The contextualization workflow will run automatically on this branch to adapt these skills for this IDE. Review both the raw sync and Claude's adaptations before merging.

Contextualization Summary

Changes made

All 7 SKILL.md files — updated YAML frontmatter name field to match folder name (stripped pinecone- prefix):

• pinecone-assistant → assistant
• pinecone-cli → cli
• pinecone-docs → docs
• pinecone-help → help
• pinecone-mcp → mcp
• pinecone-query → query
• pinecone-quickstart → quickstart

skills/docs/SKILL.md — Removed "Claude Code" from the quickstart docs link description (Cursor-only plugin context).

skills/help/SKILL.md — Updated all skill name references in the "Available Skills" table and "Which skill should I use?" section from pinecone-* to unprefixed names (e.g. pinecone-quickstart → quickstart).

skills/query/SKILL.md — Updated reference from pinecone-help skill to help.

skills/quickstart/SKILL.md — Updated all pinecone-assistant references to assistant (skill invocation names and script paths like ../pinecone-assistant/scripts/ → ../assistant/scripts/).

Directory renames — Moved all skill content from skills/pinecone-* into the existing skills/* placeholder directories and removed the prefixed directories.

Intentionally left unchanged

• All .py scripts in scripts/ directories — untouched per policy.
• All reference .md files (references/chat.md, references/command-reference.md, references/data-formats.md, etc.) — no Claude-specific references or source attribution tags found; content is already platform-neutral.
• argument-hint frontmatter field in cli/SKILL.md and query/SKILL.md — not part of the required Cursor plugin schema (name + description) but harmless extra metadata; left as-is.
• pinecone-io/tap and pinecone-io/cli references in CLI skill — these are Pinecone product repos (not plugin repos), so they are correct and unchanged.
• .cursor-plugin/plugin.json — not modified per instructions.

Submission checklist validation

Check	Status
.cursor-plugin/plugin.json exists and is valid JSON	✅
Plugin name is lowercase kebab-case (pinecone)	✅
Plugin description clearly explains purpose	✅
All skills have proper frontmatter (name + description)	✅ (7/7)
All skill name values match folder names	✅ (7/7)
All rules (.mdc files) have proper frontmatter	✅ N/A (no .mdc files exist)
All commands have proper frontmatter	✅ N/A (no commands exist)
All paths in manifests are relative	✅

Recommendations for reviewer

1. Existing placeholder directories had .gitkeep files — these are now alongside the real content. Consider removing .gitkeep files from dirs that now have content (e.g. skills/assistant/.gitkeep, skills/assistant/references/.gitkeep, etc.) in a follow-up cleanup.

2. argument-hint in frontmatter — cli/SKILL.md and query/SKILL.md include an argument-hint field that isn't part of the standard Cursor plugin skill schema. Verify if Cursor ignores unknown frontmatter fields or if these should be removed.

3. Empty rules/ and commands/ directories — These exist with only .gitkeep files. If the plugin doesn't use rules or commands yet, this is fine. If any incoming skills overlap with future rules/commands, flag those for coordination.
