Add a new specification for a distributed system that consists of several servers. Each server maintains an integer counter, and allows clients to get the current counter value or set them. When a client sets a value, the server should update its local value if (and only if) the client supplied value is larger than the one the server already contains. The servers should periodically synchronize counter values with each other, thus ensuring that eventually, in the absense of client set requests, they will all end up with the same counter value and that this value is the largest value that any of them had. Clients should not need to communicate with each other.
I'll start by understanding the Veil framework structure better, then write the specification.

Check Examples/Ivy/ and Examples/TLA/ for distributed protocol examples. Also check if there's an Examples/apanda/ directory already."
}Perfect! Now I have a comprehensive understanding of the Veil DSL patterns. Let me compile my findings into a clear report.
## Veil DSL Pattern Understanding Report
Based on my analysis of several example specifications, here's a comprehensive guide to understanding the Veil DSL patterns:
### 1. **State Declaration (Relations, Functions, Individuals)**
**Relations** (predicates over parameters):
```lean
relation leader : node → Bool
relation pending : node → node → Bool
relation initial_msg (originator : address) (dst : address) (r : round) (v : value)
```
- Used for multi-parameter state that can be true/false for specific inputs
- Support arbitrary arities (1, 2, 3+ parameters)
- In model checking, represented as sets of tuples
**Functions** (parameterized state):
```lean
function rmState (r : RM) : RMStateType
function epoch : node -> time
```
- Map parameters to specific values
- Can return enums, integers, or other types
- Often used for per-node state with values from enums
**Individuals** (global state):
```lean
individual leader : List node
individual messages : List (Message node)
individual tmState : TMStateType
individual msgCommit : Bool
```
- Single global values (not parameterized)
- Can be lists, booleans, or custom types
- Used for consensus/global state tracking
**Immutable state** (constants):
```lean
immutable function nextNode : node → node
immutable relation le : time -> time -> Bool
immutable individual first : node
```
- Constants defined at module initialization
- Passed to model checker as concrete values
- Used for topology, ordering relations, etc.
---
### 2. **Actions/Procedures**
**Basic action structure**:
```lean
action recv {
let m :| m ∈ messages
let n := m.dst
messages := messages.erase m
if m.payload = n && n ∉ leader then
leader := n :: leader
else
if n ≤ m.payload then
sendToNext m.payload n
}
```
**Action with parameters**:
```lean
action recv (sender n next : node) {
require isNext n next
require pending sender n
pending sender n := false
if (sender = n) then
leader n := true
else
if (le n sender) then
pending sender next := true
}
```
**Procedure (reusable helper)**:
```lean
procedure sendToNext (payload src : node) {
let msg := Message.mk payload src (nextNode src)
if msg ∉ messages then
messages := messages.insertOrdered msg
}
```
**Key constructs**:
- `require` — precondition (enables action only if true)
- `let x := expr` — local variable binding
- `let x :| condition` — existential binding (nondeterministic choice)
- Assignment with `:=` for both individuals and relations
- `if/else` for conditionals
- Pattern matching with `|` in destructuring
**Transition blocks** (used for Byzantine faults):
```lean
transition byz {
(∀ (src dst : address), ...
(¬ is_byz src ∧ (initial_msg src dst r v ↔ initial_msg' src dst r v)) ∨
(is_byz src ∧ (initial_msg src dst r v → initial_msg' src dst r v)))
}
```
---
### 3. **Invariants and Safety Properties**
**Safety property** (must never be violated):
```lean
safety [single_leader] leader.length ≤ 1
safety [vote_integrity]
∀ (src dst : address) (r : round) (v : value),
¬ is_byz src ∧ ¬ is_byz dst ∧ voted dst src r v → (sent src r ∧ initial_value src r v)
```
**Invariant** (must be true in all reachable states):
```lean
invariant [messages_nodup] messages.Nodup
invariant [leader_greatest] leader L → le N L
invariant [drop_smaller] pending S D ∧ btw S N D → le N S
```
**Assumption** (constraint on initial state):
```lean
assumption ∀ (x: time), le x X
assumption ∀ (x y z : time), le x y ∧ le y z → le x z
```
**Ghost relations** (derived state for specification only):
```lean
ghost relation isNext (n : node) (next : node) :=
∀ Z, n ≠ next ∧ ((Z ≠ n ∧ Z ≠ next) → btw n next Z)
ghost relation initial_value (n : address) (r : round) (v : value) :=
∀ dst, initial_msg n dst r v
```
---
### 4. **#gen_state and #gen_spec**
**#gen_state** (after line 14-32 in examples):
- Generates the state type from declared relations, functions, and individuals
- Must come after type/enum/relation/individual/function declarations
- Initializes metadata and internal structures
- No arguments needed
**#gen_spec** (after line 45-54 in examples):
- Generates the specification from actions and properties
- Creates verification conditions for invariants
- Orchestrates SMT solver and model checking
- Should come after all actions, invariants, and safety properties
**Usage order**:
```
type declarations → instantiate → relation/function/individual → #gen_state
→ after_init → procedures → actions → safety/invariant/assumption → #gen_spec
→ #model_check / sat trace / unsat trace / #check_invariants
```
---
### 5. **Type Declaration Patterns**
**Abstract types** (no structure):
```lean
type node
type RM
type address
```
**Type classes and instances** (for ordering, comparison):
```lean
type node
instantiate inst : LE node
instantiate decLE : DecidableRel inst.le
instantiate ord : Ord node
-- Or use TotalOrder (provides everything)
instantiate tot : TotalOrder node
```
**Enum types** (discrete values):
```lean
enum RMStateType = { working, prepared, committed, aborted }
enum TMStateType = { init, tmCommitted, tmAborted }
```
**Custom structures**:
```lean
@[veil_decl] structure Message (node : Type) where
payload : node
src : node
dst : node
```
**Instantiating specialized type classes**:
```lean
instantiate nset : ByzNodeSet address nodeset
open ByzNodeSet
```
---
### 6. **Model Checking and Verification**
**Model checking** (concrete instantiation):
```lean
#model_check { node := Fin 4 } { nextNode := fun n => n + 1 }
#model_check { RM := Fin 3 }
#model_check {
nodeset := ByzNSet (3 * 1 + 1)
address := Fin (3 * 1 + 1)
round := Fin 3
value := Fin 3
}
```
**Trace checking** (existential test):
```lean
sat trace {
any 3 actions
assert (∃ l, leader l)
}
unsat trace {
any 5 actions
assert (∃ n₁ n₂, n₁ ≠ n₂ ∧ leader n₁ ∧ leader n₂)
}
```
**Invariant checking**:
```lean
#check_invariants
```
**Timing**:
```lean
#time #gen_spec
```
---
### 7. **after_init Block**
Initializes all mutable state to starting values:
```lean
after_init {
leader := []
messages := []
}
after_init {
leader N := false
pending M N := false
}
after_init {
rmState R := working
tmState := init
tmPrepared R := false
msgPrepared R := false
msgCommit := false
msgAbort := false
}
```

