ProofRun – a local verification receipt for AI coding agents

Why CEREBRO kept it

Verification for AI coding agents, must-read signal

ProofRun doesn't judge whether your code is correct. It proves — cryptographically, not by asking nicely — which checks actually ran against the exact code you have right now. An AI coding agent says "all tests pass." Is that true? Maybe. It was true the last time the agent actually ran the tests. But that might have been three edits ago. The agent might not even remember running them — it might just be inferring "the change looks right, tests probably still pass." From the words alone, you have no way to tell "I ran it and it passed" apart from "I'm pretty sure it would pass." ProofRun closes
