fix(proofs): a pinned Agda receipt for DOM-1/2, PWG labels, and no silent proof skips - #126
The 2026-11-09 estate proof audit found that proof-burrower's proof claims contradict each other and don't meet PROOF-POLICY §2.1 (canonical invocation, no silent skips) or §8 (Proof Witness Grades):
CLAUDE.md said "0 of 7 obligations proven; nothing at Grade 3".
docs/status/PROOF-STATUS.adoc said "2 of 14 proven; DOM-1/2 Grade 3".
DOM-1 and DOM-2 do type-check. But no receipt existed (source commit, digests, import cone) and no CI job checked them, so no grade could be derived for them.
Changes
New agda job in .github/workflows/proof-safety.yml:
Agda 2.7.0.1 and agda-stdlib 2.1, both pinned by digest. These are the same pins as echidna's agda-meta-checker.
The canonical --safe --without-K --cubical-compatible flags.
It prints a receipt: Agda version, commit, and the SHA-256 of each first-party source.
Its first green run on main makes DOM-1/2 PWG-3.
It uses only the actions/checkout pin already listed for this workflow, so actions.lock is unchanged.
verification/proofs/agda/burrow.agda-lib: new. Before it, checking the modules needed an ad hoc -l standard-library.
CLAUDE.md:
The old ladder ("2ii = two, the second non-DTT") is replaced with the §8 PWG definitions. §8 treats non-DTT as a +foundation-diverse tag, not a grade.
The status line now reads "2 of 14 proven; ungraded until a receipt exists".
The Rust row names Creusot with Pearlite contracts, and Verus (§1.2).
docs/status/PROOF-STATUS.adoc: the "Grade 3" claim is replaced by ungraded, with the path to PWG-3 spelled out.
docs/proof-debt.adoc §(c): it said "No first-party proof exists". DOM-1/2 are first-party proofs, and --safe rejects postulates.
Justfile:proof-check-{idris2,lean4,agda,coq} printed SKIP and exited 0 when the prover was missing, which is a silent pass. They now exit 1 with NOT RUN. No workflow calls them.
Testing
Both modules type-check under the canonical flags locally (Agda 2.6.3 + stdlib 1.7.3), using the new .agda-lib. The pinned 2.7.0.1 + 2.1 run belongs to the new CI job, because this environment can't install the pinned toolchain.
The workflow parses as YAML, and its jobs are isabelle and agda.
…lent proof skips
The 2026-11-09 proof audit found proof-burrower's proof claims
inconsistent with each other and with PROOF-POLICY §2.1/§8:
- CLAUDE.md said "0 of 7 obligations proven; nothing at Grade 3" while
PROOF-STATUS said "2 of 14 proven; DOM-1/2 Grade 3". DOM-1/2 do check,
but no receipt (commit, digests, import cone) and no CI job existed, so
the grade could not be derived. Both now say: 2 of 14 proven, ungraded
until a receipt exists.
- New `agda` job in proof-safety.yml: Agda 2.7.0.1 and agda-stdlib 2.1,
both digest-pinned (the same pins as echidna's agda-meta-checker), the
canonical --safe --without-K --cubical-compatible flags, and a printed
receipt (version, commit, SHA-256 of each first-party source). Its
first green run on main makes DOM-1/2 PWG-3. It uses only the
actions/checkout pin already listed for this workflow, so actions.lock
is unchanged.
- verification/proofs/agda/burrow.agda-lib added; before it, checking the
modules needed an ad hoc `-l standard-library`.
- The ladder in CLAUDE.md said "2ii = two, the second non-DTT"; §8 makes
non-DTT a +foundation-diverse tag, not a grade. Replaced with the §8 PWG
definitions. The Rust row names Creusot with Pearlite, and Verus (§1.2).
- proof-debt.adoc §(c) said "No first-party proof exists"; DOM-1/2 do,
and --safe rejects postulates.
- `just proof-check-{idris2,lean4,agda,coq}` printed SKIP and exited 0
when the prover was missing — a silent green, which §2.1 and this
repo's own rule forbid. They now exit 1 with NOT RUN. No workflow calls
them.
Checked locally: both modules type-check under the canonical flags on
Agda 2.6.3 + stdlib 1.7.3 using the new .agda-lib; the workflow parses.