}

safety [counters_nonneg] ∀ (s : server), counter s ≥ 0
-- Safety: after synchronization, the destination server's counter is
-- at least as large as the source server's counter.
-- This is captured by the invariant that no synchronization can make
-- a counter decrease.
-- Key convergence-related invariant: the maximum counter value across
-- all servers never decreases. We express a supporting invariant:
-- for any two servers, after a sync between them, the smaller counter
-- can only go up (never down). This is inherent in the transition
-- system but we state a checkable safety property.
-- The core consistency property: if two servers have synchronized
-- (directly or transitively), they agree. We can check a simpler
-- property: no action ever decreases any server's counter.
invariant [monotone] ∀ (s : server), counter s ≥ 0
#gen_spec
-- Model check with a small number of servers and clients
#model_check { server := Fin 3, client := Fin 2 }

Ghost only works with relation. Let me adjust the approach - I'll use a ghost relation instead, or drop the ghost max tracking and focus on the core protocol properties.

Ghost only supports relation (derived boolean predicates). I'll redesign without ghost individual — the key properties can be stated directly.

The safety property is too strict — the initial counter value may not be in everSet. Let me rethink. The counters start at some default value, but everSet starts all false. I need to track the initial value too, or use a different property.
Let me simplify and focus on the core max-convergence properties with a cleaner design. I'll track which values have been "introduced" into the system (either initial or via client set).

Good, individual works with various types. Let me look at a cleaner approach — just verify that the protocol's key structural properties hold. I'll also look at how assumption is used for ordering properties.

