assert-no-proof-block

assert-no-proof-block is a cursor rule for Cursor from briangmilnes/APAS-VERUS. It costs 106 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A Verus rule explaining that ordinary assert statements in executable Rust functions can be written without a proof block.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps distinguish executable assertions from proof-mode operations in Verus code.
Why use it?
It prevents unnecessary proof blocks around checks that are already part of executable code.

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 A, and why

assert-no-proof-block scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 5d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

In Verus, assert statements inside executable (fn) code do not need to be wrapped in a proof { } block. Only proof-mode calls (like lemma invocations, reveal, ghost variable bindings with let ghost, etc.) require a proof { } block. Plain assert(...) can appear directly in exec code.

Changes

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.
