rocq-prover/rocq
Jul 2020 - Sep 2022
The Rocq Prover is an interactive theorem prover, or proof assistant. It provides a formal language to write mathematical definitions, executable algorithms and theorems together with an environment for semi-interactive development of machine-checked proofs.

Contributions summary:Wolf primarily contributed to the continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) aspects of the Rocq prover project. They added and modified scripts to integrate the Coqtail proof assistant into the CI process, demonstrating a focus on automated testing and build procedures. Furthermore, the user updated documentation related to the integration of Coqtail and also introduced a new flag to skip hypothesis diff computation, refining the behavior of the core proof assistant functionality. This suggests a role focused on tooling, testing, and developer experience within the project.