# Max Counter
A distributed system where multiple servers each maintain an integer
counter. Clients can read or update any server's counter, but updates
only take effect if the new value is strictly greater than the current
one. Servers periodically synchronize pairwise, propagating the maximum
value. Eventually, in the absence of further client writes, all servers
converge to the same (maximum) counter value.

Since counter is also being initialized nondeterministically (no explicit init means it's arbitrary), I can't reference it.
Let me simplify: just set introduced V := true for all values initially (overapproximation), or better yet, not track the initial values and instead just make all counters start at the same fixed value.

I see — they use the instance name prefix: seq.zero, tot.zero. Since my instance is named tot, I should use tot.zero and tot.le.

The specification compiles, the model checker finds no safety violations across 64 states, and the satisfiability trace confirms that values can propagate between servers. Now let me enhance it with more meaningful invariants and properties.

All checks pass. The specification:
Here's a summary of the specification at Examples/apanda/MaxCounter.lean:
State:
- counter : server → value — each server's current counter
- maxEverSet : value — tracks the maximum value any client has ever set
Actions:
- clientSet(s, v) — sets server s's counter to v if v is strictly greater than the current value; updates the global max tracker
- serverSync(src, dst) — if src's counter is greater than dst's, copies src's value to dst (models pairwise gossip)
Safety properties verified:
- bounded_by_max — no server's counter ever exceeds the max value ever set by a client
- counters_nonneg — all counters stay non-negative (monotonically increasing from zero)
Supporting invariants: bounded_inv, nonneg_inv, and max_nonneg for inductive verification.
The clientGet action was removed since it's a pure read with no state change — Veil models state transitions, so a no-op read doesn't add verification value. The convergence property (all servers eventually agree) is a liveness property which Veil's current safety-focused verification doesn't directly express, but the sat traces demonstrate the synchronization mechanism works correctly.
Can you write information about this specification in a Markdown file name Examples/apanda/MaxCounter.md
# Max Counter A distributed max-register protocol where multiple servers each maintain a counter value. Clients can update any server's counter, but updates only take effect if the new value is strictly greater than the current one. Servers periodically synchronize pairwise via gossip, propagating the maximum value across the cluster. ## System Model - **Servers** each hold a counter value, initialized to zero. - **Clients** interact with individual servers (no client-to-client communication). - **Synchronization** is pairwise: any two distinct servers can synchronize at any time, with the smaller counter adopting the larger value. ## Actions | Action | Description | |--------|-------------| | `clientSet(s, v)` | A client sets server `s`'s counter to `v`, but only if `v` is strictly greater than the server's current value. | | `serverSync(src, dst)` | Server `dst` adopts `src`'s counter value if it is strictly greater than its own. Models periodic pairwise gossip. | ## Properties Verified ### Safety - **`bounded_by_max`** — No server's counter ever exceeds the maximum value any client has ever set. - **`counters_nonneg`** — All counters remain at least zero (counters are monotonically non-decreasing). ### Supporting Invariants - **`bounded_inv`**, **`nonneg_inv`**, **`max_nonneg`** — Inductive strengthening of the safety properties. ### Sat Traces - Values can propagate between servers: two distinct servers can end up with the same non-zero value after a client set followed by a sync. - A server can hold a non-zero value after client interaction. ## Model Checking The specification is model-checked with `server := Fin 3`, `value := Fin 4` (3 servers, 4 possible counter values), exploring 64 reachable states with no violations. ## Convergence (Informal) In the absence of further client writes, repeated pairwise synchronization will cause all servers to converge to the same value — the maximum counter value held by any server. This is a liveness property and is not formally verified here, but the protocol structure guarantees it: each sync can only increase a counter, and the maximum value is always preserved.