Summary
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added automated checks for formal proofs using pinned tools and verified downloads. Results include details of the source commit and proof inputs.
Bug Fixes
Proof-check commands now fail when a required prover is unavailable instead of treating the check as skipped.
The full proof-check run now continues after failures and reports which checks failed or did not run.
Documentation
Updated proof status and grading guidance to clarify which proofs are checked, what evidence is required for grades, and where additional rechecks are pending.
The pull request adds a digest-verified CI job that checks two Agda modules. It changes local proof-check recipes to fail when a prover is absent, and updates repository guidance on proof grades and status.
Changes: Proof validation and status
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Configure and run Agda checks verification/proofs/agda/burrow.agda-lib, .github/workflows/proof-safety.yml
The library configuration declares the burrow library and its standard-library dependency. The workflow verifies pinned archives and checks Burrow/Trust.agda and Burrow/Ledger.agda with the specified safety flags.
Report incomplete local proof checks Justfile, .gitignore
The aggregate recipe runs all checkers and the dangerous-pattern scan, then reports any failed or unrun recipes. Individual recipes report missing provers as NOT RUN and exit with status 1. The ignore rules cover Coq/Rocq build artefacts.
Document proof grades and status CLAUDE.md, docs/proof-debt.adoc, docs/status/PROOF-STATUS.adoc
The documents describe PWG receipt requirements and state that DOM-1 and DOM-2 remain ungraded until the Agda workflow produces a receipt.

### Proofing (normative: `3-practice/PROOF-POLICY.adoc`)
- Proof Witness Grades (PROOF-POLICY §8, normative; always write the `PWG-`
prefix): `PWG-3` = the Agda source is checked under the §2.1 invocation
with a receipt (Agda version, stdlib pin, flags, import cone);
`PWG-2i` = plus one counted Rocq or Lean recheck (kernel-accepted and
§2.2 `RECONCILED`); `PWG-2ii` = plus both; `PWG-1` = every counted
witness has a current per-commit receipt from a headless, pinned run.
Engineering proofs (Creusot, Verus, SPARK, Idris2) carry no PWG (§8.1).
Grades are derived from receipts, never asserted, and never flattened
into a percentage.

Review follow-ups on the proof-honesty change:
- proof-safety.yml: the receipt now records the stdlib archive digest and
the transitive import cone (every interface the check wrote, stdlib and
first-party). --safe is coinfective, so the whole cone was checked
under it. curl is restricted to HTTPS, redirects included.
- Justfile: proof-check-all runs every checker even after a failure,
then fails naming each one that failed or did not run.
- PROOF-STATUS, CLAUDE.md: the 2026-11-01 run is labelled historical; a
PWG-3 grade needs a receipt for the current main commit and lapses if a
later run fails.
- proof-debt: the Grade 3 wording names the Mathesis grade; the "empty
proof set" sentence now acknowledges DOM-1 and DOM-2.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_019a95kk88TZ1iegsBK3kox3
CodeRabbit's review findings are addressed in 4e58142 and their threads are resolved. GitHub's abuse limit rejected the inline replies, so here is the summary:
Import cone (Major): the receipt now records the agda-stdlib archive digest and the full transitive import cone, meaning every interface file the check wrote, for stdlib and first-party modules. --safe is coinfective, so every module in the cone was itself checked under --safe, which excludes postulates and unsafe pragmas without a textual scan.
proof-check-all (Major): it now runs all five checkers and exits non-zero naming each one that failed or did not run.
Current receipt (Minor, CLAUDE.md): the grade requires a receipt for the current main commit and lapses if a later run fails or cannot be reproduced.
Historical check (Minor, PROOF-STATUS): the 2026-11-01 local run is labelled historical, and the CI receipt is the current verification.
Outside-diff minors (proof-debt.adoc): "Grade 3" now names the Mathesis grade and points to PROOF-POLICY §8, and the "empty proof set" sentence now acknowledges DOM-1 and DOM-2.
Also fixed:
5df28e1 removes Coq build artefacts that 4e58142 committed by mistake, and ignores them from now on.
All toolchain downloads now use curl --proto '=https' --proto-redir '=https'. That is what cleared the SonarCloud security gate.
