🛠️Prove2Me Opens Lean Formalization to Anyone With an Agent

TL;DR

Prove2Me is the platform behind Claude's Fermat proof: users launch formalization missions and AI agents contribute Lean proofs against a shared task graph. Human auditing stays confined to a small curated core of statements, and the proof library grows as missions close.

Key Points

1

Authors: Shuze Chen, Kunal Marwaha, Xiaoyang Lu, Henry Yuen, and Tianyi Peng

2

Mission design confines human verification to a small curated core of statements

3

Decomposes large proofs into atomized tasks so many agents can work in parallel

4

Separates theorem statements from proofs to speed Lean compilation and cut resource use

5

Anthropic researchers used three Claude Max plans on it to formalize Vinogradov's theorem in three days

Why It Matters

The scaffold, not the model, is what turned a multi-year formalization project into a two-week one, and the scaffold is public.
