# IMPORTANT: Post-Edit Pipeline Requirement
# After any file modification (Write, Edit, or any code change), you MUST invoke the post-edit pipeline:
#   ./.claude/hooks/cfn-invoke-post-edit.sh "$FILE_PATH" --agent-id "$AGENT_ID"
# This is mandatory for all file edits to ensure code quality and validation.
# The pipeline will run compilation checks and TDD compliance verification.

# IMPORTANT: CodeSearch Semantic Search (Before Making Changes)
# Before implementing any changes, ALWAYS query the codebase for similar patterns:
#   /codebase-search "relevant search terms for your task" --top 5
#   /codebase-search "error pattern or issue you're fixing" --top 3
# Also query past errors and learnings:
#   ./.claude/skills/cfn-codesearch/query-agent-patterns.sh --task-description "Your task description"
#   ./.claude/skills/cfn-codesearch/query-agent-patterns.sh --task-description "Your task description"
# This prevents duplicated work and leverages existing solutions.

> **Skills**:  CodeSearch (semantic search) | Post-edit hook (file validation)

## Technical Expertise

### Memgraph Setup

```bash
# Docker setup (recommended)
docker run -p 7687:7687 -p 7444:7444 \
  --name memgraph \
  -v memgraph-data:/var/lib/memgraph \
  memgraph/memgraph-platform

# Or with MAGE algorithms
docker run -p 7687:7687 -p 7444:7444 \
  --name memgraph-mage \
  memgraph/memgraph-mage

# Access Memgraph Lab (UI)
# Open http://localhost:3000

# Connect via mgconsole
docker exec -it memgraph mgconsole
```

### Python Client (GQLAlchemy)

```python
from gqlalchemy import Memgraph, Node, Relationship, Field
from typing import Optional

# Connect to Memgraph
db = Memgraph(host="127.0.0.1", port=7687)

# Define node models with GQLAlchemy ORM
class User(Node):
    id: int = Field(index=True, unique=True)
    name: str = Field(index=True)
    email: str = Field(unique=True)
    created_at: Optional[str] = Field()

class Product(Node):
    id: int = Field(index=True, unique=True)
    name: str = Field(index=True)
    price: float
    category: str = Field(index=True)

class PURCHASED(Relationship, type="PURCHASED"):
    quantity: int
    purchased_at: str

class FOLLOWS(Relationship, type="FOLLOWS"):
    since: str

# Save nodes
user = User(id=1, name="Alice", email="alice@example.com").save(db)
product = Product(id=101, name="Laptop", price=999.99, category="Electronics").save(db)

# Create relationships
user.purchased.add(product, quantity=1, purchased_at="2025-01-01")
```

### Cypher Queries

```cypher
// Create nodes
CREATE (u:User {id: 1, name: 'Alice', email: 'alice@example.com'})
CREATE (p:Product {id: 101, name: 'Laptop', price: 999.99, category: 'Electronics'})

// Create relationships
MATCH (u:User {id: 1}), (p:Product {id: 101})
CREATE (u)-[:PURCHASED {quantity: 1, purchased_at: '2025-01-01'}]->(p)

// Create indexes for performance
CREATE INDEX ON :User(id);
CREATE INDEX ON :User(name);
CREATE INDEX ON :Product(id);
CREATE INDEX ON :Product(category);

// Unique constraints
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (u:User) ASSERT u.email IS UNIQUE;

// Query patterns
// Find all products purchased by a user
MATCH (u:User {name: 'Alice'})-[:PURCHASED]->(p:Product)
RETURN p.name, p.price;

// Find users who purchased the same products
MATCH (u1:User)-[:PURCHASED]->(p:Product)<-[:PURCHASED]-(u2:User)
WHERE u1.id < u2.id
RETURN u1.name, u2.name, p.name;

// Path finding - shortest path between users
MATCH path = shortestPath((u1:User {name: 'Alice'})-[*]-(u2:User {name: 'Bob'}))
RETURN path;

// All paths with depth limit
MATCH path = (u1:User {name: 'Alice'})-[*1..5]-(u2:User {name: 'Bob'})
RETURN path;
```

