lean-beam AGENTS.md

Instructions for a pre-release Lean plugin, wrapper, and local broker. Lean is a programming language and proof assistant used to write code and verify mathematical proofs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing the Beam plugin, its request handling, backend connection, synchronization, diagnostics, or public API.
Why use it?
They set priorities and API limits that help agents make small, stable, type-safe changes without exposing unnecessary internal details.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade C, and why

lean-beam AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Purpose

This repository hosts the pre-stable Beam Lean plugin, wrapper, and local broker tooling.

Treat the repo as public but still experimental: prefer conservative, well-tested changes over feature sprawl.

Current public status and limitations live in docs/STATUS.md. Compatibility policy lives in docs/COMPATIBILITY.md. User setup lives in docs/SETUP.md. Exact MCP behavior lives in docs/MCP.md, and exact sync/save/diagnostic behavior lives in docs/SYNC_AND_DIAGNOSTICS.md.

Product Priorities

In order:

  1. dead-simple public API
  2. rock-solid stability
  3. type-safe boundaries
  4. isolation of each request
  5. performance

Performance matters, but not at the cost of correctness or stability.

Public API Guardrails

The core public request should remain conceptually:

  • runAt(pos, "lean text")

Rules:

  • no required public mode flag for command vs tactic execution
  • backend selection is internal
  • keep request and response structures small and typed
  • use transport errors for invalid params, stale state, cancellation, and internal faults
  • avoid exposing internal execution details unless a concrete client need forces it

Follow-up handle APIs exist, but they are pre-stable extensions around the basic request, not the main story of the project.

Execution Model

Each request should behave like an isolated sandbox:

  • never mutate the document's real elaboration state
  • never depend on side effects from a previous request
  • never leak internal mutable state through the base API
  • discard derived execution state unless the request explicitly stores a follow-up handle

Testing Priorities

Tests matter more than cleverness.

Focus on:

  • position selection and boundary behavior
  • whitespace and comment positions
  • proof-vs-command basis selection
  • stale snapshot and file-changed behavior
  • nested tactic cases
  • no state leakage across requests
  • cancellation behavior
  • handle invalidation when handle behavior is touched

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

lean-beam AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository leanprover/lean-beam (24 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 1,599 tokens to every session, about $0.0080 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
