Conversation
- release-history.md: add the 1.38.x compatibility row (first release 2026-06-05, Python client 4.22.x; other clients to be filled in), and move 1.33.x down into the older-releases table. - release-notes/index.md: add the v1.38 quick-link card. - WeaviateConfigurator: auto-pull the weaviate_version dropdown's latest option from versions-config.json (the same source as ||site.weaviate_version||) and select it by default, so it tracks the latest patch instead of a hardcoded value; the older versions remain selectable below. - versions-config.json: bump the local python client default to 4.22.0.

Auto-derive the latest patch of the three most recent Weaviate minors (e.g. 1.38.2 / 1.37.11 / 1.36.19) for the version dropdown, instead of only the single latest patch. - update-config-versions.js: add getRecentMinorVersions (via a shared fetchReleaseVersions helper) and write weaviate_recent_versions to the config at build; getRepoVersion is unchanged. - versions-config.json: add the weaviate_recent_versions default. - WeaviateConfigurator: build the version dropdown from that array, with the newest selected by default; falls back to the single weaviate_version if the array is absent.

Pull request overview
Updates documentation surfaces to reflect the Weaviate 1.38 release and adjusts build/runtime config so the Docker configurator can default to the latest patch automatically.
Changes:
- Adds Weaviate 1.38.x to the compatibility table and moves 1.33.x into the “Older releases” section.
- Adds a v1.38 quick-link card to the release notes index.
- Extends the version update script + configurator to source the latest patch versions from
versions-config.json(via a newweaviate_recent_versionslist), and bumps the local Python client default.

Make the auto-fetched weaviate_recent_versions the primary source for the version dropdown and parameters.json's static options the fallback (used only when the fetched array is absent), instead of replacing them. The options and the default selection resolve from the same source so they stay in sync.

Summary
Weaviate 1.38.0 went GA on 2026-06-05 (latest patch 1.38.2), but several docs surfaces still stopped at 1.37. This rolls 1.38 across them, and makes the Docker configurator's version list self-maintaining.
Changes
_includes/release-history.md): add the1.38.xrow (first release 2026-06-05, Python client4.22.x; TypeScript/Go/Java/C# left as-for now), and move1.33.xinto the older-releases table so the main table stays at ~5 rows.docs/weaviate/release-notes/index.md): add thev1.38quick-link card.WeaviateConfigurator): theweaviate_versiondropdown now lists the latest patch of the supported latest-3 minors (e.g. 1.38.2 / 1.37.11 / 1.36.19), newest selected by default. These are auto-derived at build:update-config-versions.jscomputes the top-3-minors' latest patches from GitHub releases and writesweaviate_recent_versionsintoversions-config.json— the same prebuild path that powers||site.weaviate_version||.parameters.json's static option list is the fallback, used only if the array is absent. So the dropdown tracks each release automatically and needs no manual updates.versions-config.json: add theweaviate_recent_versionsdefault and bump the local Python client /weaviate_versiondefaults to match the current latest (production overwrites these via the fetch at build).Notes
yarn buildpasses; the release-notes card and compatibility row render; and (via Playwright) the configurator listsv1.38.2 / v1.37.11 / v1.36.19with the newest default andweaviate:1.38.2in the generated compose, falling back to the static option list when the fetched array is unavailable.
