Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Smart contracts act as immutable and trusted intermediaries, ensuring transactions comply with contractual terms. As translating natural-language legal contracts into executable smart contracts is time-consuming and error-prone, formal specification languages such as Symboleo were introduced as intermediate representations that enable verification and code generation. Yet, writing or generating such specifications correctly still requires time and specialized expertise. To reduce manual effort in this context, this paper investigates a new repair approach that combines Large Language Models with compiler feedback. We propose an automated agent (SymboleoFix) that iteratively repairs Symboleo specifications, correcting many syntactic, semantic, and type-related errors. Preliminary experimental results from a case study suggest that SymboleoFix can help most eliminate syntactic errors, reduce the need for manual intervention, and improve specification accuracy.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
