14
+
15
+ **State the math. Review the contract. Verify the code.**
16
+
17
+ Proofside is a small formal-verification sidecar for typed mathematical Python.
18
+ Declare the math a function is supposed to implement, review an explicit
19
+ contract, then ask Nagini/Viper whether the implementation satisfies it.
20
+
21
+ Proofside annotations keep equations and plain-language intent beside the code
22
+ but separate from the implementation body. An optional model can translate that
23
+ declared specification into an untrusted candidate contract without seeing the
24
+ body by default. No model is required: contracts may also be authored manually,
25
+ and a model never determines whether a proof succeeds.
26
+
27
+ ## Quick start
28
+
29
+ Proofside supports 64-bit Python 3.12–3.14 and requires a 64-bit Java 11+
30
+ runtime. From a checkout:
31
+
32
+ ```bash
33
+ python -m venv .venv
34
+ # Linux/macOS: source .venv/bin/activate
35
+ # Windows PowerShell: .venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
36
+ python -m pip install .
37
+ ```
38
+
39
+ Start with a reproducible model-free verification:
40
+
41
+ ```bash
42
+ proofside check examples/sidecar/shot_budget_plain.py::allocate_remaining \
43
+ --contract examples/sidecar/shot_budget_contract.json
44
+ ```
45
+
46
+ The contract assumes nonnegative counts with `first_bucket <= total_shots` and
47
+ guarantees a nonnegative result that conserves the declared budget. The command
48
+ prints the contract, `VERIFIED`, and an explicit proof boundary.
49
+
50
+ Now check the nearly identical broken implementation:
51
+
52
+ ```bash
53
+ proofside check examples/sidecar/shot_budget_plain_bad.py::allocate_remaining \
54
+ --contract examples/sidecar/shot_budget_contract.json
55
+ ```
56
+
57
+ Nagini reports `FAILED` because the extra `+ 1` prevents budget conservation.
58
+ Prefixing commands with `python -m proofside` is also supported.
59
+
60
+ ## Examples
61
+
62
+ | Path | Purpose |
63
+ | --- | --- |
64
+ | `examples/sidecar/` | Model-free Proofside JSON contract workflow: good and bad implementations share one explicit contract. |
65
+ | `examples/nagini/` | Direct handwritten Nagini contracts. Proofside supports this path but does not parse Nagini annotations back into its IR. |
66
+ | `examples/annotated/shot_budget_annotated.py` | Smallest annotation-first specification and proposal example. |
67
+ | `examples/annotated/model_workflow_stress.py` | Eight-function model-assisted stress fixture with both matching and intentionally mismatched implementations. Its annotations are normative; bodies are withheld by default. |
68
+ | `examples/research/` | Research-derived bookkeeping example with careful, limited provenance. |
69
+ | `examples/unsupported/` | A source boundary that Proofside explicitly reports as unsupported. |
70
+
71
+ ## Declare the intended math
72
+
73
+ Proofside recognizes two case-sensitive comments in the contiguous comment
74
+ block immediately above a supported function:
75
+
76
+ ```python
77
+ # proofside equation: result = total_shots - first_bucket
78
+ # proofside intent: Return the unallocated portion of the declared budget.
79
+ def allocate_remaining(total_shots: int, first_bucket: int) -> int:
80
+ return total_shots - first_bucket
81
+ ```
82
+
83
+ Equation and intent text is opaque, user-authored specification material.
84
+ Proofside preserves it rather than interpreting, normalizing, or checking the
85
+ mathematics at annotation-extraction time. Multiple equation or intent lines
86
+ are allowed.
87
+
88
+ The specification says what the function is supposed to mean; the implementation
89
+ is the object later checked against the accepted contract. They have different
90
+ roles.
91
+
92
+ ## From specification to proof
93
+
94
+ ```text
95
+ user-declared specification
96
+ equation / intent / selected sources

+

114
+
115
+ Nagini / Viper / Z3
116
+
117
+ VERIFIED / FAILED / UNSUPPORTED / ERROR
118
+ ```
119
+
120
+ Handwritten Nagini contracts provide a lower-level route directly to Nagini.
121
+ In every route, Nagini/Viper—not a model—decides whether proof obligations are
122
+ discharged.
