What it does

Neo4j Graphrag Skill is an agent skill from neo4j-contrib/neo4j-skills. Build GraphRAG retrieval pipelines on Neo4j using the neo4j-graphrag Python package (v1.22.0+). Covers retriever selection (VectorRetriever, HybridRetriever, VectorCypherRetriever, HybridCypherRetriever, Text2CypherRetriever, ToolsRetriever), external vector DB retrievers (Weaviate, Pinecone, Qdrant), retrievalquery Cypher fragments, queryparams, filters, GraphRAG pipeline wiring (GraphRAG + LLM + prompt), all LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini/VertexAI, Bedrock, Cohere, Mistral, Ollama), embedder setup…

Its SKILL.md is about 4.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `references/kg-builder.md` and `references/knowledge-graph-construction.md`).

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering Knowledge graphs, Vector databases and Agent memory. It works with Neo4j, Python, LangChain and LlamaIndex. The repository describes itself as: Neo4j Skills for Coding and other Agents including Cypher. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Knowledge graphs
  • Tasks that involve Vector databases
  • Tasks that involve Agent memory

Example prompts

  • “/neo4j-graphrag-skill”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in OPENAI_API_KEY
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, WebFetch

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Choose Retriever
  2. Create Indexes (run once)
  3. Core Pattern (HybridCypherRetriever)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit bb30e1f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash
    • WebFetch

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • neo4j.com
    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • NEO4J_PASSWORD
    • OPENAI_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Neo4j Graphrag Skill loads about 4.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~9.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 222 tokens; SKILL.md has 776 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~222
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~9.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, WebFetch

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Neo4j GraphRAG Skill

When to Use

  • Building GraphRAG retrieval pipelines with neo4j-graphrag Python package
  • Choosing between VectorRetriever, HybridRetriever, VectorCypherRetriever, HybridCypherRetriever
  • Writing retrieval_query Cypher fragments for graph-augmented context
  • Wiring retriever + LLM into a GraphRAG pipeline
  • Using LLM-routed multi-retriever with ToolsRetriever
  • Debugging low retrieval quality
  • Integrating Neo4j with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or Haystack

When NOT to Use

  • KG construction from documents → neo4j-document-import-skill
  • Plain vector/semantic search without graph traversal → neo4j-vector-index-skill
  • Hybrid search that combines vector with fulltext or other ranked sources → neo4j-vector-index-skill
  • GDS algorithms (PageRank, Louvain, node embeddings) → neo4j-gds-skill
  • Agent long-term memory → neo4j-agent-memory-skill
  • Writing raw Cypher queries → neo4j-cypher-skill

Retriever Selection

Has fulltext index?
  YES → Hybrid variants (HybridRetriever / HybridCypherRetriever)
  NO  → Vector variants (VectorRetriever / VectorCypherRetriever)

Need graph traversal after vector lookup?
  YES → Cypher variants (VectorCypherRetriever / HybridCypherRetriever)
  NO  → plain variants

Natural-language-to-Cypher?        → Text2CypherRetriever (no embedder needed)
LLM should route between retrievers? → ToolsRetriever
Vectors stored in external DB?      → WeaviateNeo4jRetriever / PineconeNeo4jRetriever / QdrantNeo4jRetriever

Install

bash
pip install neo4j-graphrag[openai]        # OpenAI LLM + embeddings
pip install neo4j-graphrag[anthropic]     # Anthropic Claude
pip install neo4j-graphrag[google]        # Vertex AI / Gemini

pip install neo4j-graphrag[pinecone]      # Pinecone external retriever
pip install neo4j-graphrag[qdrant]        # Qdrant external retriever

Requires: Python >= 3.10, neo4j >= 5.17.0 (driver 6.x supported).


Step 2 — Choose Retriever

Pick from Retriever Selection table above.

For custom Cypher hybrid search outside the neo4j-graphrag retriever APIs, use neo4j-vector-index-skill.

Vector backend selection [v1.16+, auto]: on Neo4j 2026.01+ all four vector/hybrid retrievers auto-route through the Cypher 25 SEARCH ... WHERE clause when filters are SEARCH-compatible (simple AND comparisons) and all filter props are declared in the index WITH [n.prop] list. $or, $in, $like, or undeclared props → automatic fallback to db.index.vector.queryNodes() procedure path (with warning log). Declare filterable properties via filterable_properties=[...] on create_vector_index().


