AI agents wrote 613,318 lines of Lean that copy Python's internals line by line, tested every piece against the real Python, had a computer check every proof, and turned up 418 bug reports in Python along the way.

Python doesn't have a precise written definition. There is a reference manual, but in practice "Python" means whatever CPython does, and CPython is hundreds of thousands of lines of C plus a large standard library. The manual covers normal use. It says little about the odd cases, and that's where bugs hide: an object that changes a dictionary while that dictionary is searching for it, an error thrown halfway through an update, a number one past the largest the C code was written for.
