Checker command

Evidence notes

`build_nat_prelude` admits `Nat.add_add_add_comm` through the trusted `Kernel::add_declaration` gate, declared in `nat_prelude/add_basics.rs`. `declare_add_add_add_comm` chains `add_assoc` twice and `add_comm` once (the same construction `div_mod_lemmas.rs`'s per-file private copy already used internally; this is the first PUBLIC `Nat.add_add_add_comm` this prelude has declared -- see that module doc's remark that the prelude had none). `nat_theorem_inventory`'s rendered type is `(x0..x3:AxNat)->Eq (add (add x0 x1) (add x2 x3)) (add (add x0 x2) (add x1 x3))`, matching this fact's `formal.statement`. `nat_theorem_inventory` exits non-zero for a name that does not exist, and the `grep -c` count (tested `-ge 1`, not piped into `grep -q`) requires the admitted declaration to actually be printed. Verified both ways: the real name greps to a count `-ge 1`; grepping a made-up name (`Nat.add_add_add_comm_bogus`) greps to `0`.

Kind: exhaustive-enumeration
Status: checked

Supports: axiom_footprint: [] -- the Nat prelude's trusted surface is empty

Checker command

cargo run -q -p axeyum-lean-kernel --example nat_axiom_inventory -- --require-axiom-free nat

Evidence notes

`nat_axiom_inventory --require-axiom-free nat` enumerates the built Nat environment and exits non-zero unless it admits no Axiom, Opaque or Quotient declaration (measured: axiom=0 opaque=0 quotient=0). A theorem cannot depend on a trusted declaration the environment does not contain, so an empty trusted surface bounds every individual theorem's footprint by []. `nat_prelude_tests::every_nat_declaration_is_checked_and_axiom_free` additionally checks this theorem's own `Kernel::axiom_footprint` directly via `theorem_names`, and `the_build_is_deterministic`/`every_promised_name_is_admitted_with_the_expected_kind` (both re-run on every `nat_prelude::` sweep) confirm the declaration is admitted at the exact rendered type checked below.
