Graphql Operation Extraction From Source Code

✏️ Apollo CLI for client tooling (Mostly replaced by Rover)

Unique: Uses language-specific AST parsers (TypeScript parser for JS/TS, Swift parser for Swift) to identify GraphQL literals within source code, then extracts and normalizes them. Supports multiple embedding patterns through configurable extraction rules in apollo.config.js.

vs others: Integrated extraction within Apollo tooling vs standalone tools like graphql-cli; tighter integration with code generation pipeline
