 When `Paging = false`, the field returns a plain list (`[Entity!]!`) instead of a Connection type.
 
+## Field Binding
+
+By default, HotChocolate exposes all public properties on an entity as GraphQL fields. When your entity has `[NotMapped]` aliases, DataLoader methods, or infrastructure methods that should not appear in the schema, use explicit binding:
+
+```csharp
+[TraxQueryModel(BindFields = FieldBindingBehavior.Explicit)]
+[Table("players", Schema = "game")]
+public class Player
+{
+    [Column("id")]
+    public long Id { get; set; }
+
+    [Column("display_name")]
+    public string DisplayName { get; set; } = "";
+
+    [NotMapped]
+    public string Alias => $"Player-{Id}";      // excluded from schema
+
+    public void AddToDbContext(GameDb db) { }    // excluded from schema
+}
+```
+
+With `BindFields = FieldBindingBehavior.Explicit`, only `Id` and `DisplayName` appear in the GraphQL schema. The `Alias` property and `AddToDbContext` method are excluded.
+
+| Value | Behavior |
+|-------|----------|
+| `Implicit` (default) | All public properties exposed (standard HotChocolate behavior) |
+| `Explicit` | Only properties with `[Column]` are exposed |
+
+FK fields added via `ObjectTypeExtension` (from custom TypeModules registered with `AddTypeModule<T>()`) still work when using explicit binding, since extensions are separate from the base type's field set.

 ## Name Derivation
 
 When `Name` is null, the field name is derived automatically:
