Weaviate Cookbooks

Overview

This skill provides an index of implementation guides and foundational requirements for building Weaviate-powered AI applications. Use the references to quickly scaffold full-stack applications with best practices for connection management, environment setup, and application architecture.

Weaviate Cloud Instance

If the user does not have an instance yet, direct them to the cloud console to register and create a free sandbox. Create a Weaviate instance via Weaviate Cloud.

Before Building Any Cookbook

Follow these shared guidelines before generating any cookbook app:
  • Project Setup Contract
  • Environment Requirements
Then proceed to the specific cookbook reference below.

Cookbook Index

  • Query Agent Chatbot: Build a full-stack chatbot using Weaviate Query Agent with streaming and chat history support.
  • Data Explorer: Build a full-stack data explorer app including sorting, keyword search and tabular view of weaviate data.
  • Multimodal RAG: Building Document Search: Build a multimodal Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system using Weaviate Embeddings (ModernVBERT/colmodernvbert) and Ollama with Qwen3-VL for generation.
  • Basic RAG: Implement basic retrieval and generation with Weaviate. Useful for most forms of data retrieval from a Weaviate collection.
  • Advanced RAG: Improve on basic RAG by adding extra features such as re-ranking, query decomposition, query re-writing, LLM filter selection.
  • Basic Agent: Build a tool-calling AI agent with structured outputs using DSPy. Covers AgentResponse signatures, RouterAgent, tool design, and sequential multi-step loops.
  • Agentic RAG: Build RAG-powered AI agents with Weaviate. Covers naive RAG tools, hierarchical RAG with LLM-created filters, vector DB memory, Weaviate Query Agent, and Elysia integration.

Interface (Optional)

Use this when the user explicitly asks for a frontend for their Weaviate backend.
  • Frontend Interface: Build a Next.js frontend to interact with the Weaviate backend.