123
+
124
+ To ask an explicitly selected model for a candidate:
125
+
126
+ ```bash
127
+ proofside propose examples/annotated/shot_budget_annotated.py::allocate_remaining \
128
+ --model-source api \
129
+ --model MODEL_NAME
130
+ ```
131
+
132
+ Without `--out`, this writes:
133
+
134
+ ```text
135
+ examples/annotated/.proofside/shot_budget_annotated.allocate_remaining.candidate.json
136
+ ```
137
+
138
+ The response must be exact JSON. Proofside strictly parses and structurally
139
+ validates it, but labels it `PROPOSED — NOT VERIFIED`. Review or edit that file,
140
+ then record the explicit choice to submit it for verification:
141
+
142
+ ```bash
143
+ proofside accept examples/annotated/shot_budget_annotated.py::allocate_remaining
144
+ ```
145
+
146
+ This retains the candidate and creates:
147
+
148
+ ```text
149
+ examples/annotated/.proofside/shot_budget_annotated.allocate_remaining.contract.json
150
+ ```
151
+
152
+ Acceptance means only “accepted for verification.” It neither asserts that the
153
+ contract is correct nor runs the verifier. Verification remains a separate
154
+ action:
155
+
156
+ ```bash
157
+ proofside check examples/annotated/shot_budget_annotated.py::allocate_remaining \
158
+ --contract examples/annotated/.proofside/shot_budget_annotated.allocate_remaining.contract.json
159
+ ```
160
+
161
+ An explicit `--out custom.json` remains available for proposal, and
162
+ `accept --candidate custom.json` validates a reviewed custom candidate into the
163
+ deterministic accepted path. `accept --replace` is required to replace an
164
+ existing accepted contract, and validation completes before replacement.
165
+
166
+ No model is needed for either contract route. A manually authored JSON contract
167
+ may be checked directly with `check --contract`; it does not have to pass through
168
+ `accept`. Advanced users may instead keep handwritten Nagini annotations in the
169
+ function:
170
+
171
+ ```bash
172
+ proofside check examples/nagini/shot_budget_good.py::allocate_remaining
173
+ ```
174
+
175
+ Proofside does not parse handwritten Nagini annotations into its contract IR.
176
+
177
+ ## Specification sources
178
+
179
+ `propose` and `propose-all` accept repeatable `--source` choices:
180
+
181
+ - `equation` — the function's `proofside equation` lines;
182
+ - `intent` — the function's `proofside intent` lines;
183
+ - `implementation` — the selected function body, only when explicitly chosen.
184
+
185
+ With no `--source`, Proofside uses every available annotation type in the fixed
186
+ order `equation`, then `intent`. It never silently falls back to the
187
+ implementation. An unannotated function therefore requires explicit
188
+ `--source implementation`; sources may also be combined.
189
+
190
+ The function name, parameter names and types, and return annotation remain
191
+ structural context. Unless `implementation` is selected, the model does not
192
+ receive the body, return expression, neighboring functions, imports, tests, or
193
+ other repository content.
194
+
195
+ ## Candidate and accepted artifacts
196
+
197
+ For `path/module.py::function`, the source-adjacent convention is:
198
+
199
+ ```text
200
+ path/.proofside/module.function.candidate.json
201
+ proposed or supplied for review; unaccepted; NOT VERIFIED
202
+
203
+ path/.proofside/module.function.contract.json
204
+ explicitly accepted for verification; still NOT VERIFIED
205
+ ```
206
+
207
+ Both files contain ordinary Proofside contract JSON without approval metadata.
208
+ Proposal never overwrites an existing candidate, accepts it, or verifies it.
209
+ Acceptance validates before writing, never calls a model or verifier, and leaves
210
+ the candidate in place.
211
+
212
+ ## Batch workflow
213
+
214
+ Batch commands are deterministic orchestration over independent single-function
215
+ operations. Only marked top-level functions participate; there is no batch
216
+ contract or multi-function proof.
217
+
218
+ ```bash
219
+ proofside propose-all examples/annotated/ --model-source api --model MODEL_NAME
220
+ ```
221
+
222
+ `propose-all` may make one sequential model request per marked function needing
223
+ a candidate. It uses each function's equation/intent annotations by default and
224
+ withholds each body unless `--source implementation` is selected. Candidates
225
+ are written independently; none is accepted or verified.
226
+
227
+ Review the candidate files and accept each chosen contract explicitly:
228
+
229
+ ```bash
230
+ proofside accept research/budget.py::remaining
231
+ ```
232
+
233
+ Then verify all marked functions with accepted source-adjacent contracts:
234
+
235
+ ```bash
236
+ proofside check-all research/
237
+ ```
238
+
239
+ One file or function failure does not stop later independent operations. Both
240
+ batch commands recursively inspect only the supplied files/directories, prune
241
+ hidden directories, deduplicate paths, and use deterministic ordering.
242
+
243
+ The conspicuous bypass below lets `check-all` fall back to a candidate only when
244
+ no accepted contract exists:
245
+
246
+ ```bash
247
+ proofside check-all research/ --allow-unreviewed
248
+ ```
249
+
250
+ Candidate-backed results are labeled `UNREVIEWED CONTRACT`, and the overall
251
+ exit remains nonzero even if every underlying proof verifies. An accepted
252
+ contract always wins over a candidate.
253
+
254
+ ## What a result means
255
+
256
+ - `VERIFIED`: Nagini/Viper discharged the displayed proof obligations.
