Mistral AI Releases Leanstral 1.5, a Formal Verification Model That Saturates miniF2F and Finds Unknown Bugs

#Mistral#Mistral AI#Leanstral#formal verification#Lean

Mistral AI has released Leanstral 1.5, a formal verification model for the Lean 4 proof language, under the banner β€œProof Abundance for All.” The model is free and open-source under an Apache-2.0 license.

Details

  • Model specs: A mixture-of-experts model with 119B total parameters and 6B active parameters, released under Apache-2.0 with weights on Hugging Face and also available as a free API endpoint (leanstral-1-5)
  • Benchmarks: Achieves 100% on both the validation and test splits of miniF2F, solves 587 of 672 problems on PutnamBench, and posts state-of-the-art results on FATE-H (87%) and FATE-X (34%); FLTEval scores improved to Pass@1 28.9 and Pass@8 43.2
  • Cost efficiency: Solves PutnamBench problems for roughly $4 each, versus an estimated $300+ per problem for competitor Seed-Prover 1.5 at its high-compute setting (around 10 H20-GPU-days per problem)
  • Finding real bugs: Using an Aeneas-based pipeline that translates Rust code into Lean, Mistral scanned 57 open-source repositories and found 47 violated properties, 11 of which were genuine bugs β€” 5 previously unreported on GitHub, including an integer-overflow bug in zigzag decoding at MAX values in datrs/varinteger

How to try it

  • Install Mistral Vibe with uv tool install mistral-vibe, run the /leanstral setup command, then launch with vibe --agent lean
  • Optionally install the Lean LSP MCP for enhanced functionality
  • Model weights are available on Hugging Face at mistralai/Leanstral-1.5-119B-A6B
