 Vector Cypher Retriever
 =======================
 
-The `VectorCypherRetriever` allows full utilization of Neo4j's graph nature by
-enhancing context through graph traversal.
+The `VectorCypherRetriever` fully leverages Neo4j's graph capabilities by combining vector-based similarity searches with graph traversal techniques. It processes a query embedding to perform a similarity search against a specified vector index, retrieves relevant node variables, and then executes a Cypher query to traverse the graph based on these nodes. This integration ensures that retrievals are both semantically meaningful and contextually enriched by the underlying graph structure.

 Retrieval Query

 When crafting the retrieval query, it's important to note two available variables
 are in the query scope:

 Format the Results
------------------------------
+------------------
 
 .. warning::
 
     This API is in beta mode and will be subject to change in the future.
 
-For improved readability and ease in prompt-engineering, formatting the result to suit
-specific needs involves providing a `record_formatter` function to the Cypher retrievers.
-This function processes the Neo4j record from the retrieval query, returning a
-`RetrieverResultItem` with `content` (str) and `metadata` (dict) fields. The `content`
-field is used for passing data to the LLM, while `metadata` can serve debugging purposes
-and provide additional context.
+The result_formatter function customizes the output of Cypher retrievers for improved prompt engineering and readability. It converts each Neo4j record into a RetrieverResultItem with two fields: `content` and `metadata`.
+
+The `content` field is a formatted string containing the key information intended for the language model, such as movie titles or descriptions. The `metadata` field holds additional details, useful for debugging or providing extra context, like scores or node properties.
