Pure-reference catalog of GraphQL introspection as an attack surface and the production-deployment controls for it. Covers what introspection exposes (every type, field, directive, deprecation, description via __schema / __type), Apollo Server's default behaviour (introspection: false when NODE_ENV=production), the `hideSchemaDetailsFromClientErrors: true` companion setting (strips 'did you mean' suggestions), Yoga / Mercurius / Hasura equivalents, query-depth + query-cost limits, persisted-query allowlisting as the strongest mitigation, and the testable behaviours each control creates. Use when designing the production-safety posture of a GraphQL server or auditing an existing deployment.
