**Strict-parity evaluation** is a methodological contract for comparing graph-aware retrieval systems against non-graph baselines. In a strict-parity comparison, the **encoder**, **candidate pool**, **cutoff $$k$$**, **matching rule**, and **split policy** are fixed across systems in the headline numbers, so any reported difference is attributable to the graph component rather than to interface mismatches. **Token caps** (per-passage or per-query length budgets) are reported separately as a diagnostic rather than folded into the headline comparison, because they conflate interface choices with graph structure. The contract is designed to surface cases where prior graph-RAG gains came from a richer retrieval interface rather than from graph reasoning itself.
