Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added relationship shortcut aliases for attack path traversal (:ALL_ATTACK_PATHS, :AD_ATTACK_PATHS, :AZ_ATTACK_PATHS) usable in searches/queries.
  • Editor autocomplete and schema validation now recognize these shortcuts.

• Refactor

  • Standardized common searches to use explicit AD/AZ attack path types for consistent, predictable query behavior (no functional change).

Walkthrough

Introduces centralized attack path relationship shortcut aliases and integrates them into schema awareness. Replaces dynamically derived edge lists in Cypher queries with explicit shortcut labels for AD and Azure paths. Updates tests to accept and verify these shortcuts. Adjusts graphSchema to include shortcut aliases among relationship types.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Shortcut Aliases Module packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/attackPathShortcuts.ts	Adds ATTACK_PATH_RELATIONSHIP_SHORTCUTS (':ALL_ATTACK_PATHS', ':AD_ATTACK_PATHS', ':AZ_ATTACK_PATHS') and AttackPathRelationshipShortcut type; documents server-side macro expansion.
Query Updates to Use Shortcuts packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/commonSearchesAGI.ts, packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/commonSearchesAGT.ts	Removes dynamic edge-type derivations; replaces usages with [:AD_ATTACK_PATHS*...] and [:AZ_ATTACK_PATHS*...] in Cypher queries.
Schema Awareness of Shortcuts packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/constants.ts	Updates graphSchema() to append relationship shortcut aliases to known relationship types for editor/autocomplete and filtering.
Tests: Accept and Verify Shortcuts packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/commonSearches.test.ts, packages/javascript/bh-shared-ui/src/constants.test.ts	Adjusts validation to allow shortcut aliases and adds test ensuring graphSchema() includes all shortcut aliases in relationshipTypes.

Poem

I skitter through graphs with whiskered delight,
New paths marked clear for my moonlit flight—
AD and AZ, shortcuts I chase,
Hops turn to hops in a swift, tidy trace.
With schema seeds tucked in my pack,
I nibble tests—no edges lack. 🐇✨
