Pinecone Research — Agent RAG & Long-Term Memory
Use Pinecone as a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) backend for agent conversations: persist embeddings, retrieve relevant context from past sessions, and build long-term memory.When to use this skill
Use when:- Building agent RAG pipelines with Pinecone as the vector store
- Need persistent long-term memory across agent sessions
- Combining retrieval with agent tool use
- Researching or prototyping semantic search workflows
- Need a general Pinecone reference (index management, CRUD, hybrid search)
- Working on production infrastructure without agent integration
Quick start
Setup
Basic RAG pipeline
Namespace-based session memory
Best practices
- Namespace by session or user — isolate data for multi-tenant agents
- Batch upserts — 100–200 vectors per batch for efficiency
- Metadata filtering — tag vectors with session ID, timestamp, topic
- Prune old memory — delete stale namespaces to control costs
- Use serverless — auto-scaling, pay-per-use pricing
