A subscription root field returning a federated entity interface served by a datasource whose keys all have DisableEntityResolver (the shape composed for event-driven subgraphs) resolved __typename from that datasource's own data — for an EDFS source that is the event payload, which typically carries the abstract interface name. Clients received an abstract __typename with no type-conditioned fields, and with only key-local fields selected no entity fetch was planned at all.

This PR makes such a datasource stop claiming __typename for the entity interface when another datasource can resolve the entity (a sole-source interface keeps the local claim rather than becoming unplannable), emits the abstract __typename as ... on <AbstractType> { __typename } in the _entities selection set, and fixes walkField firing LeaveField without EnterField for fields explicitly allowed under a skipped ancestor — which was dropping the field and unbalancing the datasource planner's node stack. The three changes form one mechanism and are not independently shippable.

Four existing entity-interface golden plans change: three gain an ... on Account { __typename } fragment that the walker bug previously dropped (the shape already appears in the passing query 0 golden), one flattens a nested fragment into equivalent siblings. Representation variables and response mappings are unchanged in all four.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved federation planning for entity-interface subscriptions and abstract __typename fields.
    • Preserved required type information when resolving entities across multiple data sources.
    • Corrected traversal so explicitly allowed fields under skipped ancestors are handled consistently.
    • Improved handling of inline fragments within entity selections and prevented incorrect fragment nesting.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for nested visitor filters, event-driven entity interfaces, orphan events, and multi-source federation planning scenarios.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change fixes field visitor callback gating and adds federation planning for abstract entity-interface __typename selections. It adds event-driven datasource fixtures and tests for local, remote, unresolved, and concrete-type cases.

Changes

Visitor skip handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Field skip traversal and validation
v2/pkg/astvisitor/visitor.go, v2/pkg/astvisitor/visitor_skipfor_test.go
EnterField now uses the current field decision after skipFor updates. Tests cover nested skips, siblings, fragments, ancestry, and balanced callbacks.

Entity-interface federation planning

Layer / File(s) Summary
Event-driven datasource fixtures
v2/pkg/engine/datasource/graphql_datasource/entity_interfaces_engine_config.go
The test schema and plan add event-driven and orphan-event subscription datasources with disabled entity resolvers.
Cross-datasource resolver filtering
v2/pkg/engine/plan/datasource_filter_collect_nodes_visitor.go
Datasource visitors share resolvable entity-interface names and conditionally retain interface __typename suggestions.
Abstract _entities fragment handling
v2/pkg/engine/datasource/graphql_datasource/graphql_datasource.go
The datasource planner handles inline fragments and preserves __typename for abstract _entities selections.
Entity-interface plan expectations
v2/pkg/engine/datasource/graphql_datasource/graphql_datasource_federation_entity_interfaces_edfs_test.go, v2/pkg/engine/datasource/graphql_datasource/graphql_datasource_federation_entity_interfaces_test.go
Tests validate remote entity resolution, local unresolved interfaces, concrete fragments, and updated _entities requests.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 29bd2

The change corrects concrete type resolution and planner traversal for event-driven entity interfaces, with corresponding plan updates and tests; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

373-385: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Consider moving the interface-name lookup to FederationMetaData.

isEntityInterfaceName reimplements a lookup over FederationMetaData.EntityInterfaces that lives next to HasEntityInterface in v2/pkg/engine/plan/federation_metadata.go. A method such as HasEntityInterfaceName(typeName string) bool on FederationMetaData keeps both variants of the lookup in one place and lets other planner code reuse the exact-name semantics. initVisitors at Lines 84-93 also walks EntityInterfaces directly, so a shared helper removes two copies of the same traversal.

This is optional and can be deferred.

…resolvable (event-driven) datasources

A datasource whose entity interface keys all have DisableEntityResolver
(as composed for event-driven subgraphs) cannot be trusted to report the
concrete __typename, so it no longer claims the field when another
datasource can resolve the entity. The abstract __typename is emitted as
an inline fragment on the abstract type in the _entities selection set,
and walkField no longer fires LeaveField without EnterField for fields
explicitly allowed under a skipped ancestor.
