cruisesong7/Imandra-Lean

The project addresses a high-value niche: connecting a powerful industrial-strength automated prover (Imandra) with the dominant modern interactive prover (Lean 4). However, with only 3 stars and zero forks over 9 months, it currently represents a stagnant experimental prototype rather than a living ecosystem. The defensibility is low because the logic of bridging an ATP to Lean (similar to Isabelle's Sledgehammer or Lean's existing SMT bridges) is a known engineering pattern; the value lies in the maintenance and the robustness of the translation layer, neither of which is evident here. Frontier labs are unlikely to compete directly as they focus on LLM-based proof synthesis (e.g., AlphaProof), but the project is highly susceptible to displacement by official integrations from Aesthetic Integration (the makers of Imandra) or the Lean FRO (Forward Research Organization) if they chose to support this pathway. Competitors include lean-smt and internal Lean 4 provers like Duper or Aesop.
