Suppose that $(X,\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})$ is a compact Kähler manifold. In the present work we propose a construction for weak geodesic rays in the space of Kähler potentials that is tied together with properties of the class ${\mathcal{E}}(X,\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})$. As an application of our construction, we prove a characterization of ${\mathcal{E}}(X,\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})$ in terms of envelopes.
