What Journey RAG does

Journey RAG creates RAG collections and ingests seed documents as stage 3g of the Butterbase guided journey. Use it when the plan includes a knowledge base and you need to prepare retrieval data and verify it with a smoke query.

Journey RAG is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Journey RAG comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, ai-agents, backend-as-a-service, butterbase and claude.

Documentation

README

Journey: RAG

Stage 3g of the guided journey. Create RAG collections and ingest initial documents.

When to use

  • Dispatched by journey when current_stage: rag.
  • Directly via /butterbase-skills:journey-rag.
  • Skipped (annotated (n/a)) if the plan has no RAG section.

Preflight

If docs/butterbase/03-preflight.md is missing, older than 24 hours, or 00-state.md has app_id: null, invoke butterbase-skills:journey-preflight first. Wait for it to return successfully before proceeding.

Inputs

  • docs/butterbase/02-plan.md — the RAG section.
  • docs/butterbase/00-state.md — for app_id.

Procedure

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