257
+ - `FAILED`: one or more obligations were not proved. This does not by itself
258
+ mean that a concrete counterexample was produced.
259
+ - `UNSUPPORTED`: Proofside recognized input outside its deliberately narrow
260
+ source or contract boundary.
261
+ - `ERROR`: malformed input, missing tooling, or another setup/runtime problem
262
+ prevented meaningful verification.
263
+
264
+ `UNSUPPORTED` and `ERROR` do not imply that verification occurred.
265
+
266
+ A successful run establishes that the selected implementation satisfies the
267
+ displayed guarantees under the displayed assumptions, within the supported
268
+ Nagini/Viper semantics. Preconditions remain obligations on callers.
269
+
270
+ Formal verification does not establish that the contract captures the intended
271
+ mathematics, that a scientific model corresponds to reality, that an algorithm
272
+ is useful or optimal, or that an experiment is empirically valid. The researcher
273
+ remains responsible for the specification and its scientific meaning.
274
+
275
+ ## Supported boundary
276
+
277
+ The closed contract language supports:
278
+
279
+ - arithmetic values: parameters, integer literals, the result in
280
+ postconditions, addition, subtraction, negation, and multiplication by an
281
+ integer constant;
282
+ - logical formulas: `==`, `!=`, `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=`, `and`, `or`, `not`, and
283
+ implication;
284
+ - lists of preconditions (`requires`) and postconditions (`ensures`).
285
+
286
+ This is intentionally close to quantifier-free propositional linear integer
287
+ arithmetic. It excludes arbitrary variable-by-variable multiplication,
288
+ division, powers, quantifiers, arrays, floating point, and arbitrary Python
289
+ expressions.
290
+
291
+ For example, piecewise intent can be preserved directly:
292
+
293
+ ```text
294
+ value >= 0 -> result == value
295
+ value < 0 -> result == 0
296
+ ```
297
+
298
+ That says more than weakening the function to global bounds such as
299
+ `result >= 0`.
300
+
301
+ It contains no raw Python or Nagini snippets.
302
+
303
+ Proofside currently selects top-level synchronous functions with complete
304
+ parameter and return annotations. Decorated, async, nested, ambiguous, or
305
+ untyped targets are rejected. Sidecar mode also rejects function docstrings and
306
+ one-line bodies.
307
+
308
+ The selected function must be self-contained. Sidecar source generation does
309
+ not preserve arbitrary imports, helpers, closures, comments, or module state.
310
+ Proofside does not provide verification semantics for arbitrary Python, NumPy,
311
+ SciPy, or research frameworks.
312
+
313
+ ## Trust and model transport
314
+
315
+ Proofside strictly parses one closed contract representation, validates names
316
+ against the selected function, and lowers accepted JSON deterministically to a
317
+ temporary Nagini source. Nagini, Viper/Silicon, and Z3 perform formal
318
+ verification. Temporary verifier sources are removed after each run.
319
+
320
+ Model output and annotation payloads are untrusted input. A model receives only
321
+ the selected specification sources plus structural signature context:
322
+
323
+ - API mode sends that context remotely. The default OpenAI endpoint alone reads
324
+ `OPENAI_API_KEY` implicitly.
325
+ - A custom API endpoint must use HTTPS and explicitly name its credential with
326
+ `--api-key-env`; Proofside does not forward `OPENAI_API_KEY` automatically.
327
+ - Local mode defaults to `http://localhost:11434/v1` and is unauthenticated.
328
+ - Authenticated requests refuse every HTTP redirect so credentials cannot be
329
+ forwarded to a redirect target.
330
+
331
+ Proofside makes one non-streaming request with a finite timeout and no automatic
332
+ retry, repair, or verifier-feedback loop.
333
+
334
+ ## Research example
335
+
336
+ ```bash
337
+ proofside check examples/research/research_shot_budget.py::remaining_feature_shots \
338
+ --contract examples/research/research_shot_budget_contract.json
339
+ ```
340
+
341
+ This synthetic bookkeeping kernel is inspired by two motifs in the author's
342
+ research workflow: finite-shot Pauli feature acquisition and train/test
343
+ separation. It is not copied from that implementation and does not represent a
344
+ canonical allocation policy. The private research repository is not needed to
345
+ understand or run this self-contained example.
346
+
347
+ The contract proves a nonnegative remainder and conservation of the declared
348
+ counts under its assumptions. It does not prove that the split is optimal, that
349
+ the acquisition choices are scientifically appropriate, that the method
350
+ improves a downstream task, or that a policy transfers to hardware.

352
+ ## Development
353
+
354
+ See [`CONTRIBUTING.md`](CONTRIBUTING.md) for setup, tests, the code map, and
355
+ design constraints. If Nagini cannot find Java—especially on Windows—set
356
+ `JAVA_HOME` to the Java installation root.
357
+
358
+ See [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) for suggested contribution directions.