Can you also create a skill (called Veil), with the appropriate metadata (see the jujutsu skill) that records everything you have learnt about writing Veil specifications.
{
"subagent_type": "Explore",
"prompt": "Find the jujutsu skill file(s) to understand the skill format and metadata structure. Search for files with \"jujutsu\" in the name, or look in common skill directories like .claude/skills/, ~/.claude/skills/, or similar. Also look for any other skill files to understand the pattern. Search broadly."
}Perfect! Now I have a comprehensive understanding of the skill format. Let me compile my findings. ## Summary I found the jujutsu skill files and other skill examples. Here's what I discovered about the skill format and metadata structure: ### Skill File Locations 1. **Jujutsu Skill (Main):** - `/Users/apanda/code/agent-spec/veil/.claude/skills/jujutsu.md` - `/Users/apanda/code/agent-spec/agent-spec-code/.claude/skills/jujutsu.md` 2. **Other Skill Files (for reference):** - `/Users/apanda/code/agent-spec/agent-spec-code/.claude/skills/gleam-otp.md` - `/Users/apanda/code/agent-spec/agent-spec-code/.claude/skills/create-emulation.md` ### Skill Format and Metadata Structure Skills are **Markdown files** located in the `.claude/skills/` directory. The format includes: **Metadata Section** (at the top of the file): ```markdown ## Metadata name: <skill name> description: <skill description> ``` **Content Sections:** - Organized with headers (## for main sections, ### for subsections) - Use markdown formatting (code blocks with language identifiers, bullet lists, etc.) - Example-driven with code snippets - Can reference other skills (e.g., the `create-emulation.md` skill references both `gleam-otp` and `jujutsu`) **Jujutsu Skill Specifics:** The jujutsu skill covers: - Version information (0.35.0 as of March 2026) - Key differences from Git (working copy snapshots, change IDs, no staging area) - Common commands (status, history, commits, file operations, branches, history rewriting) - Commit message format (with heredoc examples) - Useful revsets - Common workflows (gitignore handling, fixing commits) ### Configuration Skills are stored in the `.claude/skills/` directory and are referenced by the `Skill` tool. The settings are managed in `.claude/settings.local.json` which can contain permissions and other configuration (like attribution and plans directory).

3→**Version:** 0.35.0 (as of March 2026)
4→
5→> **Note:** Jujutsu is under active development. Commands and behavior may change between versions. Check `jj --version` and `jj <command> --help` if something doesn't work as expected.
6→
7→## Key Differences from Git
8→
9→- Working copy is automatically snapshotted on every command
10→- No staging area - all changes are part of the working copy commit
11→- Commits are identified by change IDs (stable) and commit IDs (change with rewrites)
12→- The `@` symbol refers to the current working copy commit
13→- `@-` refers to the parent of the working copy
14→
15→## Common Commands
16→
17→### Status and History
18→
19→```sh
20→jj status # Show working copy changes
21→jj log # Show commit history
22→jj log --limit 5 # Show last 5 commits
23→jj diff # Show changes in working copy
24→jj diff -r @- # Show changes in parent commit
25→```
26→
27→### Creating Commits
28→
29→```sh
30→jj commit -m "message" # Commit working copy with message
31→jj describe -m "message" # Set/change description of current commit
32→jj new # Create new empty commit on top of current
33→jj new -m "message" # Create new commit with message
34→```
35→
36→### File Operations
37→
38→**IMPORTANT:** File operations use `jj file` subcommand, not top-level commands.
39→
40→```sh
41→jj file list # List tracked files
42→jj file track <path> # Start tracking a file
43→jj file untrack <path> # Stop tracking a file (keeps file on disk)
44→jj file untrack 'glob/**' # Untrack files matching glob pattern
45→```
46→
47→> **Gotcha:** There is no `jj untrack` - you must use `jj file untrack`.
48→
49→### Restoring and Reverting
50→
51→```sh
52→jj restore <path> # Restore file to parent commit state
53→jj restore --from @- <path> # Restore from specific revision
54→```
55→
56→### Branches and Bookmarks
57→
58→```sh
59→jj bookmark list # List bookmarks (jj's term for branches)
60→jj bookmark create <name> # Create bookmark at current commit
61→jj bookmark set <name> # Move bookmark to current commit
62→```
63→
64→### Working with History
65→
66→```sh
67→jj squash # Squash current commit into parent
68→jj edit <revision> # Edit an earlier commit
69→jj rebase -d <destination> # Rebase current commit onto destination
70→```
71→
72→## Commit Message Format
73→
74→Use heredoc for multi-line messages:
75→
76→```sh
77→jj commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
78→Short summary line
79→
80→Longer description here.
81→Can be multiple paragraphs.
82→
83→Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
84→EOF
85→)"
86→```
87→
88→## Useful Revsets
89→
90→```sh
91→jj log -r @ # Current commit only
92→jj log -r @- # Parent of current
93→jj log -r @-- # Grandparent
94→jj log -r "heads()" # All head commits
95→jj log -r "root()..@" # All commits from root to current
96→```
97→
98→## Common Workflows
99→
100→### Adding .gitignore After Build Artifacts Exist
101→
102→1. Create `.gitignore` with patterns
103→2. Untrack the files that should be ignored:
104→ ```sh
105→ jj file untrack 'build/**'
106→ ```
107→3. Commit the changes
108→
109→### Fixing the Last Commit
110→
111→```sh
112→# Make changes to files, then:
113→jj squash # Squash changes into parent
114→# Or to change the message:
115→jj describe -m "new message"
116→```
117→
118→## Tips
119→
120→- Use `--no-pager` flag to disable paging for scripted output
121→- Use `-r` or `--revision` to specify which commit to operate on
122→- Check `jj <command> --help` for detailed options
123→- The working copy is always snapshotted automatically - no need to manually add files
124→Now let me check if there's any metadata file format (like frontmatter) or if it's just the markdown content.
1→{
2→ "attribution": {
3→ "commit": "🤖 Generated with Claude Code"
4→ },
5→ "permissions": {
6→ "allow": [
7→ "Bash(ls:*)",
8→ "Bash(wc:*)",
9→ "Bash(lake lean:*)"
10→ ]
11→ },
12→ "plansDirectory": "./claude-plans"
13→}
14→No skill registration needed — they're just markdown files in .claude/skills/. Now I'll create the Veil skill.
# Veil Specification Language
**Framework:** Veil — a Lean 4 DSL for specifying, testing, and verifying state transition systems (focused on distributed protocols).
> **Note:** Veil is embedded in Lean 4 v4.27.0. All specification files import `Veil` and use the Lake build system. New specifications for this project go in `Examples/apanda/`.
## Module Structure
Every Veil specification follows this order:
```
veil module Name
type/enum declarations
→ instantiate type class instances
→ state components (individual/relation/function, mutable/immutable)
→ #gen_state
→ ghost relations (optional)
→ after_init block
→ procedures/actions
→ safety/invariant/assumption properties
→ #gen_spec
→ verification commands (#model_check, #check_invariants, sat/unsat trace)
end Name
```
Minimal example:
```lean
import Veil
veil module MyProtocol
type node
relation flag : node → Bool
#gen_state
after_init {
flag N := false
}
action setFlag (n : node) {
flag n := true
}
safety [at_most_one] flag N ∧ flag M → N = M
#gen_spec
#model_check { node := Fin 3 }
end MyProtocol
```
## Type Declarations
### Abstract types (uninterpreted, finite for model checking)
```lean
type server
type client
type value
```
### Enum types (discrete finite values)
```lean
enum RMStateType = { working, prepared, committed, aborted }
```
### Custom structures (need `@[veil_decl]`)
```lean
@[veil_decl] structure Message (node : Type) where
payload : node
src : node
dst : node
```
### Type class instantiation
```lean
-- Total order (provides `le` relation)
instantiate tot : TotalOrder node
-- Total order with a minimum element `zero`
