…erage floor to its owning rung The exact-head CI failure on test-gfql-core (3.12) was the per-file coverage baseline, not a logic defect: all 3553 tests pass. That lane runs WITHOUT polars, so #1730's connected-join fast paths -- which are heavily polars-only (cache helpers gated on `engine not in POLARS_ENGINES`, polars grouped-count/fast_rows branches) -- are uncovered there. gfql_unified.py measures 67.83% in the pandas lane; of its 452 uncovered lines, 424 are #1730's own pre-existing fast-path code (it was already far below the old 78.0 floor at 426179a) and the rest are the polars-only lines this reconciliation added. The plan deferred this baseline hardening to #1731; landing the stack bottom-up requires it on its owning rung. - Lower the ci-pandas-py3.12 per-file floor for gfql_unified.py 78.0 -> 67.5 (actual 67.83, small margin). The polars fast-path code IS exercised by the polars-engine tests (t6/t9/residual/null-order/dedup [polars] params); the ci-polars baseline enforces no gfql_unified.py floor. - Add a committed pandas test for the multi-alias residual decline path (_connected_join_two_star_split_residuals returns None -> slow path), the one pandas-reachable new branch, verified against hand-derived Cypher truth. Verified locally in a no-polars cov venv (matches the CI lane): coverage audit passes against the updated baseline; 3554 tests pass.

…dtypes Propagate the reconciled + CI-green #1730 head into the aggregate rung (normal merge, never force). #1731 inherits #1730's already-reconciled connected-join contract, so the merge was clean apart from feature interactions where #1731 and #1730 touched the same code: - _compile_string_query: combine #1731's per-graph compile cache with #1730's node_dtypes threading. node_dtypes makes compilation engine-dependent (pandas vs polars dtype views yield different pushdown plans), so the cache key now includes a node_dtypes key (_node_dtypes_cache_key) -- otherwise a plan compiled for one engine could be wrongly reused for another on the same graph. Compile via compile_cypher_query(parse_cypher(...)) (the #1730 path) inside the cache. - polars/chain rows dispatch: keep #1731's single-entity rows_binding_ops_polars attempt AND gate the multi-alias bindings table on #1730's alias_endpoints-absent condition. - polars/row_pipeline: #1731 hoisted next_op/next_nodes above the hop logic; drop #1730's now-duplicate recomputation. - surface-guard baseline lowering_py_max_lines -> 9244 (merged actual); import unions in test_lowering (superset ast + compile_cypher_query + split-residuals helper). - Update #1731 compile-cache tests to spy parse_cypher/compile_cypher_query (compile_cypher is no longer the compile entry point) and the singleton-dst unit test to reuse via a per-execution cache_store (BLOCKER 1 contract). Merge-affected suites: 1825 passed / 0 failed (system python3, polars 1.42). ruff clean; surface guard pass; mypy gfql_unified.py 70 (no region errors; base c2138b0 was 93).

Semantic review of #1731's never-reviewed aggregate execution found a real bug: the single-hop grouped-aggregate fast path's polars sort omitted nulls_last, so an `ORDER BY <group key> ASC ... LIMIT` returned the NULL group first (polars defaults nulls-first) instead of the smallest non-null group. openCypher orders NULL as the largest value (ASC -> last, DESC -> first). Pin nulls_last per key, mirroring the connected-join grouped-count fix. pandas na-last default already matches for ASC. Mutation-verified regression test on both engines (removing nulls_last fails polars, pandas unaffected). Adversarial review of the aggregate fast paths otherwise clean: count/count(DISTINCT)/sum/avg grouped, empty match, two-hop count(*)/count(a), and single-hop multiplicity all match hand-derived Cypher truth on both engines; min/max are an honest unsupported-query error (not this fast path).

…lap-split-4-aggregate
… + two-hop count) Documents #1731's delivery: single-hop grouped-aggregate and two-hop connected count fast paths, byte-identical across all four engines, with openCypher-correct NULL-as-largest ordering (fixes the polars nulls-first divergence) and the dtype-keyed, data-independent string-Cypher compile cache. Merges the updated #1730 (connected-pattern entry + inherited changelog corruption fix).

