Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository's existing documentation for Type Merging and the GraphQL service-merge behavior described in the issue. Document the rule for matching type names and explain how duplicate Query.foo fields should be renamed; done means both cases are clearly covered.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Explain how Type Merging works.

  • Type names should be the same if they refer to the same entity
  • Query.foo needs to be renamed if it exists in both services.
