From 4a2569e243af04b3d94b00daf67804b678e00059 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sylvain Duchesne Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2026 09:38:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] docs+test(client): correct the phantom-graph claim, verify graph behavior in e2e MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The lib e2e harness now characterizes all three SPARQL graph shapes against the real broker (24/24): (a) no-GRAPH anchored write round-trips; (b) an explicit anchored GRAPH ALSO resolves to the same repo (no phantom graph) — the earlier 'targets a phantom graph, does NOT round-trip' claim is FALSE on @ng-org/web 0.1.2-alpha.13; (c) an anchorless GRAPH ?g scan spans every named graph (O(wallet) union, 32 graphs) — TRUE, re-verified. Reconcile the comments accordingly: inbox.ts / store-registry.ts drop the false phantom-graph justification (no-GRAPH stays as the canonical, always-safe shape — a simplicity choice, not a round-trip necessity; re-verify via e2e if the broker version changes). read-model.md keeps the anchorless-O(wallet) rationale (the real reason reads are per-doc anchored) and appends a note distinguishing the variable GRAPH ?g SCAN from a constant GRAPH WRITE. No new absolute introduced.