Step 3 — Create Indexes (run once)

cypher
// Vector index (all retrievers need this)
CREATE VECTOR INDEX chunk_embedding IF NOT EXISTS
FOR (c:Chunk) ON (c.embedding)
OPTIONS { indexConfig: {
  `vector.dimensions`: 1536,
  `vector.similarity_function`: 'cosine'
} };

// Fulltext index (Hybrid retrievers only)
CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX chunk_fulltext IF NOT EXISTS
FOR (c:Chunk) ON EACH [c.text];

// Confirm ONLINE before ingesting:
SHOW INDEXES YIELD name, state
WHERE name IN ['chunk_embedding', 'chunk_fulltext']
RETURN name, state;
// Both must show state = 'ONLINE'

If index not ONLINE: wait, poll every 5s. Do NOT start ingestion until ONLINE.


Step 4 — Core Pattern (HybridCypherRetriever)

python
from neo4j import GraphDatabase
from neo4j_graphrag.embeddings import OpenAIEmbeddings
from neo4j_graphrag.generation import GraphRAG
from neo4j_graphrag.llm import OpenAILLM
from neo4j_graphrag.retrievers import HybridCypherRetriever

driver = GraphDatabase.driver(NEO4J_URI, auth=(NEO4J_USERNAME, NEO4J_PASSWORD))
embedder = OpenAIEmbeddings(model="text-embedding-3-large")  # OPENAI_API_KEY from env

# retrieval_query: Cypher fragment executed after the vector/fulltext lookup.
# Auto-injected variables:  node  (matched node)   score  (similarity float)
# MUST include a RETURN clause.  score must appear in RETURN.
retrieval_query = """
MATCH (node)<-[:HAS_CHUNK]-(article:Article)
OPTIONAL MATCH (article)-[:MENTIONS]->(org:Organization)
RETURN node.text AS chunk_text,
       article.title AS article_title,
       collect(DISTINCT org.name) AS mentioned_organizations,
       score
"""

retriever = HybridCypherRetriever(
    driver=driver,
    vector_index_name="chunk_embedding",
    fulltext_index_name="chunk_fulltext",
    retrieval_query=retrieval_query,
    embedder=embedder,
)

llm = OpenAILLM(model_name="gpt-4.1", model_params={"temperature": 0})

rag = GraphRAG(
    retriever=retriever,
    llm=llm,
)

response = rag.search(
    query_text="Who does Alice work for?",
    retriever_config={"top_k": 5},
)
print(response.answer)
driver.close()

VectorCypherRetriever

python
from neo4j_graphrag.retrievers import VectorCypherRetriever

retriever = VectorCypherRetriever(
    driver=driver,
    index_name="chunk_embedding",
    retrieval_query=retrieval_query,
    embedder=embedder,
)

response = rag.search(
    query_text="What happened at Apple?",
    retriever_config={"top_k": 10},
)

Text2CypherRetriever

Translates natural language to Cypher using an LLM. No embedder required.

Security (v1.16.0+): Every LLM-generated Cypher is run through EXPLAIN first. Any statement classified as write/destructive raises Text2CypherRetrievalError instead of executing — prevents prompt-injection attacks.

python
from neo4j_graphrag.retrievers import Text2CypherRetriever

retriever = Text2CypherRetriever(
    driver=driver,
    llm=OpenAILLM(model_name="gpt-4.1"),
    neo4j_schema=None,       # None = auto-fetch schema from DB; pass string to trim
    examples=[
        "Q: Who works at Neo4j? A: MATCH (p:Person)-[:WORKS_AT]->(c:Company {name:'Neo4j'}) RETURN p.name"
    ],
)
results = retriever.search(query_text="Which people work at Neo4j?")

ToolsRetriever (LLM-routed multi-retriever)

python
from neo4j_graphrag.retrievers import ToolsRetriever

tools_retriever = ToolsRetriever(
    llm=llm,
    retrievers=[vector_retriever, text2cypher_retriever],
)
# LLM decides which retriever(s) to invoke per query

# Convert any retriever to a standalone Tool:
tool = vector_retriever.convert_to_tool()

python
results = retriever.search(
    query_text="quarterly earnings",
    top_k=5,
    filters={
        "date": {"$gte": "2024-01-01"},
        "source": {"$eq": "10-K"},
    },
)
# Operators: $eq  $ne  $lt  $lte  $gt  $gte  $between  $in  $like  $ilike

query_params (parameterized retrieval_query)

python
retrieval_query = """
MATCH (node)<-[:HAS_CHUNK]-(a:Article)-[:MENTIONS]->(org:Organization {name: $entity_name})
RETURN node.text, a.title, score
"""

# Pass via retriever.search directly:
results = retriever.search(
    query_text="What happened at Apple?",
    top_k=10,
    query_params={"entity_name": "Apple"},
)

# Or via GraphRAG.search:
response = rag.search(
    query_text="What happened at Apple?",
    retriever_config={"top_k": 10, "query_params": {"entity_name": "Apple"}},
)

Cypher 25 SEARCH Clause (v1.16.0, Neo4j 2026.x+)

python
# Enable SEARCH clause syntax in vector/hybrid retrievers (requires Neo4j 2026+)
retriever = VectorRetriever(
    driver=driver,
    index_name="chunk_embedding",
    embedder=embedder,
    use_search_clause=True,
)

Since v1.19, the vector and vector-Cypher retrievers automatically prefix SEARCH queries with CYPHER 25 and fall back to the procedure-based vector search when SEARCH is unsupported or fails.


