StellaOps Graph

Graph Indexer + Graph API build the tenant-scoped knowledge graph that powers blast-radius analysis, provenance timelines, and saved-query automation across StellaOps. Cartographer has been retired as of 2025-10-30 (see docs/updates/2025-10-30-devops-governance.md); this module now owns ingestion, storage, overlays, and query surfaces for graph data.

Scope & responsibilities

  • Ingest SBOM snapshots, advisory/VEX events, policy overlays, and runtime signals to maintain a first-party graph representation with deterministic node/edge identities.
  • Serve APIs and saved-query tooling for impact analysis, dependency traversal, diffing, and policy/VEX overlays with explainable provenance.
  • Supply Graph Explorer UI/CLI experiences, plus Offline Kit exports (nodes.jsonl, edges.jsonl, overlays/) with DSSE manifests for air-gapped replay.
  • Maintain the Graph Index Canonical Schema and coordinate query/overlay lifecycle with Scheduler, Policy Engine, Vulnerability Explorer, and Export Center.

Architecture snapshot (Sprint 30 groundwork)

  • Graph Indexer service — consumes SBOM (sbom_snapshot), advisory, and VEX events; normalises identifiers; persists into graph_nodes, graph_edges, graph_snapshots, and overlay caches with tenant partitions.
  • Graph API service — exposes GET /graph/nodes, /graph/impact/{advisory}, /graph/query/saved, /graph/diff, and overlay endpoints with RBAC scopes defined in Authority (docs/updates/2025-10-26-authority-graph-scopes.md).
  • Overlay & diff workers — materialise impact lists, saved-query caches, and signed diff manifests; feed Scheduler GraphBuildJob/GraphOverlayJob contracts (docs/updates/2025-10-26-scheduler-graph-jobs.md).
  • Console & CLI integrations — planned modules deliver WebGL explorer, timeline viz, and CLI stella sbom graph ... commands aligned with implementation plan phases.
  • Storage abstraction — supports document + adjacency (Mongo) or pluggable graph engine; both paths enforce deterministic ordering and export manifests.

Current workstreams (Q42025)

  • GRAPH-SVC-30-00x (see src/Graph/StellaOps.Graph.Indexer/TASKS.md) — stand up Graph Indexer pipeline, identity registry, snapshot exports.
  • Active sprint: docs/implplan/SPRINT_0141_0001_0001_graph_indexer.md (Runtime & Signals 140.A) — clustering/centrality jobs, incremental/backfill pipeline, determinism tests, packaging.
  • GRAPH-API-30-00x — draft API planner/cost guard, streaming responses, and Authority scope integration.
  • DOCS-GRAPH-24-003 & related backlog — author overview/API/query language docs; update this README again once those deliverables land.
  • Deployment/DevOps follow-ups (DEVOPS-VEX-30-001, DEPLOY-VEX-30-001) coordinate dashboards, load tests, and Helm/Compose overlays for the graph stack.

Integrations & dependencies

  • SBOM Service (Scanner WebService + Worker) produce sbom_snapshot events consumed by Graph Indexer.
  • Concelier/Excititor contribute advisory + VEX edges; VEX Lens consensus overlays attach to graph nodes as attributes.
  • Policy Engine & Scheduler trigger recompute jobs and consume overlays for risk/impact automation.
  • Vulnerability Explorer & Console surface graph queries, saved views, and diff visualisations.
  • Authority defines scopes (graph.viewer, graph.operator) and client registrations; secrets managed via existing platform patterns.

Data, observability & offline

  • Collections/tables: graph_nodes, graph_edges, graph_snapshots, graph_saved_queries, graph_overlays_cache, append-only change logs for replay.
  • Metrics: graph_ingest_lag_seconds, graph_nodes_total, graph_query_latency_seconds{queryId}, overlay/diff duration counters.
  • Logs/traces: structured ETL logs, query planner traces, WebGL interaction telemetry (once UI lands).
  • Offline bundles: deterministic nodes.jsonl, edges.jsonl, overlay manifests + DSSE signatures, consumable by Export Center and CLI mirroring.

Key docs & updates

  • architecture.md — inputs, pipelines, APIs, storage choices, observability, offline handling.
  • implementation_plan.md — phased delivery roadmap, work breakdown, risks, test strategy.
  • schema.md — canonical node/edge schema and attribute dictionary (keep in sync with indexer code).
  • Updates: docs/updates/2025-10-26-scheduler-graph-jobs.md, docs/updates/2025-10-26-authority-graph-scopes.md, docs/updates/2025-10-30-devops-governance.md for the latest decisions/dependencies.

Epic alignment

  • Epic 5 SBOM Graph Explorer: Graph Indexer, Graph API, saved queries, overlays, Console/CLI experiences, Offline Kit parity.
  • Cross-epic ties: Policy reasoning (explain overlays), Scheduler recompute, Notify/Task Runner integration for graph incidents.
