description: The Graph is a decentralized blockchain data indexing protocol. It exposes
  Subgraphs (GraphQL APIs over indexed on-chain data), Substreams (parallel streaming
  dataflows), the Token API (REST/MCP for token data), and supports 80+ chains. Self-hosted
  Graph Node and Firehose are open-source.
