Neo4j MCP server behavior change: NEO4J_DATABASE setting now honored for all operations

Self-hosted Neo4j Enterprise deployments with custom database settings (non-default 'neo4j') may have experienced data split across databases. Users must explicitly verify NEO4J_DATABASE configuration and check for data that may have been written to the home database before upgrading.

Evidence
+WHO IS AFFECTED: Self-hosted Neo4j Enterprise deployments where NEO4J_DATABASE (or database: in config.yaml) was set to something other than neo4j. Standard setups using the default neo4j database need no action. Before: The MCP server ignored your database setting; add_memory / search could hit the server's home database while other operations used the configured one — data could be split across two databases. After: All operations consistently use the configured database. Set NEO4J_DATABASE explicitly in .env or config.yaml: NEO4J_DATABASE=your_database_name Migration: If you previously ran with a custom database name configured but data appeared missing, check your Neo4j home database — earlier writes may have landed there and may need to be migrated.

Neo4j custom database configuration now properly respected in all queries

Users with custom Neo4j databases will see queries correctly route to their configured database instead of the server's home database. This fixes inconsistent behavior where writes used the configured database but reads did not.

Evidence
+Fixed: Neo4j queries now respect the configured database Neo4jDriver.execute_query() previously ignored the driver's database setting and ran all queries (including searches) against the server's home database, while session-based writes used the configured one
