Building a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Application with MCP, Gemini, and ChromaDB in Node.js
Building a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Application with MCP, Gemini, and ChromaDB in Node.js Introduction Large Language Models (LLMs) such as Gemini, GPT, and Claude are powerful, but they have one important limitation—they only know what they were trained on and the information provided in the prompt. Suppose your company has an internal document containing leave policies, HR rules, medical policies, or confidential project documentation. If you ask an LLM a question about those documents, it may not know the answer because that information was never part of its training data. This is where Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) becomes useful. Instead of training a new model, RAG retrieves the most relevant information from your own documents and supplies it to the LLM before generating the final answer. In this project, we build a complete RAG application using: Node.js Google Gemini API ChromaDB (Vector Database) npm install chromadb Model Context...