### Graph Traversal Patterns

```cypher
// Find friends of friends (2-hop)
MATCH (u:User {name: 'Alice'})-[:FOLLOWS]->()-[:FOLLOWS]->(fof:User)
WHERE fof.name <> 'Alice'
RETURN DISTINCT fof.name;

// Variable length paths
MATCH (u:User {name: 'Alice'})-[:FOLLOWS*1..3]->(connected:User)
RETURN DISTINCT connected.name,
       length(shortestPath((u)-[:FOLLOWS*]-(connected))) as distance;

// Aggregate by relationship count
MATCH (u:User)-[r:PURCHASED]->()
RETURN u.name, count(r) as purchase_count
ORDER BY purchase_count DESC
LIMIT 10;

// Pattern matching with conditions
MATCH (u:User)-[p:PURCHASED]->(prod:Product)
WHERE p.quantity > 1 AND prod.price > 100
RETURN u.name, prod.name, p.quantity, prod.price * p.quantity as total;
```

### MAGE Graph Algorithms

```cypher
// PageRank for user influence
CALL pagerank.get()
YIELD node, rank
WHERE node:User
RETURN node.name, rank
ORDER BY rank DESC
LIMIT 10;

// Community detection (Louvain)
CALL community_detection.get()
YIELD node, community_id
WHERE node:User
RETURN community_id, collect(node.name) as members
ORDER BY size(members) DESC;

// Betweenness centrality
CALL betweenness_centrality.get()
YIELD node, betweenness
WHERE node:User
RETURN node.name, betweenness
ORDER BY betweenness DESC
LIMIT 10;

// Weakly connected components
CALL weakly_connected_components.get()
YIELD node, component_id
RETURN component_id, count(node) as size
ORDER BY size DESC;

// Node similarity (Jaccard)
CALL node_similarity.jaccard()
YIELD node1, node2, similarity
WHERE similarity > 0.5
RETURN node1.name, node2.name, similarity
ORDER BY similarity DESC;
```

### Custom MAGE Modules (Python)

```python
# custom_module.py - Place in /mage/query_modules/
import mgp

@mgp.read_proc
def recommend_products(
    ctx: mgp.ProcCtx,
    user_id: int
) -> mgp.Record(product_name=str, score=float):
    """Recommend products based on similar users' purchases."""

    query = """
    MATCH (u:User {id: $user_id})-[:PURCHASED]->(p1:Product)
    MATCH (other:User)-[:PURCHASED]->(p1)
    MATCH (other)-[:PURCHASED]->(p2:Product)
    WHERE NOT (u)-[:PURCHASED]->(p2) AND u <> other
    RETURN p2.name as name, count(*) as score
    ORDER BY score DESC
    LIMIT 10
    """

    results = ctx.graph.execute(query, {"user_id": user_id})

    for result in results:
        yield mgp.Record(
            product_name=result["name"],
            score=float(result["score"])
        )

@mgp.write_proc
def bulk_create_users(
    ctx: mgp.ProcCtx,
    users: mgp.List[mgp.Map]
) -> mgp.Record(created_count=int):
    """Bulk create user nodes."""

    created = 0
    for user_data in users:
        query = "CREATE (u:User {id: $id, name: $name, email: $email})"
        ctx.graph.execute(query, user_data)
        created += 1

    return mgp.Record(created_count=created)
```

### Streaming Integration (Kafka)

```cypher
// Create Kafka stream
CREATE STREAM purchase_stream
ON TOPIC 'purchases'
USING KAFKA
AS
TRANSFORM kafka_to_purchase;

// Start stream
START STREAM purchase_stream;

// Check stream status
SHOW STREAMS;

// Transformation procedure
@mgp.transformation
def kafka_to_purchase(messages: mgp.Messages) -> mgp.Record(query=str, parameters=mgp.Map):
    """Transform Kafka messages to Cypher queries."""

    for msg in messages:
        payload = json.loads(msg.payload().decode('utf-8'))

        query = """
        MATCH (u:User {id: $user_id})
        MATCH (p:Product {id: $product_id})
        CREATE (u)-[:PURCHASED {
            quantity: $quantity,
            purchased_at: $timestamp
        }]->(p)
        """

        yield mgp.Record(
            query=query,
            parameters=mgp.Map({
                "user_id": payload["user_id"],
                "product_id": payload["product_id"],
                "quantity": payload["quantity"],
                "timestamp": payload["timestamp"]
            })
        )
```

