📝 Abstract
Graph-agentic retrieval-augmented generation combines structured evidence with adaptive controllers that can plan retrieval, traverse relations, verify intermediate claims, delegate subtasks, and use tools. This combination is useful when answers depend on relations across documents, entities, time, or institutions, but it also creates coupled failure paths: a defect in graph construction can become retrieved evidence, alter later control decisions, and propagate toward a consequential outcome. We examine how such systems should be designed and evaluated for social-good settings in which freshness, authorization, traceability, oversight, and recourse matter alongside answer quality. We organize the literature by graph substrate, graph lifecycle, agent function, coordination pattern, and authority boundary, and distinguish graph-based retrieval from observation-dependent graph control. We then synthesize reported risks as an evidence-to-action failure chain and propose an assurance-by-construction blueprint comprising five interface contracts for evidence, retrieval, reasoning, capability and delegation, and outcome. These contracts make provenance, temporal validity, authorization, uncertainty, and recoverability explicit at system boundaries. An illustrative public-benefit information design shows how the framework constrains graph structure, permissions, abstention, and operating authority. Finally, we derive an evaluation agenda spanning graph assertions, trajectories, claims, coordination, and outcomes.
