Connects AI agents to ChromaDB vector databases for semantic search and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) workflows. Supports creating collections, upserting documents with embeddings, querying by semantic similarity, and managing metadata filters. Ideal for knowledge base and document retrieval applications.
MCP server for the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform. Enables AI agents to run SQL against the Unity Catalog, inspect schemas and tables, and manage and monitor jobs, bringing lakehouse data and workflows into AI-powered development tools.
Pinecone's official MCP server connects AI assistants to Pinecone vector databases for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows. Lets agents create and configure indexes, upsert and embed documents, and run semantic searches over vector data — all from natural language, without leaving the editor or chat.
Skills vs MCP servers
what's the difference?Skillsthe “what to do”
A skillA reusable, structured prompt/workflow with recommended models, an example prompt, and compatible tools. packages know-how — instructions, an example promptA ready-to-use prompt template that demonstrates how to invoke the skill., and recommended models — so an agent performs a task consistently. Skills add knowledge, not new connections.
MCP serversthe “how to connect”
An MCP serverModel Context Protocol server — a standard way to expose tools, resources, and prompts to AI agents and IDEs. gives an agent new capabilities by connecting it to real systems (databases, APIs, files) over a transportHow the client talks to the server: stdio (local process), SSE, or HTTP streaming.. MCP adds connections and actions, not task instructions.
Rule of thumb: reach for a skill when you need the model to do a task well, and an MCP server when you need it to reach a tool or system. They compose — a skill can rely on tools an MCP server provides.