### Triggers for Event-Driven Processing

```cypher
// Create trigger for new purchases
CREATE TRIGGER purchase_notification
ON CREATE AFTER COMMIT
EXECUTE CALL notification.send_purchase_alert(createdVertices, createdEdges);

// Trigger for fraud detection
CREATE TRIGGER fraud_check
ON CREATE BEFORE COMMIT
EXECUTE CALL fraud.check_transaction(createdVertices, createdEdges);
```

### Python Integration Patterns

```python
from gqlalchemy import Memgraph

        """Get product recommendations for a user."""
        query = """
        MATCH (u:User {id: $user_id})-[:PURCHASED]->(p1:Product)

            }
            for r in results
        }
```

### Knowledge Graph Patterns

```cypher
// Create knowledge graph schema
CREATE (e:Entity {id: 'entity_1', name: 'OpenAI', type: 'Organization'})
CREATE (e2:Entity {id: 'entity_2', name: 'GPT-4', type: 'Product'})
CREATE (e3:Entity {id: 'entity_3', name: 'Sam Altman', type: 'Person'})

// Relationships with properties
CREATE (e)-[:PRODUCES {since: '2020'}]->(e2)
CREATE (e3)-[:CEO_OF {since: '2019'}]->(e)
CREATE (e3)-[:ANNOUNCED {date: '2023-03-14'}]->(e2)

// Query knowledge graph
MATCH (org:Entity {type: 'Organization'})-[r]->(product:Entity {type: 'Product'})
RETURN org.name, type(r), product.name;

// Find all connections for an entity
MATCH (e:Entity {name: 'OpenAI'})-[r]-(connected)
RETURN type(r), connected.name, connected.type;

// Subgraph extraction
MATCH path = (start:Entity {name: 'Sam Altman'})-[*1..3]-(end:Entity)
RETURN path;
```

## Schema Design Patterns

### E-commerce Graph

```cypher
// Users, Products, Orders
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (u:User) ASSERT u.id IS UNIQUE;
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (p:Product) ASSERT p.id IS UNIQUE;
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (o:Order) ASSERT o.id IS UNIQUE;
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (c:Category) ASSERT c.name IS UNIQUE;

CREATE INDEX ON :Product(name);
CREATE INDEX ON :Product(price);

// Relationships
// (User)-[:PURCHASED {timestamp, quantity}]->(Product)
// (User)-[:VIEWED {timestamp}]->(Product)
// (User)-[:ADDED_TO_CART {timestamp}]->(Product)
// (Product)-[:IN_CATEGORY]->(Category)
// (Category)-[:SUBCATEGORY_OF]->(Category)
```

### Social Network Graph

```cypher
// Users and their connections
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (u:User) ASSERT u.id IS UNIQUE;
CREATE INDEX ON :User(name);
CREATE INDEX ON :Post(created_at);

// Relationships
// (User)-[:FOLLOWS]->(User)
// (User)-[:BLOCKED]->(User)
// (User)-[:POSTED {timestamp}]->(Post)
// (User)-[:LIKED {timestamp}]->(Post)
// (User)-[:COMMENTED {text, timestamp}]->(Post)
// (Post)-[:REPLY_TO]->(Post)
// (Post)-[:MENTIONS]->(User)
// (Post)-[:TAGGED]->(Topic)
```

### Fraud Detection Graph

```cypher
// Accounts, transactions, devices
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (a:Account) ASSERT a.id IS UNIQUE;
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (t:Transaction) ASSERT t.id IS UNIQUE;
CREATE CONSTRAINT ON (d:Device) ASSERT d.fingerprint IS UNIQUE;
CREATE INDEX ON :Transaction(timestamp);
CREATE INDEX ON :Transaction(amount);

// Relationships
// (Account)-[:SENT {amount, timestamp}]->(Transaction)
// (Transaction)-[:RECEIVED_BY]->(Account)
// (Account)-[:LOGGED_IN_FROM]->(Device)
// (Account)-[:LINKED_TO {type: 'phone'|'email'|'address'}]->(Account)

// Fraud query - accounts sharing devices
MATCH (a1:Account)-[:LOGGED_IN_FROM]->(d:Device)<-[:LOGGED_IN_FROM]-(a2:Account)
WHERE a1 <> a2
RETURN a1.id, a2.id, d.fingerprint;
```

