graph init through schema design, manifest configuration, AssemblyScript mappings, codegen, build, and deployment to Subgraph Studio. - GraphQL Querying: Provides query patterns including filtering, cursor-based pagination, time-travel queries, and full-text search against deployed subgraphs. - Indexing Optimization: Documents immutable entities, Bytes IDs, startBlock tuning, pruning, and contract read caching to reduce indexing time and storage. - Use Case: A developer needs to index USDC Transfer events on Ethereum mainnet and expose token balances via a GraphQL API; this Skill provides the schema, manifest, AssemblyScript handlers, and deployment commands to ship it. ## Quick Start Use the the-graph skill to create a subgraph that indexes Transfer events for my ERC-20 contract and deploy it to Subgraph Studio.High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Run graph init to scaffold the project, define entities in schema.graphql, configure subgraph.yaml, write AssemblyScript handlers, then run graph codegen and graph build. Authenticate with graph auth --studio and deploy using graph deploy --studio with a version label.
Send a POST request with a GraphQL query to the gateway endpoint at gateway.thegraph.com with your API key and subgraph ID. Use first, skip, orderBy, and where filters; for large datasets use cursor-based pagination with id_gt since skip is capped at 5000.
No, the hosted service is deprecated and stopped serving queries in Q2 2024. All deployments must use Subgraph Studio, and any documentation referencing the old --node api.thegraph.com/deploy endpoint is outdated.
Mappings are AssemblyScript, not TypeScript, so closures, optional chaining, Array.map, try/catch, and async/await are unsupported. Also run graph codegen before graph build, since imports from the generated directory fail without it.
A deterministic error in a handler, such as a null dereference, division by zero, or a non-try contract call that reverted, halts indexing permanently. Check Studio logs, fix the handler logic, and redeploy a new version.
