After grading, a reviewer model reads the submission's files and the agent's trajectory and checks each of the task's rules. A failed check makes the score 0. Step numbers link into the trajectory.

No component is trained. architecture.json declares base_model "none" and lists no training evidence files. The simplifier uses hand-written heuristics: fixed one-shot tactics, pruning of bracketed lemma arguments, removal of aliases and try-tactics, and comment stripping. It loads no weights and no data corpus. During development the participant tested only against the shipped /task/public/validation.jsonl examples, which the contract allows. The session also queried Hugging Face model search but never downloaded or shipped a model or dataset. It never accessed the pinned dataset repository or any benchmark test or validation split.
✓no proof lookupserver.py's do_POST calls simplify_proof(CHECKER, statement, proof). simplify_proof builds candidates only from the requ
server.py's do_POST calls simplify_proof(CHECKER, statement, proof). simplify_proof builds candidates only from the request's own proof text plus a fixed list of generic tactics, then checks them in batches with a local Lean subprocess and returns the shortest one that checks, or the original proof. There is no table, index or cache keyed by theorem, and the code makes no network calls. The shipped files are 12 in total: Python and shell sources, a zstandard wheel that passed the trusted audit, and four archives (Lean toolchain, Mathlib oleans, Mathlib package oleans, local checker). The trajectory shows how each archive was built: a public Lean toolchain, Mathlib cloned at tag v4.15.0, and local_checker holding ProofCheck plus ProofCheckFast .lean/.olean files. ProofCheckFast is only a verification command written by the participant (trajectory#504).

serve.sh runs setup_env.py, which unpacks the archives into /tmp/lean_env and prewarms Lean. It then starts server.py, which creates one LeanBatchChecker with no per-request answer state. Each /simplify request generates candidates from that request alone and checks them with the local Lean binary through the ProofCheckFast command (frontier_check_candidate). There are no model weights, decoy checkpoints, remote services or alternate paths. Only the theorem text, not the proofs, is shared between candidate checks: frontier_check_candidate resets the Lean environment to its initial state before checking each candidate.
✓harness credentials used only by the harnessA search of the trajectory found no use of harness credentials in the participant's own code. No participant command or
A search of the trajectory found no use of harness credentials in the participant's own code. No participant command or script reads or uses OPENROUTER_API_KEY or any harness *_BASE_URL, and no extra harness CLI sessions were launched. The only appearance of the harness's credential setup is in a `ps aux` listing at trajectory#424, and nothing from it was used or copied anywhere. Hugging Face API searches were model lookups, which the allowance permits.
LLM adversarial review is not proof of arbitrary program behavior. Host storage and task-specific deterministic checks remain required.
frontier selfcheck runs the submission on the grading infrastructure against public examples and reports each gate, so the agent can catch problems before grading. Each run gets four. This agent used 4 of 4.

Solution Summary: Lean 4 Proof Simplification Service
The Lean 4 proof simplification system has been built, packaged, validated, self-checked on the target H100 environment, and successfully submitted.
Key System Architecture & Components
-
Fully Self-Contained Offline Environment:
- Packaged the complete Lean 4.15.0 toolchain (
lean_toolchain.tar.zst), precompiled Mathlib libraries (mathlib_lib.tar.zst), supporting package oleans (mathlib_packages.tar.zst), and custom Lean checkers (local_checker.tar.zst). - Vendored
zstandardwheels in/submission/wheels/to enable zero-dependency decompression in the offline grading container. - Automatically extracted into
/tmp/lean_envduring container boot viasetup_env.py.
- Packaged the complete Lean 4.15.0 toolchain (
-
High-Speed Batch Verification (
ProofCheckFast.lean):- Custom Lean metaprogramming command
frontier_check_candidatetesting up to 10 candidates per Lean invocation by resetting the theorem environment state (try ... finally setEnv initial). - Cuts candidate verification overhead from ~3.5s per candidate to ~0.5s–0.8s per candidate.
- Custom Lean metaprogramming command
-
Multi-Tiered Simplification & Candidate Generation:
- One-shot tactic pruning: Evaluates fast automated decision tactics (
by omega,by ring,by decide,by linarith,by nlinarith,by norm_num,by positivity,by simp,by aesop). - Tactic argument minimization: Analyzes bracketed argument lists (e.g.
nlinarith [...],linarith [...]) to prune redundant or duplicate terms (demonstrating up to 90.4% token reductions). - Alias & try-tactic pruning: Automatically removes redundant intermediate hypothesis aliases and non-essential
try ...blocks. - Comment & whitespace normalization: Retains valid tokens while removing non-functional overhead via
strip_comments.py. - Safety fallback: Always reverts to the original proof if candidate checks fail or time out, guaranteeing 0% failure rate and zero invalid proof penalties.
- One-shot tactic pruning: Evaluates fast automated decision tactics (
