I'm getting this too

client.mutate's update option/callback is intended to be used only when you want to interact with the data store (cache). The update callback itself gets sent a proxy to access the data store, as well as the result of the mutation. When you're using no-cache you shouldn't be interacting with the data store at all. If you want to fire actions after the mutation has completed, use the Promise returned from the client.mutate call.

I am marking this as a bug though, since the docs really aren't very clear about this. I'll get them updated. Thanks!

Addressed in #3774. Thanks!
