Mistral AI released Leanstral 1.5, an Apache-2.0 licensed mixture-of-experts model with 119B total and 6B active parameters, specialized for formal verification in Lean 4. The model saturates miniF2F (100%), solves 587/672 PutnamBench problems, and achieves new state-of-the-art results on FATE-H (87%) and FATE-X (34%), while costing roughly $4 per problem versus ~$300 for comparable systems. Trained via mid-training, supervised fine-tuning, and reinforcement learning with CISPO, it demonstrates strong test-time scaling and practical code verification capabilities, uncovering 5 previously unknown bugs across 57 open-source repositories.
Goedel-Architect is an agentic framework for formal theorem proving in Lean 4 that uses blueprint generation — a dependency graph of definitions and lemmas — rather than recursive decomposition, enabling parallel lemma closure and global refinement. Built on DeepSeek-V4-Flash (284B-A13B), it achieves 99.2% pass@1 on MiniF2F-test and 75.6% on PutnamBench, scaling to 100% on MiniF2F, 88.8% on PutnamBench, and 4/6 on IMO 2025 when seeded with natural-language proofs. The authors claim state-of-the-art performance for an open-source pipeline at up to 500x lower cost than comparable systems.
Researchers evaluate Claude Code in an agentic proving framework on CLEVER, a Lean 4 benchmark for verifiable code generation, achieving 98.1% end-to-end success on program generation and verification over self-consistent entries. The system generates valid specifications for 98.8% of problems and certifies implementations against ground-truth specifications for 87.5% of problems. The results reveal a growing mismatch between existing program verification benchmark difficulty and modern agentic prover capabilities, motivating calls for more rigorous evaluation methodologies. The findings support compiler-in-the-loop agentic paradigms as the current state-of-the-art for foundational program verification.
This paper presents a case study of using the Aristotle API for AI-assisted formal theorem proving in Lean 4, targeting the Grasshopper problem (IMO 2009 Problem 6). The generated artifact verifies four helper lemmas but leaves the main theorem unresolved via a 'sorry' placeholder, exposing a key limitation: local proof search can succeed while global combinatorial bookkeeping remains unsolved. The study provides a reproducible Lean artifact and precise analysis distinguishing verified from unverified proof content, offering a concrete benchmark for evaluating AI formalization capabilities.
Mistral AI has released Leanstral, an open-source code agent built on a sparse 120B/6B-active-parameter architecture, designed specifically for formal proof engineering in Lean 4. The model targets realistic proof engineering workflows rather than isolated math competition problems, and is benchmarked on FLTEval, a new evaluation suite tied to the Fermat's Last Theorem formalization project. Leanstral is released under Apache 2.0 with a free API endpoint and MCP support, and demonstrates competitive performance against Claude Sonnet 4.6 at roughly 1/15th the cost. The release positions formal verification as a scalable alternative to human code review for high-stakes software and mathematics.
