| `C-c t p` | `transcendental-proof-menu` | Proof navigation |
| `C-c t s` | `transcendental-stellogen-menu` | Stellogen control |
| `C-c t n` | `transcendental-narya-menu` | Narya templates |
| `C-c t c` | `transcendental-color-menu` | Color control |
### Proof Navigation (Direct)
| Key | Command | Description |
|-----|---------|-------------|
| `C-c C-n` | `trans-kb-proof-forward` | Step forward |
| `C-c C-u` | `trans-kb-proof-backward` | Step backward |

## GF(3) Proof State Mapping
```
Proof States → GF(3) Trits → Mode-line Colors
unproved → -1 (MINUS) → RED #FF0000
processing → 0 (ERGODIC) → YELLOW #FFFF00
proved → +1 (PLUS) → GREEN #00FF00
```
### Conservation Law
For any sequence of proof steps:
```
Σ (state_i mod 3) ≡ 0 (mod 3)
```
**Example trajectory**:
```elisp
[proved unproved unproved proved proved proved]
+1 -1 -1 +1 +1 +1
Sum: +1 - 1 - 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = +2 ≡ -1 (mod 3)
```
## Proof Assistant Integration
### 1. Stellogen (Transcendental Syntax)
```stellogen
' Create constellation
spec add =
-add(z Y) +result(Y);
-add(s(X) Y) +add(X s(Y)).
' Run with C-c t s r
```
**Commands**:
- `trans-kb-stellogen-run-file` - Execute .sg file
- `trans-kb-stellogen-constellation` - Insert template
### 2. Narya (Observational Bridge Types)
```narya
-- Bridge type template (C-c t n b)
def bridge (A : Type) (x y : A) : Type := x ≡ y
-- Transport template (C-c t n t)
def transport (A : Type) (P : A → Type) (x y : A) (p : x ≡ y) : P x → P y
:= λ px. subst P p px
```
**Features**:
- Observational equality (no interval type)
- Higher-dimensional type theory
- Bridge types computed from structure
### 3. Proof General (Coq/Lean/Agda)
Standard Proof General commands enhanced with:
- Color state feedback
- Auto-save on successful steps
- GF(3) conservation tracking
## Gay.jl Color Integration
### Deterministic Color Generation
```elisp
;; Set seed (matches Gay.jl)
(setq trans-kb-gay-seed 1069)
;; Get next color in sequence
(trans-kb-next-color)
;; => (:L 52.3 :C 78.1 :H 215.7 :hex "#2D4FE8" :index 1)
;; Update mode-line based on proof state
(trans-kb-update-mode-line-color)
```
### Color Menu (C-c t c)
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `n` | Next color in sequence |
| `s` | Set Gay.jl seed |
| `t` | Toggle mode-line coloring |
| `r` | Reset color index |
| `c` | Show current color info |
## Self-Operating Proof Automation
### Auto-Prove Tactics
```elisp
(setq trans-kb-auto-tactics
'("reflexivity" ; Identity proofs
"apply assumption" ; Use hypotheses
"intro" ; Introduce variables
"split" ; Conjunction
"left" ; Disjunction left
"right" ; Disjunction right
"exact rfl")) ; Definitional equality
```
### Usage
```coq
(* Unsolved goal *)
Theorem auto_example : forall x, x = x.
Proof.
C-c C-a (* Auto-prove attempts tactics *)
(* ✅ Auto-proved with: reflexivity *)
Qed.
```
## Mode-Line Visual Feedback
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ [RED] U:--- proof.v All L1 𝕋𝕊 (Coq) │ ← Unproved
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ [YELLOW] U:**- proof.v All L3 𝕋𝕊 (Coq) │ ← Processing
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ [GREEN] U:--- proof.v All L10 𝕋𝕊 (Coq) │ ← Proved
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Lighter: 𝕋𝕊 = Transcendental Syntax
```

### Via straight.el
```elisp
(use-package transcendental-keyboard
:straight (transcendental-keyboard
:type git
:host github
:repo "plurigrid/asi"
:files ("skills/transcendental-keyboard/*.el"))
:config
(setq trans-kb-gay-seed 1069)
(setq trans-kb-color-mode t)
(add-hook 'coq-mode-hook #'transcendental-keyboard-mode)
(add-hook 'lean-mode-hook #'transcendental-keyboard-mode))
```
### Manual
```bash
# Clone ASI repo
git clone https://github.com/plurigrid/asi ~/asi
# Add to init.el
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/asi/skills/transcendental-keyboard")
(require 'transcendental-keyboard)
```
### Dependencies
```bash
# Proof General
git clone https://github.com/ProofGeneral/PG ~/.emacs.d/proof-general
# Narya
git clone https://github.com/mikeshulman/narya ~/narya
cd ~/narya && dune build

```
## Example Workflow
### 1. Narya Higher-Dimensional Proof
```narya
-- File: bridge_example.ny
-- Define natural numbers
def Nat : Type := data [
| zero : Nat
| suc : Nat → Nat
]
-- Addition
def add : Nat → Nat → Nat := [
| zero, n => n
| suc m, n => suc (add m n)
]
-- Bridge between two addition orders
def add_comm (m n : Nat) : add m n ≡ add n m := {
-- C-c C-a to auto-prove
-- Mode-line: RED → YELLOW → GREEN
}
```
**Keyboard sequence**:
1. `C-c t` → Main menu
2. `p` → Proof menu
3. `n` → Step forward (mode-line: RED → YELLOW → GREEN)
4. `C-c C-a` → Auto-prove attempt
### 2. Stellogen Constellation
```stellogen
# File: nat_add.sg
spec nat =
-i(z) ok;
-i(s(X)) +i(X).
