DEV-1826: functional aggregation form is first-class everywhere; same-model expression aggregation - #355

…on position, DEV-1740 machinery + naming reuse, quiet-call retirement, refreshed anchors)
…ons-support-functional-form
…n; same-model expression aggregation Parser-native dispatch: agg(col, args) collapses to the identical AggCall as col:agg(args) for every builtin/alias/custom aggregation, with token-aware star handling (count(*), count(customers.*)), first/last arbitration by first-arg shape, and unknown-name deferral to binding. The binder validates the aggregation name globally before per-column gates (star/expression bogus names get the standard error, with a scalar-allowlist hint on near-misses). Same-model expression aggregation — sum(amount - cost) — binds the row-level expression onto AggregateKey via the existing ValueKey composites, renders AGG(<expr>) across all dispatch kinds, and derives its result key through the shared computed-dimension sanitizer (rename override, loud duplicate-key error for colliding distinct expressions). Cross-model refs, filtered-column operands, nested aggregations/transforms, and confidently non-numeric expressions are rejected with clear errors; per-column gates stay advisory for expressions. FUNC_STYLE_AGG is retired: rule, helpers, quiet rewriter calls (stage_planner, schema_drift, memories resolver), normalize_model, and the reachable-custom-aggregation BFS plumbing are deleted; save preserves the author's spelling. Order coercion keeps functional text via placeholder + raw_formula, resolved at binding. Entity refs (memories, recommend_root_model) accept the functional spelling through one shared parse-based splitter. Docs: equivalence section + mapping table (references.md), expression aggregation (formulas.md, aggregations example), rewritten slack-normalization and parsing architecture pages, skills and help-memory updates.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis change adds parser-native functional aggregation syntax across query and model surfaces. It supports aggregation over same-model expressions, removes legacy rewrite normalization, updates binding and SQL rendering, and adds specifications, documentation, and parity tests.

Correctness: render expression-source aggregates functionally in canonical text (no collision with amount-cost:sum); reject first/last over an expression source at binding; reject boolean operands for numeric-only aggs (+ tests). Sonar: drop redundant UnknownFunctionError catch; split _formula_entity_tokens to cut cognitive complexity; narrow 14 pytest.raises blocks to the single asserted call. Nitpicks/docs: iif_case_chain keyword-only; MD040 fence; shared warning filter; non-vacuous assertion; fail-closed cross-model-operand guard (+ sweep allowlist); partition_by and saved-formula doc corrections.

@coderabbitai review |
Extend the numeric-only gate to reject boolean-returning scalar operands: like(...) and iif(...) whose branches are boolean (sum(like(...)) / sum(iif(c, True, False)) previously reached SQL gen as SUM(<bool>), which errors on Postgres/SQL Server); iif with numeric branches stays allowed. + tests. Move the cross-model-operand fail-closed guard to the top of _column_ast so a pathed ColumnSqlKey can't expand against the host relation before the check.

- test_expression_aggregations: require both parity dry-runs to return "ok" (non-vacuous) instead of only rejecting AttributeError and comparing types. - slayer-query.md: note the cross-model first/last + partition_by deferral (stage_planner still raises NotImplementedError), matching 03_aggregations.md.

…ion.md save_model no longer runs normalize_model (removed this change); it persists the model verbatim, preserving the author's formula spelling. Flagged by Codex and CodeRabbit on PR #355.

Every aggregation writable as
col:agg(args)is now equally writable asagg(col, args)— every position, every column, every aggregation (builtin / alias / custom), no exceptions — and the functional form additionally accepts a same-model scalar expression:sum(amount - cost).Closes DEV-1826.
What changed
Parser-native equivalence.
parse_exprdispatches the functional spelling to the identicalAggCallnode as colon syntax (raw token preserved; healing at binding), with a token-aware star pre-pass (count(*),count(customers.*)),first/lastarbitration by first-arg shape (last(balance)is the aggregation,last(sum(revenue))the transform), and unknown-name deferral to the binder (parity withx:whatever— custom aggregations need no parser plumbing). Because both spellings collapse to one node, SQL, result keys, naming, and cross-spelling measure/filter matching are spelling-insensitive by construction — including computed dimensions (identicalpartition_by=guards) and mixed-grain arithmetic.Global name validation before gates. The binder heals + validates the aggregation name for every source shape before per-column gates, so
*:bogus/bogus(*)/bogus(a - b)get the standard unknown-aggregation error instead of escaping to SQL generation; near-miss scalar typos (rond) hint the scalar allowlist. Custom aggregation names may no longer shadow scalar functions (rejected at model validation, like transform names).Same-model expression aggregation.
agg(<scalar expr>)over bare in-scope columns (host model or stage outputs), scalar-allowlist calls, arithmetic, and literals — every position, composing withwindow=/partition_by=, parametric and custom aggregations, rename, HAVING filters, and order. The bound tree reuses the DEV-1740 row-levelValueKeycomposites as a newAggregateKeysource variant; SQL rendersAGG(<row-level expr>)through the shared row-expression renderer across all dispatch kinds (simple/distinct/percentile/dialect-hook/custom{value}). Result keys derive from the shared computed-dimension sanitizer (sum(amount - cost)→orders.amount_cost_sum, formatting-insensitive, hash-capped; rename overrides; colliding distinct expressions fail loudly). Rejected with clear errors: cross-model refs / dotted paths inside expressions (→ DEV-1832), filtered-column operands (→ DEV-1832), nested aggregations/transforms, confidently non-numeric expressions under numeric-only aggregations. Per-column gates stay advisory for expressions.FUNC_STYLE_AGG retired. The slack rule, its helpers, the quiet
func_style_agg_to_coloncalls (stage planner, schema drift, memories resolver),normalize_model, and the reachable-custom-aggregation BFS plumbing are deleted;save_modelpersists the author's spelling verbatim. Order coercion preserves functional text via placeholder +raw_formula, resolved at binding (the DEV-1733 bare-alias-arithmetic rejection is preserved). Entity refs (memories resolution,recommend_root_model) acceptsum(orders.amount)through one shared parse-based splitter; expression text is not an entity. The legacycore/formula.pyrewriter stays for importers (consolidation: DEV-1831).Docs. Equivalence section + mapping table in
references.md; functional-spelling and expression-aggregation sections informulas.mdand the aggregations example;slack-normalization.mdandparsing.mdarchitecture pages rewritten; skills (slayer-query.md,slayer-models.md— dead(amount - cost):sumfixed tosum(amount - cost)) and the aggregations help memory updated. Docs stay colon-primary (functional-primary flip: DEV-1830).Tests
TDD: the suites landed first (parser identity over all builtins/aliases, position parity with byte-identical SQL + result keys + executed-row parity, binder validation, expression aggregation incl. key-traversal fail-closed checks, retirement, entity refs, Tier-1 integration fixtures). Full non-integration suite: 14,894 passed, 0 failed; ruff clean;
openspec validate --strictgreen; SQLite integration functional cases pass live.Deliberate test reworks (sanctioned by tasks 1.5/5.1): legacy FUNC_STYLE_AGG slack tests inverted into first-class pins;
*:bogusnow pins the standard unknown-aggregation message per the delta spec; the new display-classification test asserts identity with the colon twin per the pre-existing response-meta contract (unformatted preserving measures omit attributes entries); the row-expr fail-closed raise added to the DEV-1838 expressiveness allowlist.Follow-ups
