+# Weaviate
+
+EmbedFlow's Weaviate backend (tested with `weaviate-client` 4.23.1 and
+Weaviate 1.30.6) reads an existing, externally vectorized dense collection.
+It retrieves candidates with the v4 `near_vector` API, reranks them with the
+target model, and progressively materializes target vectors in EmbedFlow's
+local cache. It does not create, update, delete, batch-import, or re-vectorize
+objects in the source collection.
+
+## Install and connect
+
+```bash
+python -m pip install "embedflow[weaviate]"
+```
+
+The local v4 client needs both HTTP and gRPC. A standard Docker deployment
+exposes HTTP 8080 and gRPC 50051:
+
+```bash
+cd examples/weaviate
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+Configuration uses a URI or explicit host/port fields:
+
+```yaml
+index:
+  backend: weaviate
+  uri: http://127.0.0.1:8080
+  http_port: 8080
+  grpc_host: 127.0.0.1
+  grpc_port: 50051
+  collection: Documents
+  vector_name: default
+  text_property: content
+  metric: cosine
+  api_key_env: WEAVIATE_API_KEY
+```
+
+For a custom or cloud-compatible endpoint set `http_host`, `http_port`,
+`grpc_host`, `grpc_port`, `secure`, and `grpc_secure` as appropriate. Keep the
+credential out of YAML:
+
+```bash
+export WEAVIATE_API_KEY='your-key'
+embedflow doctor --config ./embedflow.yaml
+```
+
+Cloud connections use the same v4 URI/token conventions. This release has
+validated local standalone Weaviate, not an independently operated Weaviate
+Cloud cluster.
+
+## Collection contract
+
+The selected collection must contain a dense, externally supplied vector. Set
+`vector_name` for named-vector collections; if more than one vector exists and
+the name is omitted, EmbedFlow fails rather than guessing. `cosine`, `dot` (or
+`inner_product`), and `l2`/`euclidean` are supported. Weaviate's distance is
+converted to EmbedFlow's larger-is-better score convention (`-distance`), so
+rank order remains the server's rank order.
+
+Weaviate objects use UUIDs. EmbedFlow preserves their canonical string form;
+it does not generate IDs during reads. The source model dimension must match
+the existing vector index. Weaviate versions that do not expose dimensionality
+in collection configuration report the value as unverified and the server
+still validates each query vector.
+
+For text, choose one of these modes:
+
+* `text_property: content` requests only that property with each candidate and
+  validates that it is a string.
+* Provide the normal EmbedFlow JSONL `documents` store. Candidate queries then
+  request no Weaviate properties and the shared document store resolves text.
+
+The adapter requests no stored vector payload. `tenant` can bind a configured
+multi-tenant collection to one tenant; an omitted tenant never selects one
+implicitly.
+
+## Audit and operations
+
+```bash
+embedflow audit-index --config ./embedflow.yaml
+embedflow analyze --config ./embedflow.yaml
+embedflow serve --config ./embedflow.yaml --device cuda
+```
+
+`doctor` and `audit-index` report readiness, collection/vector configuration,
+metric, object count, tenant, and text resolution. Reachability is reported
+separately from candidate compatibility and ANN fidelity; a healthy server is
+not evidence that a model migration is scientifically safe. `client.close()`
+is called when a one-shot command or serving session shuts down.
+
+## Read-only and troubleshooting
+
+The production adapter uses only collection lookup/config, `near_vector`,
+batched property lookup, iteration, and aggregate counts. Fixture creation and
+batch writes live only in `scripts/weaviate_fixture.py` and tests. Do not point
+fixture setup at a user collection.
+
+* `Weaviate support requires ...`: install the optional extra in the active
+  environment.
+* HTTP works but startup says gRPC is unavailable: expose 50051 and set
+  `grpc_host`/`grpc_port` correctly; v4 search uses gRPC.
+* `vector_name ... was not found` or multiple-vector errors: inspect the
+  collection schema and configure the exact name.
+* Dimension or metric mismatch: use the source model contract and the
+  collection's configured distance metric.
+* Missing/invalid text: fix `text_property` or use an external document store.
+
+The adapter does not expose arbitrary Weaviate filters or index-tuning writes.
+HNSW configuration is introspected read-only. Integrated Weaviate vectorizers
+are not treated as the EmbedFlow source model unless their contract is
+independently verified; this release focuses on externally vectorized dense
+collections.
