Summary

Layer 5 (the capstone, completing the 5-layer proof track): a new *.ABI.Capstone module importing every prior layer and assembling a single inhabited ABISound certificate (abiContractDischarged) from the real exported witnesses of the flagship property (L2 bounded array access), the deeper invariant (L3 store/select laws), and the FFI-seam injectivity (L4). One end-to-end soundness statement.

Genuine composition only — reuses real exported names.

Testing

Idris2 0.7.0 --build → exit 0, zero warnings. Adversarial: a bogus-field certificate was rejected. build/ removed. No believe_me/postulate/sorry.

Raise the Idrisiser Idris2 ABI to Layer 2 with a genuine, machine-checked
semantic proof of the repo's headline domain property (proven-correct
wrappers via dependent types).

Module Idrisiser.ABI.Semantics models a length-indexed SafeArray (Vect n a)
with a total accessor safeIndex : SafeArray n a -> Fin n -> a, and proves:

- InBounds i n is inhabited exactly when i < n (carries an LT i n proof);
  the out-of-range case has no constructor.
- Uninhabited (InBounds i 0): no index exists into an empty array, so
  out-of-range access is unrepresentable.
- decInBounds : sound + complete Dec (InBounds i n), backed by isLT.
- finToNatNatToFinLT / safeIndexUsesExactSlot: the proven index round-trips
  exactly to the requested raw position (no off-by-one, no runtime failure).
- certifyBounded + certifyBoundedSound: certifier into the ABI Totality
  witness, returning Total only when genuinely in bounds.
- Positive control (idx2InBounds reads "gamma") and negative controls
  (Not (InBounds 5 3), Not (InBounds i 0)), all machine-checked.

No believe_me / postulate / assert; the headline property is non-vacuous
(a deliberately-false InBounds 5 3 witness is rejected by idris2 0.7.0).

Add a second, deeper machine-checked theorem over the SAME Layer-2 model
(SafeArray/Vect/Fin), raising the Idris2 ABI to Layer 3.

New module Idrisiser.ABI.Invariants proves McCarthy's store/select array
axioms — distinct from Layer-2 in-bounds totality:
  - safeReadAfterWriteSame: read i after write v@i = v (write-then-read)
  - safeReadAfterWriteOther: write@j leaves slot i/=j unchanged (read-other)
  - predictReadOverWrite + safeReadOverWriteCorrect: sound decEq-driven
    decision procedure with correctness proof in both branches

Vect-level lemmas (indexReplaceAtSame, indexReplaceAtOther) proved by hand
via induction, not delegated to a library lemma. Defines safeWrite as the
formal dual of safeIndex. Positive controls (write-then-read, other-slot
preserved, prediction agrees) plus a negative/non-vacuity control
(writeReallyChangedSlot: the write genuinely changed the slot). %default
total, no believe_me/postulate/assert. Clean build, zero warnings;
adversarial false-equality check rejected.

Add Idrisiser.ABI.FfiSeam proving the resultToInt encoding is sound:
- resultRoundTrip: total decoder intToResult faithfully recovers every
  Result (lossless C-integer encoding).
- resultToIntInjective: distinct ABI outcomes never collide on the wire,
  derived cleanly from the round-trip via cong + Just-injectivity.
- positive controls (concrete decodes = Refl) and a machine-checked
  non-vacuity control (Ok and Error map to distinct wire integers).

Genuine proof: no believe_me/postulate/assert_total/idris_crash. %default
total, zero warnings. Registered in idrisiser-abi.ipkg.

Assemble the existing per-layer ABI proofs into one inhabited end-to-end
certificate in Idrisiser.ABI.Capstone:

- record ABISound with one field per discharged layer:
  * flagshipControl  : InBounds 2 3 (Layer 2 flagship positive control)
  * layer3Invariant  : write-then-read law instance (Layer 3 invariant)
  * ffiSeamInjective : resultToInt injectivity (Layer 4 FFI seam)
- abiContractDischarged : ABISound built ONLY from the real exported
  witnesses (Semantics.idx2InBounds, writeThenReadDelta,
  resultToIntInjective). If any prior layer were unsound this value
  would not typecheck.

Non-vacuity: a bogus certificate (Layer-3 field claiming the old value
"beta" instead of "delta") is rejected by the type checker.

Genuine composition only: no believe_me/postulate/assert/%hint.
%default total, SPDX header, zero build warnings.
