v5.3.0 — SymbolicVerifier: DiagnosticResult Reference Implementation
Latestv5.3.0 — SymbolicVerifier: DiagnosticResult Reference Implementation
SymbolicVerifier is the first fully DiagnosticResult-conformant verification engine and serves as the reference implementation for future engine migrations. The unified diagnostic model is no longer aspirational — one of 13 engines now demonstrates the complete pattern.
Completed (Phase 1 + Phase 2, META #216)
- Phase 1 — 6 public methods migrated to
DiagnosticResult:verify_code,verify_function_contract,verify_safety_properties,verify_bounded,analyze_complexity,get_verification_budget - Phase 2 — All internal code paths produce
AdvisoryCheckfor non-proof-bearing analysis;developer_fieldsprovides structured evidence;verification_modefield tracks bounded vs. unbounded analysis across every return path - Fail-closed math bugs (#129-#131) — All three resolved, ensuring safety constraints always block when out of budget
- Key rotation (#224) — Secure PBKDF2-based key attestation rotation

- Remaining engines tracked under META #216 (12 engines + security hardening + attestation consumption)
- Open audit issues: #162-#164 (Logic/Graph/Reasoning), #205 (SecureCodeExecutor), #221-#231 (security hardening), #191 (attestation consumption)
