## From README

Pinecone n8n Workflow Skill This skill helps you build n8n workflows with Pinecone nodes following best practices. It covers two Pinecone nodes: Pinecone Assistant (@pinecone-database/n8n-nodes-pinecone-assistant) — recommended for most use cases Pinecone Vector Store (@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.vectorStorePinecone) — for advanced control Core rule: Always use the node's built-in resources and operations. Never suggest using the HTTP node to call the Pinecone REST API directly. --- Step 1: Understand the user's scenario Ask the user what they're trying to do: Build a new workflow from scratch Configure or understand a specific Pinecone node Debug a workflow that isn't working Review an existing workflow for best practices --- Step 2: Node selection (for new workflows and configuration questions) Always present the Pinecone Assistant node as the recommended choice first.
