Show HN: Formally verified 3D CSG: Trust 93 lines spec, not 1000 lines AI code
AI Summary

A developer has created a formally verified 3D constructive solid geometry kernel using Lean 4 to ensure mathematical correctness. The project uses AI to generate proofs while keeping the human-auditable specification concise, prioritizing verification over raw performance.

To my knowledge, this is the first formally verified implementation of a 3D constructive solid geometry (CSG) operation: mesh intersection, implemented in Lean 4 and verified against a concise specification that pins down the surface of the resulting mesh exactly and guarantees practical well-formedness conditions on the triangulation.
