NPA / Certificate-first proof checking

Română: NPA: expose the proof evidence boundary before trusting a result.

Română: This page reconstructs the NPA section from Math Lab as an independent evidence page: public status, trust model, proof pipeline, claim register, repositories, sources, and explicit non-replacement language.

Română: Inspect the trust boundary Română: Open GitHub repository

Statut public: Repository de cercetare; Română: Shown as research and implementation, not as a production assurance service.
Reverificare publică: 2026-07-02 / NPA v0.2.0; Română: Latest git tags checked: npa v0.2.0, npa-std v0.1.0, npa-mathlib v0.1.30.
Licență: Apache-2.0; Română: Apache-2.0 was verified for npa, npa-std, and npa-mathlib on 2026-07-02.

Română: Public recheck: 2026-07-02. The NPA repository latest git tag is v0.2.0; npa-std is v0.1.0; npa-mathlib is v0.1.30. Package README pins are shown as repository-specific context and are not flattened into one NPA version claim.

Română: NPA evidence page preview showing certificate checking and trust-boundary inspection — Română: The visual is a static preview of the certificate-checking result and trust-boundary explanation. It is not a live NPA trace.

Public status

Română: State what is public, what is evidence, and when it was rechecked.

Română: This page makes the page's basis visible: a local truth snapshot, a public repository source, and the final prelaunch readback date.

Statut public

Română: Research and implementation repository

Română: The GitHub repository is public, but this page describes a research and implementation repository, not a deployed service.

Public recheck

2026-07-02

Română: The public-source readback was completed on 2026-07-02. The original source reconstruction still uses the 2026-06-21 local truth snapshot.

Evidence

Certificates and hashes

Română: The source snapshot records canonical .npcert, certificate_hash, export_hash, axiom_report_hash, and checker verdicts.

License

Apache-2.0 verified

Română: Apache-2.0 was verified for npa, npa-std, and npa-mathlib through public LICENSE metadata on 2026-07-02.

Boundary

Română: NPA is not a practical replacement for Lean or Rocq. The distributed browser inspection simulation does not run NPA itself. Public tags, license, and repository visibility were checked on 2026-07-02 for the final publication readback.

Trust boundary

Română: Move only a canonical certificate across the evidence boundary.

Română: The boundary is not about which tool looks sophisticated. It is about which artifact is allowed to become evidence after independent checking.

Română: Parser, elaborator, tactics, automation, theorem search, plugins, AI systems, source files, replay files, theorem indexes, publish plans, CI status, release pages, and registry metadata stay on the untrusted candidate side.

Română: Proof pipeline / explanatory simulation

Română: Show the exact pipeline from certificate bytes to checking evidence.

Română: The browser simulation does not run NPA itself, Rust, WASM, or real proof certificates. It visualizes the source-free checking order that real artifacts must satisfy.

Claim register

Română: Separate evidence, time-sensitive facts, and boundary claims.

Română: The page does not depend on loose research copy. Each public statement is tied to a local truth snapshot, a source, and a publication action.

Română: Claim	Română: Public wording	Statut	Română: Source	Română: Publication action
CL-001	Română: NPA is certificate-first: the auditable boundary is the canonical .npcert artifact and the checking path around it.	Română: Verified public claim	S01 / 2026-07-02	Română: Review when the README changes.
CL-002	Română: The 2026-07-02 public recheck found the NPA repository latest git tag at v0.2.0. Related package READMEs still show repository-specific pins, so version wording stays scoped by repository.	Română: Verified public recheck	S01 / S02 / 2026-07-02	Română: Keep tag wording scoped by repository.
CL-003	Română: The local truth snapshot records a Rust 1.95.0 toolchain pin; it is not used as a marketing claim.	Română: Verified, time-sensitive	S01 / 2026-07-02	Română: Recheck if the toolchain version is displayed.
CL-004	Română: NPA is not a practical replacement for Lean or Rocq. This boundary must stay visible beside any comparison.	Română: Verified boundary claim	S01 / S03 / S05 / 2026-07-02	Română: Retain the disclaimer.
CL-005	Română: npa-std and npa-mathlib are separate public theorem-package repositories in the finitefield-org organization.	Română: Verified public claim	S01 / S02 / 2026-07-02	Română: Recheck repository visibility again if publication is delayed or repositories change.
CL-006	Română: The npa, npa-std, and npa-mathlib repositories each expose Apache-2.0 licensing through their public LICENSE metadata.	Română: Verified public claim	S01 / S02 / 2026-07-02	Română: Recheck LICENSE on a major release.

Repositories and license

Română: Keep code, package repositories, and organization visibility explicit.

Proof ecosystem guard

Română: Clarify roles before comparing proof tools.

Română: This is a role table, not a ranking. Lean and Rocq remain the reference proof-assistant ecosystems; NPA is presented as certificate-centered research and implementation work.

FAQ

Română: NPA status and verification boundaries.

Română: The answers emphasize the trust boundary before readers confuse a research page with a deployed proof-assistant service.

Română: Read about the company

01 Română: Is this page a product guarantee?

Română: No. NPA is shown here as a research and implementation repository.

02 Română: Can NPA replace Lean or Rocq?

Română: No. NPA is not a practical replacement for Lean or Rocq.

03 Română: Does the page run real NPA verification?

Română: No. The browser simulation does not run NPA itself, Rust, WASM, or real proof certificates.

04 Română: What counts as evidence here?

Română: The certificate artifact, deterministic hashes, Rust kernel/verifier result, source-free reference checker result, and axiom report form the checking-side evidence.

05 Română: Which facts need rechecking?

Română: Current public version, repository visibility, toolchain pins, license text, and source wording were rechecked on 2026-07-02.

Română: From proof discipline to operations

Română: Use the same evidence discipline when a business decision must be trusted.

Română: For business systems, the useful lesson is not to add theorem proving everywhere. It is to decide what must be generated, checked, logged, corrected, and approved by people.
