    Summary: We construct maps on hat Heegaard Floer homology for cobordisms decorated with graphs. The graph TQFT allows for cobordisms with disconnected ends. Our construction uses Juhász's sutured Floer TQFT [\textit{A. Juhász}, Algebr. Geom. Topol. 6, 1429--1457 (2006; Zbl 1129.57039), Adv. Math. 299, 940--1038 (2016; Zbl 1358.57021)]. We compute the maps for several elementary graph cobordisms. As an application, we compute the action of the fundamental group on hat Heegaard Floer homology.