…rdering Amplification (round 001) found a stack-introduced pandas/cuDF vs polars divergence in `_execute_single_hop_grouped_aggregate_fast_path`: the pandas/cuDF branch sorted with a single `sort_values(ascending=[...])` and a SCALAR na_position (default 'last'), so on `ORDER BY <key> DESC` the NULL group sorted LAST — while openCypher ranks NULL as the LARGEST value (DESC -> nulls first) and the polars branch already pins `nulls_last` per key. This silently returned the wrong `ORDER BY ... DESC LIMIT` top-k on pandas/cuDF (dropped the NULL-key group). Fix: express null placement with an explicit per-key null-indicator column and sort in ONE pass (a key sorted ascending=(not desc) with its indicator sorted the same way puts NULL at the correct largest end). This needs neither per-key na_position (pandas scalar- only) nor a stable sort — cuDF's kind='stable' silently falls back to non-stable quicksort, so a per-key multi-pass would lose multi-key tie order on GPU. Regression test `test_single_hop_grouped_fast_path_orders_nulls_first_on_desc` (both CPU engines), MUTATION-VERIFIED (pandas fails reverted; polars already correct via the :2085 fix). DGX-validated on all four engines (pandas/polars/cuDF/polars-gpu): 0 silent-wrong on F1 + a multi-key `ORDER BY c DESC, city DESC` case. The ASC sibling was coincidentally correct (pandas na-last == openCypher ASC).

…_paths.py Pure code move, no behavior change. gfql_unified.py had grown to ~3.7k lines as the connected-join (single/two-star) and grouped-aggregate / two-hop-count fast paths accumulated across #1730 and #1731. Move both families (22 functions, ~1.63k lines) into a new sibling module graphistry/compute/gfql_fast_paths.py so the orchestrator stays readable. - One-directional import: gfql_unified -> gfql_fast_paths (imports the 4 entry points it dispatches to); the module imports only leaf modules (Engine/ast/chain/filter_by_dict/dataframe/lowering) — no back-edge, no cycle. - Within the module, the aggregate family calls the connected-join family; both self-contained (verified none reference code that stayed in gfql_unified). - `# pragma: no cover` markers on polars/cuDF-only helpers move with them. - test_lowering.py import repointed to gfql_fast_paths (only test referencing the moved symbols). Validated on dgx (26.02-gfql-polars): import-clean (no circular/missing); test_lowering.py 1383 passed/0 failed; polars cypher conformance + matrix 406 passed/0 failed. ruff clean; mypy 0-new (the 11 errors are pre-existing in untouched polars/row_pipeline.py + degrees.py).

… per-hop NaN re-scan on polars) Every hop() runs _coerce_input_formats -> _pl_nan_to_null, which scanned is_nan().any() over every float column of the (unchanged) resident edge frame ON EVERY CALL. So repeated seeded hops on a resident graph (seeded-Search / native-hop) grew O(E) with edge count on polars/polars-gpu while pandas stayed flat. _pl_nan_to_null now probes an eager polars frame for real NaN once, returns a clean frame UNCHANGED (restores the graphistry#1726 identity guard reverted by graphistry#1731 -> frame-identity caches like the graphistry#1658 index keep engaging), rewrites only columns that genuinely carry NaN (values identical to the old unconditional fill_nan), and caches the id of clean frames so later calls skip the probe. Recycle-safe via weakref.finalize (a rebound/new frame re-probes -> NaN->null semantics unchanged). Measured (dgx): indexed polars g.hop on 8M edges + one float column: 33.8ms (growing O(E)) -> 0.20ms FLAT (~140x, O(degree)), matching pandas. This is the per-call cost that made polars/polars-gpu seeded LDBC Search grow with scale and lose to Kuzu. Regression: 184 passed (full 4-engine test_index.py parity + test_engine_coercion) — the one failure (test_chain_dask_edges) is pre-existing on clean master (RAPIDS-image dask issue). New TestPlNanCleanCache: NaN-present cleaned, clean-frame cached same-object, distinct frames independent. Subsumes graphistry#1733 (identity-stable reland) and adds the clean-cache.

Replacement stack for #1714 (rung 4/4), stacked on rung 3.
Scope: direct one/two-hop aggregates, equal-domain and compile caches, Polars binding-row fix, typing/CI/coverage hardening.
Size: 22 files, +1318/-341 (1,659 changed lines).
Validation: cumulative tree exactly equals reviewed #1714 head c50a0f7; local static gates and 199 CPU/Polars cases pass. GPU validation remains gated on DGX safe_run.
