Description
**Phase 5 of Parent epic:** [#863](https://github.com/apache/geaflow/issues/863)
## Summary
Prepare the GraphRAG engine for maintainer review and final acceptance. Consolidate the implementation from Phases before, close integration gaps, document supported usage and limitations, and verify that a fresh contributor can run the service, invoke the REST API, and reproduce the benchmark artifacts.
## Motivation
An implementation is not complete when the code works only in the author's environment. The final phase must make behavior discoverable, preserve compatibility with existing `geaflow-ai` APIs, and provide an auditable acceptance package for the GeaFlow community.
## Scope
- Run the complete Java unit, integration, HTTP contract, and legacy `/query/*` regression suites.
- Run the end-to-end ingestion, index build, retrieval, evaluation, and benchmark smoke commands from a clean checkout and verified local cache.
- Fix release-blocking defects, flaky tests, nondeterministic ordering, resource leaks, and unclear error messages discovered during maintainer review.
- Publish API documentation for `POST /api/v1/retrievals`, `/health`, `/ready`, request IDs, version selection, budgets, response fields, error codes, and degradation behavior.
- Add runnable `curl` and/or Java examples showing graph preparation and an upper-layer retrieval call, including successful, empty, and typed-error responses.
- Document configuration defaults, hard limits, supported retrieval/execution modes, dataset licenses, cache/artifact requirements, known limitations, and operational responsibilities of the deployment gateway.
- Assemble the final experiment report with methodology, raw artifact locations, reproducibility commands, ablations, negative results, and applicability boundaries.
- Verify Java compatibility, dependency/license notices, formatting, and repository contribution conventions before delivery on 2026-11-10.
## Suggested implementation locations
- `geaflow-ai/src/test/` - final unit, integration, HTTP, and compatibility coverage.
- `examples/graphrag/` or the repository-approved examples location - runnable service/client examples.
- `docs/` - API, configuration, ingestion, evaluation, and troubleshooting documentation.
- `tools/graphrag/` - reproduction scripts and validation commands.
## Testing and review checklist
- Unit, integration, HTTP contract, and end-to-end smoke tests.
- Backward-compatibility check for `/query/context`, `/query/exec`, and `/query/result`.
- Reproducibility check using the published manifests, seeds, and commands.
- Resource and timeout checks for the service and retrieval executors.
- Documentation link, command, JSON schema, and license review.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading parent issue #863 and the existing implementation, tests, and conventions under geaflow-ai/src/test/, examples/graphrag/, docs/, and tools/graphrag/. Run the listed unit, integration, HTTP, compatibility, and end-to-end checks from a clean checkout. Done means the service and examples are reproducible, the required API and operational documentation is published, and the complete acceptance checklist passes.
