# Pinecone Assistant MCP Server An MCP server implementation for retrieving information from Pinecone Assistant. ## Features - Retrieves information from Pinecone Assistant - Supports multiple results retrieval with a configurable number of results ## Prerequisites - Docker installed on your system - Pinecone API key - obtain from the [Pinecone Console](https://app.pinecone.io) - Pinecone Assistant API host - after creating an Assistant (e.g. in Pinecone Console), you can find the host in the Assistant details page ## Building with Docker To build the Docker image: ```sh docker build -t pinecone/assistant-mcp . ``` ## Running with Docker Run the server with your Pinecone API key: ```sh docker run -i --rm \ -e PINECONE_API_KEY=<YOUR_PINECONE_API_KEY_HERE> \ -e PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST=<YOUR_PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST_HERE> \ pinecone/assistant-mcp ``` ### Environment Variables - `PINECONE_API_KEY` (required): Your Pinecone API key - `PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST` (optional): Pinecone Assistant API host (default: https://prod-1-data.ke.pinecone.io) - `LOG_LEVEL` (optional): Logging level (default: info) ## Usage with Claude Desktop Add this to your `claude_desktop_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "pinecone-assistant": { "command": "docker", "args": [ "run", "-i", "--rm", "-e", "PINECONE_API_KEY", "-e", "PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST", "pinecone/assistant-mcp" ], "env": { "PINECONE_API_KEY": "<YOUR_PINECONE_API_KEY_HERE>", "PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST": "<YOUR_PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST_HERE>" } } } } ``` ## Building from Source If you prefer to build from source without Docker: 1. Make sure you have Rust installed (https://rustup.rs/) 2. Clone this repository 3. Run `cargo build --release` 4. The binary will be available at `target/release/assistant-mcp` ### Testing with the inspector ```sh export PINECONE_API_KEY=<YOUR_PINECONE_API_KEY_HERE> export PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST=<YOUR_PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST_HERE> # Run the inspector alone npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector cargo run # Or run with Docker directly through the inspector npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector -- docker run -i --rm -e PINECONE_API_KEY -e PINECONE_ASSISTANT_HOST pinecone/assistant-mcp ``` ## License This project is licensed under the terms specified in the LICENSE file.
