vector search in RAG applications who want to understand index statistics and optimize similarity search performance.
Use cases
- ML engineer inspects index statistics to diagnose poor retrieval quality
- Developer queries vectors to verify embeddings were upserted correctly
- DBA reviews collection configurations for archiving old vector data
- QA agent validates RAG pipeline by fetching similar results manually
- Architect evaluates index scaling based on dimension and pod usage stats
Key features
- Claude Desktop
- Cursor
- VS Code
Frequently Asked Questions
- What Pinecone tier is required for MCP access?
- MCP is available on Starter tier and above. Serverless indexes have limited metadata access. Check Pinecone documentation for your specific plan's capabilities.
- Can agents query vectors for similarity search?
- Yes, agents can run query operations to find similar vectors using cosine, dot product, or Euclidean distance metrics depending on your index configuration.
- Does it support metadata filtering?
- Yes, agents can use metadata filters in queries if your index is configured with sparse-raw indexes or supports structured metadata filtering.

Postgres MCP
Enables AI agents to execute read-only SQL queries against PostgreSQL databases, inspect table schemas, and analyze query performance. Agents can debug data issues or prepare analytics without requiring direct database credentials in the conversation. Supports connection pooling and multiple database targets.
MongoDB MCP
Allows AI agents to run queries, inspect collections, execute aggregation pipelines, and analyze explain plans against MongoDB clusters. Debug document models and performance issues by having the agent explore data structures directly. Supports MongoDB Atlas federated queries and Atlas Search.
Supabase MCP
Connects agents to Supabase projects for table inspection, Edge Function debugging, database triggers, and real-time subscriptions. Agents can inspect RLS policies, view logs, and manage database types without the Supabase dashboard. Supports both hosted and self-hosted Supabase instances.
