Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00057 | $0.14325 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.07162 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.02865 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.01432 |
Grade A, and why
proofcheck 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 9d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 1,035 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
ProofCheck — Mathematical Proof Verification for Statistics/ML Theory Papers
🔬 Model Recommendation: Run this skill on Claude Opus for best results. Mathematical proof verification requires deep reasoning. If your session is not on Opus, run
/model opusbefore invoking. The skill will also delegate heavy reasoning to Opus sub-agents internally when the Agent tool is used.
Systematically check proofs in long technical appendices using a structured, evidence-based methodology with multi-pass verification.
Based on: https://github.com/maweiruc/proofcheck-stat-paper
Context: $ARGUMENTS
Core Objective
Given the paper's stated assumptions, definitions, and cited results, does each claimed theorem follow with the stated constants, rates, quantifiers, probability levels, domains, and edge cases?
Goal: Find correctness issues — NOT summarize the proof. Never silently repair proofs.
Operating Principles
- Evidence First: Every conclusion cites exact page/section/equation/line numbers. No vague references.
- Small Proof Units: One definition, one lemma, one proof at a time. Never verify 20+ pages at once.
- Separate Facts/Inferences/Suspicions: Verified (checked + referenced), Inferred (likely but unchecked), Suspect (possible gap).
- No Silent Repairs: If proof proves B but claims A, record the mismatch explicitly.
- Human Owns Final Judgment: Agent indexes, cross-checks, and reconstructs. Human reviews all S0/S1 issues.
Severity System, Verification Statuses, and Provability Triage
The S0-S3 severity system, the five verification statuses (Verified / Conditionally verified / Gap found / Incorrect / Not checked), and the three-class provability triage (PROVABLE AS STATED / PROVABLE AFTER WEAKENING / NOT CURRENTLY JUSTIFIED) are defined in ../stat-shared-references/proof-closure-machinery.md. That file is the single source of truth shared with proof-repair and proof-writer.
Operational note for this skill:
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.

proofcheck is a skill published in the GitHub repository gyf9712/stat-theory-skills (9 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 57 tokens to every session and 14,325 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
