Evidence-backed facts

  1. Cypher is Neo4j's declarative query language for property graph databases, and the current manual distinguishes Cypher 25 from frozen Cypher 5 behavior. informative
  2. Graph matching, traversal, vector indexes, and other query behavior must be bound to the selected Cypher and database version plus database access policy. informative
  3. Node, relationship, property, schema, and administrative mutations are different operations and require explicit transaction and authorization controls. informative
  4. A Cypher reference does not create a graph, authenticate a user, grant database privileges, validate generated queries, or prove completeness or factual truth of returned relationships. informative