spec add =
-add(z Y) +result(Y);
-add(s(X) Y) +add(X s(Y)).
show process #input(s(s(z))). #add. &kill. end
```
**Keyboard sequence**:
1. `C-c t s` → Stellogen menu
2. `r` → Run file
3. Output in `*stellogen*` buffer
### 3. GF(3) Conservation Check
```elisp
;; After proof session
M-x trans-kb-analyze-conservation
;; => "GF(3) Analysis: 15/17 triads conserved (88.2%)"
```
## GF(3) Triads
```
proofgeneral-narya (-1) ⊗ transcendental-keyboard (0) ⊗ stellogen (+1) = 0 ✓
lean-proof-walk (-1) ⊗ transcendental-keyboard (0) ⊗ gay-mcp (+1) = 0 ✓
narya-hatchery (-1) ⊗ transcendental-keyboard (0) ⊗ discopy (+1) = 0 ✓
```
## Configuration Examples
### Minimal Setup
```elisp
(require 'transcendental-keyboard)
(transcendental-keyboard-mode 1)
```
### Full Setup with Gay.jl
```elisp
(use-package gay
:load-path "~/i/"
:config
(setq gay-seed 1069)
(setq gay-color-target 'mode-line))
(use-package transcendental-keyboard
:load-path "~/asi/skills/transcendental-keyboard"
:after (gay proof-site)
:config
(setq trans-kb-gay-seed 1069)
(setq trans-kb-color-mode t)
(setq trans-kb-auto-save t)
(setq trans-kb-proof-assistants
'((narya . "~/.local/bin/narya")
(lean . "~/.elan/bin/lean")
(coq . "coqtop")
(stellogen . "~/stellogen/_build/default/bin/sgen")))
;; Auto-enable for proof files
(add-hook 'coq-mode-hook #'transcendental-keyboard-mode)
(add-hook 'lean-mode-hook #'transcendental-keyboard-mode)
;; Custom auto-tactics
(setq trans-kb-auto-tactics
'("reflexivity"
"apply assumption"
"intro"
"constructor"
"simp"
"ring"
"omega")))
```
### Custom Key Bindings
```elisp
(with-eval-after-load 'transcendental-keyboard
;; Vim-style navigation
(define-key transcendental-keyboard-mode-map (kbd "C-j") #'trans-kb-proof-forward)
(define-key transcendental-keyboard-mode-map (kbd "C-k") #'trans-kb-proof-backward)
;; Quick auto-prove
(define-key transcendental-keyboard-mode-map (kbd "M-a") #'trans-kb-auto-prove)
;; Stellogen shortcuts
(define-key transcendental-keyboard-mode-map (kbd "C-c s r") #'trans-kb-stellogen-run-file)
(define-key transcendental-keyboard-mode-map (kbd "C-c s c") #'trans-kb-stellogen-constellation))
```
## Troubleshooting
### Proof General Not Loading
```elisp
;; Check if proof-site.el is in load-path
(locate-library "proof-site")
;; Manually load
(load "~/.emacs.d/proof-general/generic/proof-site")
```
### Gay.jl Colors Not Showing
```elisp
;; Check if gay.el is loaded
(featurep 'gay)
;; Load manually
(load "~/i/gay.el")
;; Verify color generation
(gay-color-at 1069 0)
```
### Mode-Line Not Updating
```elisp
;; Enable color mode
(setq trans-kb-color-mode t)
;; Force update
(trans-kb-update-mode-line-color)
;; Check current state
trans-kb-current-state ; => unproved, processing, or proved
```
## Advanced Features
### State History Analysis
```elisp
;; View complete state history
trans-kb-state-history
;; => (proved proved unproved processing proved ...)
;; Count states
(cl-loop for state in trans-kb-state-history
count (eq state 'proved)) ; => 42
;; GF(3) conservation ratio
(trans-kb-analyze-conservation)
;; => "GF(3) Analysis: 14/14 triads conserved (100.0%)"
```
### Custom Proof Tactics
```elisp
;; Add domain-specific tactics
(add-to-list 'trans-kb-auto-tactics "unfold my_definition")
(add-to-list 'trans-kb-auto-tactics "rewrite my_lemma")
;; Tactic with priority
(push "exact rfl" trans-kb-auto-tactics) ; Try first
```
### Integration with Other Systems
```elisp
;; Hook into proof state changes
(add-hook 'trans-kb-state-change-hook
(lambda (old-state new-state)
(message "State transition: %s → %s" old-state new-state)))
;; Export to NATS
(defun trans-kb-publish-state ()
"Publish proof state to NATS."
(when (featurep 'gay)
(gay-publish "proof.state"
(json-encode `((state . ,trans-kb-current-state)
(index . ,trans-kb-color-index))))))
```
## Performance
| Operation | Latency | Notes |
|-----------|---------|-------|
| Proof step forward | <50ms | With color update |
| Mode-line color update | <5ms | Face attribute change |
| Auto-prove attempt | 100-500ms | Depends on tactic |
| Stellogen execution | 50-200ms | Depends on constellation size |
| GF(3) conservation check | <10ms | Per 1000 states |
