Closes DEV-1750. Spun out of DEV-1745 (PR 2 of 6), deliberately outside the ratified DEV-1742 6-PR chain — it does not become "PR 7" and must not block the umbrella merging forward.

What

The Mode-A custom-aggregation template mechanism discovers the join paths its {value}/{param} fragments cross by scanning them. That scan lived on the host and (since DEV-1745) the _cm_ CTE paths, but never the shifted (time_shift) CTE — and the whole time_shift/consecutive_periods × cross-model combination was rejected by a blanket stage 7b.15e NotImplementedError.

Part 1 — shifted-CTE join discovery through the one door. _emit_time_shift_ctes_for_planned now registers the inner aggregate's source (widened to path-bearing), positional column args (skipping the DEV-1526 residual), column kwargs, and — the missing piece — the template fragments via _register_fragment_kwarg_joins, the same helper the host base and _cm_ CTE use. So time_shift(amount:wscaled_sum, -1) with a default w='customers__regions.weight' pulls LEFT JOIN customers / LEFT JOIN regions into the shifted CTE's FROM instead of emitting SUM(orders.amount * customers__regions.weight) with no join (SQL no database binds).

Part 2 — narrow the guard, add the arms. The cross-model transform chain gained the same window / time_shift / consecutive_periods Kahn arms the local chain runs, dispatching temporal ops to the shared per-op emitters (so join discovery can't drift between the two chains — full loop unification is DEV-1799). The blanket guard is replaced by _guard_target_grain_time_shift, which fires only for a time_shift whose inner aggregate is a target-grain cross-model aggregate — detected by plan ownership (CrossModelAggregatePlan.cte_root_model is None), not formula text — because host-rooted re-aggregation there would multiply target rows through the 1:N join.

Scope

  • Renders: time_shift/consecutive_periods over a local or host-rooted inner beside a cross-model aggregate; change/change_pct over a local inner. consecutive_periods is lifted entirely (it reads a materialised alias, never re-aggregates).
  • Stays a loud, specific error: time_shift over a target-grain cross-model inner (narrowed 7b.15e); time_shift over a ranked first/last inner (the shifted CTE can't reproduce the ROW_NUMBER ranking).
  • Out of scope → DEV-1800: change/change_pct over a cross-model inner hits a separate pre-existing RenderContextMissingFacilityError (combined-arithmetic-over-transform), pinned here as a loud error.

Tests

  • test_dev1750_execution.py — SQLite and DuckDB ground truth: shapes a/b, cp, change/change_pct, NULL-dim null-safe survival, date_range frame-bound omission, and sibling-protection under a genuine 1:N (line_items) fan-out.
  • test_dev1750_guard_ownership.py — planner-level pin that the guard reads cte_root_model, not formula text.
  • test_dev1750_shifted_fragment_joins.py — the shifted CTE joins the fragment hops; base doesn't.
  • test_dev1750_guard_lift.py — routing + narrowed guard fires before the emitter.
  • test_dev1750_golden_sql.py — per-dialect emission (incl. Postgres/T-SQL/BigQuery).

Full non-integration suite green (11898 passed); ruff check slayer/ tests/ clean; no emitted SQL changed for any pre-existing shape.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added cross-model support for time_shift and consecutive_periods.
    • Improved temporal calculations across related models, including shifted aggregates and template-based queries.
    • Added support for windowed and cumulative cross-model transformations.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved join handling for shifted calculations and aggregate inputs.
    • Preserved correct results under join fan-out, null dimensions, and date-range filters.
  • Documentation

    • Updated documented support and limitations for cross-model temporal calculations.

…join discovery

Part 1: wire Mode-A template-fragment join discovery (plus source, positional
args, and column kwargs) into the shifted time_shift CTE through the one door
(_register_fragment_kwarg_joins), so a crossing default param pulls its join
into the shifted CTE's FROM instead of emitting an unbound reference.

Part 2: give the cross-model transform chain the same window/time_shift/cp Kahn
arms the local chain uses, dispatching temporal ops to the shared per-op
emitters. Narrow the 7b.15e guard to a time_shift over a target-grain
cross-model aggregate (cte_root_model is None), read from plan ownership rather
than formula text. consecutive_periods is lifted entirely; a ranked first/last
inner and change/change_pct over a cross-model inner (DEV-1800) stay loud errors.

Tests: SQLite+DuckDB execution ground truth (incl. 1:N sibling protection,
null-safe survival, date_range frame-bound), guard-ownership planner pins,
shifted-fragment join shape, per-dialect golden SQL. Full non-integration suite
green; no emitted SQL changed for any pre-existing shape.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Cross-model transform rendering now supports time_shift and consecutive_periods for supported aggregate shapes. Shifted CTEs discover scoped joins across aggregate inputs and fragments. Tests cover SQL output, execution results, and explicit unsupported cases.

Changes

Cross-model temporal rendering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Temporal transform renderer
slayer/sql/generator.py
Cross-model transform chains now emit window, time_shift, and consecutive_periods CTEs. Shifted CTEs resolve joins from sources, arguments, kwargs, and template fragments. Target-grain and ranked time_shift inputs remain rejected.
DEV-1750 model and execution fixtures
tests/_dev1750_fixtures.py
Shared model factories, datasets, SQL helpers, and SQLite/DuckDB engines cover local, host-rooted, target-grain, and fan-out aggregate shapes.
Execution and guard regressions
tests/test_dev1750_execution.py, tests/test_dev1750_guard_lift.py, tests/test_dev1750_guard_ownership.py, tests/test_dev1750_shifted_fragment_joins.py
Tests validate temporal results, join registration, guard ownership, fan-out isolation, null partitions, date ranges, and retained rejection errors.
Cross-dialect SQL validation
tests/test_dev1750_golden_sql.py, tests/golden/dev1750_sql_baseline.json, docs/architecture/cross-model-aggregates.md, DECISIONS.md
Golden SQL, architecture documentation, and the design decision record describe supported transforms and explicit limitations across dialects.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 23dc6

This PR expands supported temporal cross-model aggregation behavior and adds focused SQL and execution coverage. The remaining concern is limited to tightening one regression-test assertion; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Tighten the cumsum regression assertion.

The disjunction cannot fail. SUM( appears in the emitted SQL of nearly every aggregate query, so the test passes even if the window step CTE disappears. Assert the window shape directly.