Component Imports (v1.19 — breaking, preparing 2.0)

All components moved out of the experimental namespace. Old imports still work but emit a DeprecationWarning and will be removed in 2.0:

python
# v1.19+ — preferred
from neo4j_graphrag.components.text_splitters.fixed_size_splitter import FixedSizeSplitter

# deprecated (removed in 2.0)
from neo4j_graphrag.experimental.components.text_splitters.fixed_size_splitter import FixedSizeSplitter

# SimpleKGPipeline did NOT move — only valid path:
from neo4j_graphrag.experimental.pipeline.kg_builder import SimpleKGPipeline

neo4j_graphrag.pipeline (v1.21+) = new lazy dataflow DSL (Pipeline, LocalInterpreter, Sink), unrelated to the experimental task-graph Pipeline behind SimpleKGPipeline. neo4j_graphrag.pipeline.kg_builder does not exist → ModuleNotFoundError.

Also since v1.19: Component / RunContext / TaskProgressNotifierProtocol live in neo4j_graphrag.components.base, and malformed components raise ComponentDefinitionError (no longer PipelineDefinitionError).


Dataflow Pipeline DSL + Observers (v1.21)

Lazy neo4j_graphrag.pipeline.Pipeline + LocalInterpreter(observers=[...]); TextSplitter.iter_chunks(). Full API → references/pipeline-dsl.md.


ORDER BY on Cypher Retrievers (v1.16.0)

python
results = retriever.search(
    query_text="...",
    top_k=10,
    order_by="score DESC",
)

If neo4j_schema=None: retriever fetches schema automatically. For large schemas, pass a trimmed string to reduce LLM prompt size.

Destructive-query guard [v1.16+]: Text2CypherRetriever runs EXPLAIN on the generated Cypher before execution and rejects queries that produce writes (CREATE, MERGE, DELETE, SET, REMOVE, etc.). LLM-generated writes are never executed against the graph.

Custom Prompt Template

python
from neo4j_graphrag.generation.prompts import RagTemplate

template = RagTemplate(
    template="""Answer using ONLY the context below.
Context: {context}
Question: {query_text}
Answer:""",
    expected_inputs=["context", "query_text"],
)

rag = GraphRAG(retriever=retriever, llm=llm, prompt_template=template)

return_context and response_fallback

python
response = rag.search(
    query_text="...",
    retriever_config={"top_k": 5},
    return_context=True,                        # include raw retrieved chunks
    response_fallback="No relevant context.",   # skip LLM call if retriever returns nothing
)
print(response.answer)
print(response.retriever_result)    # RawSearchResult when return_context=True

Message History (multi-turn)

python
from neo4j_graphrag.message_history import InMemoryMessageHistory

history = InMemoryMessageHistory()
r1 = rag.search(query_text="Who is Alice?", message_history=history)
r2 = rag.search(query_text="Where does she work?", message_history=history)

External Retrievers, LLM + Embedder Providers

  • Weaviate / Pinecone / Qdrant constructors → references/retrievers.md
  • LLM classes (OpenAILLM, AnthropicLLM, GeminiLLM, VertexAILLM, BedrockLLM, …), base_url, token usage, close(); embedder classes + dims → references/providers.md

Index Setup

python
from neo4j_graphrag.indexes import create_vector_index

# Vector index — adjust dimensions to match your embedding model
create_vector_index(
    driver,
    name="chunk_embedding",
    label="Chunk",
    embedding_property="embedding",
    dimensions=1536,
    similarity_fn="cosine",       # or "euclidean"
)

# Fulltext index (run as Cypher)
# CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX chunk_fulltext IF NOT EXISTS
#   FOR (c:Chunk) ON EACH [c.text]

Schema Inspection

python
from neo4j_graphrag.schema import get_schema, get_structured_schema

schema_str = get_schema(driver, sample=1000)           # human-readable string
schema_dict = get_structured_schema(driver, sample=1000)  # dict with labels/rels/props

  • neo4j-graphrag (not neo4j-genai) installed; neo4j >= 5.17.0 driver
  • Vector index ONLINE before ingesting embeddings or running retriever
  • Fulltext index ONLINE if using Hybrid variants
  • Embedding dims in create_vector_index match the embedder output
  • retrieval_query returns node and score in RETURN (not re-declared)
  • query_params passed via retriever_config on rag.search() (not on retriever constructor)
  • API keys in env vars; never hardcoded
  • llm.close() called when done to release resources
