Rationale

Sometimes you may want to write Rust code that ought to be type-checked (e.g., borrow-checked) in the same fashion as real Rust code even though that code is never intended to be run / to affect or even reach code generation.

Why? Well, ok, this need is incredibly niche. But code verification tools can benefit from this, so there is a proposal out there to add a bunch of magic language features just to support this.

This crates is a demonstration of the vast majority of such features being achievable within already existing Stable Rust code, thanks to macros, type inference, and if false (+ unreachable code paths) tricks.

use ::ghosts::vestibule::*;

type Nat = u64;

fn fibo (
    ghost_ctx: Ectoplasm,
    n: Ghost<Nat>,
) -> Nat
{
    let n = ghost_ctx.materialize(n);
    ghost!(#[tag(decreases)] #[no_init] { n });
    match n {
        | 0 => 0,
        | 1 => 1,
        | _ => {
            fibo(ghost_ctx, ghost!(n - 1))
            +
            fibo(ghost_ctx, ghost!(n - 2))
        },
    }
}

fn lemma_fibo_is_monotonic (
    ghost_ctx: Ectoplasm,
    i: Ghost<Nat>,
