AI agents refactor Lean proofs under $3 cap, using tiered models

A research paper details a novel approach to refactoring Lean proofs using enterprise agent practices, achieving a score of 86.31 on a closed-track competition. The method employed a cost-effective strategy, utilizing different AI models like GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-6.1 Terra, and Gemini 4 Argon based on their performance and cost per step, all while staying under a US$3 cap per problem. The entry also incorporated compiler-checked programmatic rewrite rules and rigorous call recording for review, which significantly improved the proof quality. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates a cost-effective approach to AI-assisted formal verification, potentially lowering barriers for complex software development.
