You tell it what you want it to prove. Or the tooling surrounding it does. The tooling surrounding it might want to prove that "this main function never invokes undefined behavior", or something more local like "for all possible inputs to the public interface to this module, no undefined behavior is invoked". Or you might want to specify constraints by hand. For examples, you might do that by writing normal tests except you can use magical variables that take on any value [1], or you might do that by annotating functions with contracts that they obey [2]. Or at a simpler level you might just annotate functions that should never panic. Ultimately once you can prove things about your code, it's a tool in the toolbox for querying how your code works. You can use that to write correct code from the start, or to debug incorrect code, or variou

s other things. The problem is that right now the state of the art (non-ai) can't reason about very complex code without a lot of human help - making it a fairly impractical tool. I think AI might mange to fix that. [1] This is how kani works in rust, here's an example: https://github.com/model-checking/verify-rust-std/pull/112/f...