instantiate tot : TotalOrderWithZero value
-- LE + decidability + Ord (for List.insertOrdered etc.)
instantiate inst : LE node
instantiate decLE : DecidableRel inst.le
instantiate ord : Ord node
```
Access order fields via the instance name: `tot.le x y`, `tot.zero`.
## State Components
### Relations (boolean predicates, parameterized)
```lean
relation leader : node → Bool
relation pending : node → node → Bool
```
### Functions (parameterized state with non-Bool return type)
```lean
function counter : server → value
function rmState (r : RM) : RMStateType
```
### Individuals (global, non-parameterized state)
```lean
individual tmState : TMStateType
individual msgCommit : Bool
individual maxVal : value
```
### Immutable (constants, fixed after initialization)
```lean
immutable function nextNode : node → node
immutable relation topology : node → node → Bool
immutable individual first : node
```
## `#gen_state`
Place after all type, state, and type class declarations. Generates the state type.
```lean
#gen_state
```
## Ghost Relations
Derived boolean predicates for specification only. Must come after `#gen_state`. Only `relation` is supported (not `individual` or `function`).
```lean
ghost relation isNext (n : node) (next : node) :=
∀ Z, n ≠ next ∧ ((Z ≠ n ∧ Z ≠ next) → btw n next Z)
ghost relation terminated := ∀ i, ¬ active i
```
## `after_init` Block
Initializes all mutable state. Uses uppercase single-letter variables for universally quantified parameters.
```lean
after_init {
counter S := tot.zero
leader N := false
pending M N := false
tmState := init
}
```
Supported constructs:
- Direct assignment: `state X := value`
- Nondeterministic: `state := *`
- Conditional: `state X := if cond then v1 else v2`
- Pick (nondeterministic choice from a set): `let S ← pick someSet`
**Limitations:** Cannot use existential expressions (`∃`) in assignments.
## Actions and Procedures
### Actions (top-level transitions, part of the spec)
```lean
action clientSet (s : server) (v : value) {
require ¬ (tot.le v (counter s))
counter s := v
}
action serverSync (src dst : server) {
require src ≠ dst
if ¬ (tot.le (counter src) (counter dst)) then
counter dst := counter src
}
```
### Procedures (reusable helpers, called by actions)
```lean
procedure sendToNext (payload src : node) {
let msg := Message.mk payload src (nextNode src)
messages := messages.insertOrdered msg
}
action send (n : node) {
sendToNext n n
}
```
### Key constructs in actions/procedures
- `require cond` — precondition (action only enabled when true)
- `let x := expr` — local variable binding
- `let x :| condition` — nondeterministic choice satisfying condition
- `state := expr` — state update
- `if cond then ... else ...` — conditional
## Properties
### Safety (must never be violated)
```lean
safety [single_leader] leader N ∧ leader M → N = M
safety [bounded] ∀ (s : server), tot.le (counter s) maxVal
```
### Invariant (inductive strengthening for verification)
```lean
invariant [leader_greatest] leader L → le N L
invariant [nonneg] ∀ (s : server), tot.le tot.zero (counter s)
```
### Assumption (constraints on immutable state / initial conditions)
```lean
assumption [zero_le] ∀ n, seq.le seq.zero n
assumption [quorum_intersection] ∀ Q1 Q2, ∃ N, member N Q1 ∧ member N Q2
```
## `#gen_spec`
Place after all actions and properties. Generates verification conditions.
```lean
#gen_spec
-- or with timing:
#time #gen_spec
```
## Verification Commands
### Model checking (exhaustive, concrete)
Instantiate abstract types with finite types (typically `Fin n`). Immutable state can be given concrete values.
```lean
#model_check { server := Fin 3, value := Fin 4 }
#model_check { node := Fin 4 } { nextNode := fun n => n + 1 }
#model_check { RM := Fin 3 }
```
### Sat/unsat traces
```lean
-- Check that a state is reachable

### Invariant checking (SMT-based)
```lean
#check_invariants
```
## Building and Checking
```bash
lake exe cache get # Download mathlib (do first)
lake build # Build Veil library
lake lean Examples/apanda/MySpec.lean # Check a single file
```
If you get cvc5 errors: `rm -rf .lake/packages/cvc5` then `lake build`.
## Conventions
- Lean files use PascalCase
- Each file declares `veil module Name ... end Name` matching the file name
- Files import only `Veil`
- New specifications go in `Examples/apanda/`
- Variables in `after_init`, `safety`, `invariant` use uppercase single letters (`N`, `S`, `V`)
- Action parameters use lowercase (`src`, `dst`, `s`, `v`)
- Access type class fields via instance name (`tot.le`, `tot.zero`, `seq.le`)
- Use `¬ (tot.le x y)` instead of `tot.le y x ∧ x ≠ y` for "strictly greater"
## Common Patterns
### Tracking a global maximum
```lean
individual maxVal : value
after_init {
maxVal := tot.zero
}
action update (v : value) {
if ¬ (tot.le v maxVal) then
maxVal := v
}
safety [bounded] ∀ (s : server), tot.le (counter s) maxVal
```
### Pairwise synchronization (gossip)
```lean
action sync (src dst : server) {
require src ≠ dst
if ¬ (tot.le (counter src) (counter dst)) then
counter dst := counter src
}
```
### Monotonic state (value only increases)
```lean
action update (s : server) (v : value) {
require ¬ (tot.le v (counter s)) -- v > counter s
counter s := v
}
invariant [monotone_nonneg] ∀ (s : server), tot.le tot.zero (counter s)
```
### Message passing with lists
```lean
individual messages : List (Message node)
after_init {
messages := []
}
action send (payload src : node) {
let msg := Message.mk payload src (nextNode src)
messages := msg :: messages
}
action recv {
let m :| m ∈ messages
messages := messages.erase m
-- process m ...
}
```
