Abstract:
We present a chat bot interface for the Coq proof assistant system. The bot provides a new modality of interaction with Coq that functions across multiple devices and platforms. Our system is particularly suitable for mobile platforms, Android and iOS. The basic architecture of the bot software is reviewed as are the outcomes of several rounds of beta-testing. Potential implications of the system are discussed, such as the possibility of a seamless collaborative proof environment.
