0.4.0

Released 2026-05-18.

Proof-producing rewrite/simp automation and Elixir-authored kernel assurance groundwork.

  • Added Theoria.Equality.Chain as equality trace realization groundwork.
  • Added Theoria.Simp.Result and proof-aware Theoria.Simp.Step metadata.
  • Added Simp.normalize(..., prove: true), Simp.realize/3, and Simp.add_theorem/4 for checked simplification artifacts and explicit theorem installation.
  • Added realize: true support for generated equation rewrite databases so rules can carry checked source artifacts.
  • Added mix theoria.equations --realize, mix theoria.simp --prove, named simp examples, and example scripts to expose checked artifacts from the CLI and package integration paths.
  • Added rewrite-step path and substitution tracking through structural rewrites and wired simp traces to consume rewrite-step metadata.
  • Added Theoria.Rewrite.Proof for instantiated rule proofs and supported application function/argument congruence lifting.
  • Added lazy rewrite-rule realization with realize: :lazy.
  • Added proof-status diagnostics on rewrite and simp steps.
  • Added JSON output for equation realization and simp proof examples.
  • Added Elixir-authored kernel spec metadata, a reference checker for core terms, a reference normalizer with reference primitive recursor reductions, Bool/Nat/List/Vec corpus cases, rejection/theorem/generated-artifact/indexed-artifact differential checks, and mix theoria.kernel.check.
  • Updated equality chains to combine available step proofs with transitivity.
  • Added trusted boundary documentation and architecture policy guards for kernel-checked artifacts versus untrusted automation.
  • Hardened definitional equality so diagnostic binder names no longer affect de Bruijn alpha-equivalent terms.
  • Removed the unsound symbolic universe upper-bound shortcut and normalized universe max modulo commutativity/associativity for level equality.
  • Avoided atom creation from CLI input in theorem, equation, and simp Mix tasks.
  • Extracted definition and matcher declaration admission into trusted-adjacent kernel admission modules.
  • Split theorem macro implementation out of the core term-construction DSL facade.
  • Named the indexed Vec matcher case frame to isolate fragile de Bruijn positions from the main planning flow.

0.3.0

Released 2026-05-18.

  • Introduced structured Theoria.Equation.Identity identities for ordinary, unfold, matcher, and indexed matcher equations.
  • Removed generated equation declaration atoms; installed generated equations now use structured Theoria.Equation.Identity values as environment keys.
  • Added Theoria.Equation.Realized so generated equation checking is an anonymous artifact phase before optional theorem installation.
  • Added selector-based indexed matcher equation lookup/realization and opt-in Vec indexed equation theorem installation.
  • Added indexed matcher equation identity metadata recording in opt-in Vec environments.
  • Carried structured equation identities through rewrite/simp rule metadata and friendly CLI/Lean labels.
  • Added proof-aware rewrite rule fields for future proof-producing simp traces.
  • Split indexed matcher packages into explicit statement, lemma, realization, and installation phases.
  • Added explicit indexed matcher rewrite/simp database constructors behind opt-in policy.
  • Generated the Lean oracle mirror declaration for the validation Vec matcher from the checked matcher type.

0.2.0

Second experimental release after the initial Hex publication.

  • Hardened equation/matcher metadata validation and registry checks.
  • Added in-memory equation registry snapshots and centralized generated-theorem realization.
  • Derived matcher descriptors from checked recursor metadata for the supported Bool/Nat/List fragment.
  • Added architecture regression tests for equation/matcher layering.
  • Added release-boundary documentation and clearer experimental/internal API labels.

0.1.0

Initial experimental release.

  • Added a small dependent proof/spec kernel with explicit checked environments.
  • Added core terms, normalization, local definitions, universe parameters, equality, and theorem declarations.
  • Added theorem modules and Mix tasks for theorem validation and installation workflows.
  • Added Logic, Equality, Bool, Nat, List, and Vec libraries with theorem corpora.
  • Added inductive specifications, generated recursors/inductors, checked metadata, and iota reduction.
  • Added native validation via mix theoria.check and mix theoria.validate.
  • Added contributor-only Lean oracle validation via generated Lean source.
  • Added internal equation compiler metadata for supported Bool/Nat/List definitions.
  • Added checked matcher declarations, generated ordinary equations, matcher equations, unfold equations, and registry validation.
  • Added experimental rewrite and simp groundwork consuming generated equation metadata.
  • Added ExDoc guides, CI, Reach architecture checks, Credo, ExDNA, Dialyzer, and docs build validation.
