description: The Guild is an open-source software group building much of the GraphQL ecosystem's tooling, published together
  at the-guild.dev. Its portfolio spans GraphQL Hive (schema registry, usage observability and breaking-change detection),
  GraphQL Mesh (composing many APIs into one graph), GraphQL Yoga (server), Envelop (plugin runtime), GraphQL Tools and Schema
  Stitching (schema composition), GraphQL Code Generator (typed clients and servers), GraphQL Inspector (schema diffing and
  CI checks) and GraphQL Scalars. Every product listed here shares the-guild.dev as its home, which is why they are profiled
  as one provider with many APIs rather than as separate companies.

    The @graphql-tools/stitch package creates a combined proxy layer that delegates requests through to underlying service
    APIs, supporting type merging, stitching directives, and automated query planning comparable to Apollo Federation.

x-merge-note: Consolidated 2026-08-03 from ten slugs that all resolved to the-guild.dev paths and none of which had its own
  domain. Per the domain-slug convention they are one provider; each former slug is now an API entry here and is tombstoned
  in api-search/network/_data/retired.yml.
