GitHub and Microsoft Research announce PDD Kit, a proof-driven development tool now in research preview that works with GitHub Next's Chopin.

According to GitHub's post, PDD Kit turns a plan into a formal specification written in Verus, a proof language for Rust, and the Verus verifier then proves that the agent's code meets that specification.

Where a formal proof is not possible, PDD Kit falls back to tests and computer-use agents, GitHub says. The post states the tool works on Rust today.
