- functions.md: mark extract(), filter(), reduce() as COMPLETE (all three are implemented as dedicated grammar rules, not missing) - functions.md: mark all(), any(), none(), single(), exists(), isEmpty() as COMPLETE (were incorrectly listed as NOT_IMPLEMENTED) - functions.md: add missing numeric functions: e(), pi(), exp(), log(), log10(), trig (sin/cos/tan/cot/asin/acos/atan/atan2), degrees(), radians() — total numeric count corrected from 10 to 19 - functions.md: add startNode(), endNode() to Scalar section - functions.md: remove stale line-number references (changed in Phases 5-9); update summary stats and version history to v0.3.8 - functions.md: update Limitations and Priority sections to remove now-fixed items; add Known Gaps table with open issues - opencypher-compatibility-matrix.md: correct all the same function statuses; flip XOR, ^, list slicing, negative indexing to ✅; update CALL procedures to ✅ (v0.3.7 #351); update TCK metrics to 3,801/3,885 (97.8%); replace stale v0.3.1-v0.3.7 roadmap with current v0.3.9/v0.4.0 roadmap; update version history Closes #249 Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…385) - Grammar: add `exists_simple` alternative to `exists_expr` for bare pattern form `EXISTS { pattern [WHERE expr] }` alongside existing full form `EXISTS { query }` - AST: extend `SubqueryExpression` with optional `pattern_parts` and `where_predicate` fields for the simple form (query=None when unused) - Parser: add `exists_full` and `exists_simple` transformer methods; update `count_expr` and legacy `exists_expr` to pass all optional fields explicitly - Planner: add `outer_scope_vars` parameter to `plan()` so correlated subquery variables from the outer MATCH are pre-declared, preventing false UndefinedVariable errors; add `_validate_exists_subqueries` / `_validate_no_write_in_exists` to raise SyntaxError(InvalidClauseComposition) when write clauses (SET, REMOVE, CREATE, DELETE, MERGE) appear in EXISTS bodies - Evaluator: route simple form to `_evaluate_simple_exists` which walks pattern parts against the graph, binds new variables per match, and evaluates the WHERE predicate; full form passes outer scope bindings when planning the subquery Fixes all 10 TCK existential-subquery scenarios (ExistentialSubquery1-3), including nested EXISTS and the must-fail update-in-EXISTS validation.

In `@src/graphforge/executor/evaluator.py`:
- Around line 1605-1727: The current EXISTS traversal (seed_bindings,
_extend_hop, hop_count, parts) only continues from named variables and ignores
anonymous nodes and var-length (min_hops/max_hops) patterns; fix by carrying the
current node explicitly in the hop state (e.g., include a special key like
"_cur_node" in each binding or change _extend_hop signature to accept a current
NodeRef), so _extend_hop uses that node when src variable is absent, and when
src variable exists prefer bindings[src_var] but still update "_cur_node" as you
advance; also implement var-length expansion by iterating/recursing between
rel_pattern.min_hops and rel_pattern.max_hops (mirroring the logic in
_evaluate_pattern_predicate) to repeatedly follow edges and collect intermediate
bindings, applying the same label/type/bound-variable equality checks
(dst_pattern.labels, rel_pattern.types, ctx.bindings enforcement) at each step,
and ensure seed_bindings includes initial "_cur_node" for anonymous source
scans.
- Around line 1609-1614: When seeding traversal from an already-bound variable
(the src_var branch using ctx.get / ctx.bindings and appending to
seed_bindings), add a label validation against src_pattern.labels: after
retrieving src_node (and after the CypherNull check) verify that if
src_pattern.labels is non-empty the src_node contains all those labels (use
whatever NodeRef API provides for labels); only append {src_var: src_node} to
seed_bindings when the label check passes, otherwise skip seeding. This prevents
bound variables that don't match src_pattern.labels from incorrectly satisfying
EXISTS patterns.
In `@src/graphforge/planner/planner.py`:
- Around line 2773-2834: The EXISTS-walker misses some paths: in
_validate_exists_subqueries pass clause.where.predicate (not clause.where), and
also iterate WithClause.items like ReturnClause.items and call
_validate_no_write_in_exists(item.expression); in _validate_no_write_in_exists,
when handling SubqueryExpression also recurse into its where_predicate (or
.where.predicate if the AST uses a Where container) so nested WHERE/EXISTS
chains (e.g. WithClause items and SubqueryExpression.where_predicate) are
visited and write clauses inside EXISTS are caught.

evaluator.py — _evaluate_simple_exists: - Carry _cur sentinel key in each binding dict so anonymous intermediate node patterns (no variable name) advance traversal correctly; previously an anonymous src caused a silent skip via the `elif src_v: continue` branch - Add src label validation for the bound-variable seed path (mirrors the label check already present for unbound scans) - Implement var-length hop expansion inside _extend_hop: when rel_pattern has min_hops/max_hops set, delegate to _var_length_reachable and apply dst label/equality checks to each reachable node planner.py — _validate_exists_subqueries / _validate_no_write_in_exists: - Pass clause.where.predicate (not clause.where) to avoid a WhereClause object reaching _validate_no_write_in_exists with no matching isinstance - Iterate WithClause.items and recurse into each item.expression so EXISTS subqueries embedded in WITH projections are validated - Recurse into SubqueryExpression.where_predicate in _validate_no_write_in_exists so write clauses nested inside a simple-form WHERE are caught Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…in CI - Update comparison tables in README and docs from "openCypher subset" to "Full OpenCypher*" with footnote: 3,865/3,885 TCK passing, 20 permanent xfails due to CPython integer/float precision limitations - Add @pytest.mark.snap to TestSmallDatasetLoading and TestComplexQueries so their live network downloads are skipped in CI - Exclude snap-marked tests in CI integration and coverage shard runs via -m "not snap" (snap marker was already documented as CI-skipped in pyproject.toml but not enforced in the workflow) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
