What This Skill Does

CLI tool for managing GraphQL schemas in Apollo GraphOS. Handles publishing, fetching, and validating subgraph schemas, composing federated supergraphs locally, and running a local development router with hot-reloading composition. It replaces manual schema copying, ad-hoc composition scripts, and separate Router setup with a single CLI that handles the full federated GraphQL workflow from local dev to production publishing.