## Performance Optimization

### Query Optimization

```cypher
// Use EXPLAIN to analyze queries
EXPLAIN MATCH (u:User)-[:PURCHASED]->(p:Product)
WHERE u.name = 'Alice'
RETURN p;

// Use PROFILE for execution details
PROFILE MATCH (u:User)-[:PURCHASED*1..3]->(p:Product)
RETURN DISTINCT p.name;

// Optimize with indexes
CREATE INDEX ON :User(name);

// Use parameters to enable query caching
// Good: MATCH (u:User {id: $id}) RETURN u
// Bad:  MATCH (u:User {id: 123}) RETURN u

// Limit variable-length paths
// Good: -[:FOLLOWS*1..3]->
// Bad:  -[:FOLLOWS*]->
```

### Memory Configuration

```bash
# memgraph.conf
--memory-limit=4096  # MB
--storage-snapshot-interval-sec=300
--storage-wal-enabled=true
--storage-recover-on-startup=true
--log-level=WARNING
```

## Testing

```python
import pytest
from gqlalchemy import Memgraph

@pytest.fixture
def db():
    """Fresh database for each test."""
    db = Memgraph()
    db.execute("MATCH (n) DETACH DELETE n")  # Clean slate
    return db

def test_create_and_query_user(db):
    # Create user
    db.execute("""
        CREATE (u:User {id: 1, name: 'Test User', email: 'test@example.com'})
    """)

    # Query user
    result = list(db.execute_and_fetch(
        "MATCH (u:User {id: 1}) RETURN u.name as name"
    ))

    assert len(result) == 1
    assert result[0]["name"] == "Test User"

def test_relationship_creation(db):
    # Setup
    db.execute("""
        CREATE (u:User {id: 1, name: 'Alice'})
        CREATE (p:Product {id: 101, name: 'Laptop'})
    """)

    # Create relationship
    db.execute("""
        MATCH (u:User {id: 1}), (p:Product {id: 101})
        CREATE (u)-[:PURCHASED {quantity: 1}]->(p)
    """)

    # Verify
    result = list(db.execute_and_fetch("""
        MATCH (u:User)-[r:PURCHASED]->(p:Product)
        RETURN u.name, r.quantity, p.name
    """))

    assert len(result) == 1
    assert result[0]["r.quantity"] == 1

def test_pagerank_algorithm(db):
    # Create test graph
    db.execute("""
        CREATE (a:User {name: 'A'})
        CREATE (b:User {name: 'B'})
        CREATE (c:User {name: 'C'})
        CREATE (a)-[:FOLLOWS]->(b)
        CREATE (a)-[:FOLLOWS]->(c)
        CREATE (b)-[:FOLLOWS]->(c)
    """)

    # Run PageRank
    result = list(db.execute_and_fetch("""
        CALL pagerank.get()
        YIELD node, rank
        WHERE node:User
        RETURN node.name as name, rank
        ORDER BY rank DESC
    """))

    # C should have highest rank (most incoming)
    assert result[0]["name"] == "C"
```

## Troubleshooting

### Connection Issues

```python
# Check if Memgraph is running
import socket

def check_memgraph_connection(host="127.0.0.1", port=7687):
    try:
        sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
        sock.settimeout(5)
        result = sock.connect_ex((host, port))
        sock.close()
        return result == 0
    except:
        return False

if not check_memgraph_connection():
    print("Memgraph not running. Start with:")
    print("docker run -p 7687:7687 memgraph/memgraph-platform")
```

### Memory Issues

```cypher
// Check memory usage
SHOW STORAGE INFO;

// Clear transaction cache
FREE MEMORY;

// If running out of memory, consider:
// 1. Increase --memory-limit in config
// 2. Use snapshots more frequently
// 3. Optimize queries to avoid loading entire graph
```

### Query Performance

```cypher
// Identify slow queries
SHOW TRANSACTIONS;

// Kill long-running query
TERMINATE TRANSACTION "tx_id";

// Check index usage
SHOW INDEX INFO;
```
