FAQ

How is the complexity score calculated?
Each field carries a base weight (1 for scalars, higher for lists). The score multiplies weights by list sizes and nesting depth, then sums all fields in the query.
Does it need access to my GraphQL server?
No. You paste your query (and optionally your schema) into the tool. All analysis runs client-side — nothing is sent to a server.
What counts as an "expensive" query?
Queries scoring above 500 are flagged as expensive. Common culprits are unbounded list fields, deep nesting, and missing pagination arguments.
