Analytical workloads exhibit substantial semantic repetition, yet most production caches key entries by SQL surface form (text or AST), fragmenting reuse across BI tools, notebooks, and NL interfaces. We introduce a safety-first middleware cache for dashboard-style OLAP over star schemas that canonicalizes both SQL and NL into a unified key space -- the OLAP Intent Signature -- capturing measures, grouping levels, filters, and time windows. Reuse requires exact intent matches under strict schema validation and confidence-gated NL acceptance; two correctness-preserving derivations (roll-up, filter-down) extend coverage without approximate matching. Across TPC-DS, SSB, and NYC TLC (1,395 queries), we achieve 82% hit rate versus 28% (text) and 56% (AST) with zero false hits; derivations double hit rate on hierarchical queries.
