# G27 GraphRAG and owned corpus retrieval graph

## Question

Can an assistant retrieve connected facts and their original supporting passages?

## Nodes

Entity; Relationship candidate; Text unit; Community; Summary; Source version

## Relationship sketch

* entity → original text
* community → member entity
* summary → supporting records

## Evidence inputs

Authorized corpus, extraction outputs, source text, evaluation set, permitted access labels.

## Implementation

Pilot graph assisted retrieval beside lexical and vector baselines. Treat extracted edges and generated summaries as candidates until reviewed; return original evidence and scope limitations.

## Acceptance checks

* Retrieved claims link back to original passages
* Privacy filtering happens before retrieval output
* Held out evaluation compares quality, latency, and cost

## Do not infer

Installing GraphRAG does not make public search engines ingest your graph or train their models.

## Publication boundary

Private retrieval by default; only separately approved exports public.

## Source basis

[S24](https://library.feedthejoe.com/graph-systems/primary-source-register/#S24), [S25](https://library.feedthejoe.com/graph-systems/primary-source-register/#S25). See Research/sources.json. Sources support the primitives or named technology. The organization, labels, actions, and acceptance contracts in this catalog are this library's design, not claimed provider requirements.
