P3: prove partition correctness generally (all n, k), not hand-picked vectors (#40)
## What & why `Proofs.idr` verified partition completeness/disjointness only on a few **explicit** slice vectors (`tenAcrossTwo`, `tenAcrossThree`). The §5.6 frontier is partition correctness **over `perItemSlices` for all inputs** — which is hard because `perItemSlices` uses `div`/`mod`, and those don't reduce at the type level. ## Insight Contiguity is **structural**: `perItemSlices`' inner `go offset (S r) = MkSlice offset cnt :: go (offset+cnt) r` places each slice exactly where the previous ended, *independent of the `cnt` values*. So the non-overlap guarantee can be proven **for all n, k without ever reducing `div`/`mod`**. ## Change — new module `Chapeliser.ABI.Partition` - **`contiguousComplete`** — for *any* start and *any* count vector, `sliceSum (contiguousFrom start counts) = sumNat counts` (general completeness, by induction). - **`Tiling` + `contiguousTiles`** — a gapless, overlap-free cover, proven for *any* counts. Strictly stronger than the pairwise `disjoint` Bool check. - **`tilingStartsGE` / `tilingHeadNoOverlap`** — derive genuine propositional pairwise non-overlap (`LTE`) from a tiling, generically (the compare-based Bool `<=` and foldl-based `all` don't reduce symbolically, so the proof uses propositional `LTE`). - **`blockPartitionTiles`** — the headline: the **real block partition is a non-overlapping tiling for ALL n, k**. `blockPartitionComplete` isolates the sole residual — the `div`/`mod` identity `sumNat (perItemCounts n k) = n` — flagged as future work. - **`shortPartitionNotComplete`** — negative control (a 3-locale layout summing to 9 is provably not a complete partition of 10). ## Verification (Idris2 0.7.0) - Full ABI builds clean (all 5 modules, zero warnings); no `believe_me`/`postulate`/holes. - **Adversarial**: a `Tiling` for deliberately *overlapping* slices `[0,5)`/`[3,8)` is **rejected** by the type checker (`Mismatch between 2 and 0`) — the non-overlap certificate is non-vacuous; and the general theorem instantiates at concrete `n,k`. Second of the priority-repo P3 deepenings (chapeliser #2). > Note: this branch also carries the ABI↔FFI gate (`scripts/abi-ffi-gate.py` + workflow), which had not yet merged into `main` for this repo — it rides along here. The `ABI-FFI Gate` check is green. ## CI note rust-ci / Hypatia / governance reds are pre-existing estate-infra unrelated to this change. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) https://claude.ai/code/session_019xMKB3T4Vo5FYC7Czx3JSH --- _Generated by [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code/session_019xMKB3T4Vo5FYC7Czx3JSH)_ --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

||| General partition-correctness proofs for Chapeliser.
5+
|||
6+
||| `Proofs.idr` verifies completeness/disjointness on a handful of *explicit*
7+
||| slice vectors. This module proves the same invariants **for the whole
8+
||| contiguous-partition family at once** — quantified over an arbitrary vector
9+
||| of per-locale counts — and applies that result to the actual block-partition
10+
||| strategy (the `div`/`mod` counts of `perItemSlices`) for **all** `n` items
11+
||| and `k` locales.
12+
|||
13+
||| The key idea: contiguity is *structural*. A contiguous layout places each
14+
||| slice exactly where the previous one ended, independently of the count
15+
||| values, so the non-overlap guarantee needs no reasoning about `div`/`mod`
16+
||| (which do not reduce at the type level). We capture non-overlap as a
17+
||| `Tiling` — a gapless, overlap-free cover, strictly stronger than the pairwise
18+
||| `disjoint` Bool check — and prove the real block partition is one for all
19+
||| `n`, `k`. The only residual is the completeness identity
20+
||| `sumNat (perItemCounts n k) = n`, which is isolated below.

||| arithmetic identity `sumNat (perItemCounts n k) = n` — the only `div`/`mod`
160+
||| obligation, which the type checker cannot discharge by reduction (tracked as
