Subject: [PATCH 01/20] test: Add reproduction for list.append() hole not
 mutating receiver

list.append() is translated to a deterministic hole whose return value
is discarded. Since ListAny is a value type (not heap-allocated), the
hole has no effect on the list variable. The list remains empty, causing
downstream truthiness checks to evaluate to false and for-loop bodies
to be reported as unreachable.

Subject: [PATCH 02/20] fix: Havoc value-typed locals referenced in unmodeled
 calls

When a call translates to a hole, havoc any value-typed local variables
that appear as the receiver or arguments, since the unmodeled call may
mutate them and they are not reachable via heap havoc.

For method calls (receiver.method(args)), havoc both the receiver and
any local variable arguments. For plain function calls (f(args)), havoc
any local variable arguments.

Without this fix, value-typed locals (ListAny, DictStrAny) retain
their last assigned value through holes, causing false unreachability
reports when downstream code checks truthiness of the receiver.

Extend mkHavocStmtsForUnmodeledCall to also havoc non-composite local
variables passed as arguments, since the unmodeled call may have side
effects on them (e.g., iterating over an iterable argument).

Add test case for d.update(other) to test_havoc_callee_after_hole_call.

Replace d.update(other) with xs2.unknown_method_that_may_modify_arguments(ys)
since update doesn't actually mutate its argument. The unknown method
makes the motivation clear: the call is a black box that could modify
any argument.

Subject: [PATCH 06/20] fix: Only havoc Any-typed arguments in unmodeled calls

Primitive types (int, bool, str) are pass-by-value in Python and
cannot be mutated by a callee. Only havoc arguments whose tracked
type is Any, since those could be mutable containers (lists, dicts)
in the value-type model. Composite types are already covered by
the heap havoc.

Subject: [PATCH 07/20] docs: Document that composite heap havoc is out of
 scope

Add comment noting that composite-typed arguments are not havoc'd
by this change. Havocing the heap for unmodeled calls that receive
composites requires coordination with HeapParameterization.

Subject: [PATCH 08/20] fix: Update havoc test to use truthiness checks in
 bugFinding mode

Rewrite test to use if-truthiness checks instead of equality assertions,
which are more sensitive to the havoc. Use bugFinding mode to detect
unreachable paths. Verified havoc is emitted in Laurel intermediate:
xs := <?> after append, ys := <<??>> after unknown_method.

Restore the original assertion-based test cases from PR 978. The test
now accurately reflects what PR 1019 covers:
- Line 8: standalone method call receiver havoc (unknown)
- Line 30: argument havoc (unknown)
- Lines 12, 16: assignment and chained calls (not yet covered)
- Lines 20, 25: negative cases (correctly pass)

Subject: [PATCH 10/20] fix: Move havoc from Expr handler to translateCall

Move receiver and argument havoc into translateCall where the Hole
is first produced. This ensures havoc works for all call sites:
standalone expressions, assignments, and chained calls. The havoc
assignments are wrapped in a Block with the Hole as the last
expression (the block's return value).

Previously the havoc was only in the Expr handler, which missed
the assignment case (ys = xs.method()) entirely.

Update test_missing_models expected output for changed path counts.

Subject: [PATCH 13/20] fix: Handle Hole in statement position in
 LaurelToCoreTranslator

When translateCall wraps havoc statements in a Block, the trailing Hole
inside the Block can end up in statement position during downstream
processing. The LaurelToCoreTranslator's catch-all case tried to
translate it as an expression via exprAsUnusedInit, which called
translateExpr and hit the 'holes should have been eliminated' error.

Add an explicit Hole case to translateStmt that treats it as a no-op
(empty statement list), since a Hole in statement position has no
observable effect.

Subject: [PATCH 14/20] Add Strata internal benchmarks Github Action (#1070)

(Moves https://github.com/strata-org/Strata/pull/1060 to a branch of
this upstream repo) This pull request adds a Codebuild setup connected
to Github Action for Strata internal benchmark setup.

Only authorized people can access to the S3 bucket and download it
(hence external users outside Amazon cannot get any info about the
internal benchmarks). The Github Action log only shows that the
Codebuild is running or finished.

~~Once successful, the CI check results will look like that of
https://github.com/aqjune-aws/Strata/pull/3~~ This pull request's CI is
successfully checking the internal benchmarks. You can see `Build / Run
internal benchmarks of Strata (pull_request)` from Github workflow, and
it will have printed the S3 log URL.

By submitting this pull request, I confirm that you can use, modify,
copy, and redistribute this contribution, under the terms of your
choice.

Subject: [PATCH 15/20] PySpec pipeline: fix type mismatches, add type
 assertions, and clean up translation (#1048)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Overview

Overhaul the PySpec-to-Laurel translation pipeline to fix type
incompatibilities between pyspec and Python-source code paths, generate
accurate type assertions in procedure bodies, and clean up
dead/redundant code. These changes improve verification accuracy for
pyspec-annotated libraries by ensuring type constraints are generated
consistently with the Laurel runtime type system.

## Issues Fixed

**Cross-module type references resolve incorrectly.**
`specArgToFuncDeclArg` in PySpecPipeline.lean derived Laurel type names
using the function's module prefix rather than the type's own
`PythonIdent.pythonModule`. A pyspec function in module `foo`
referencing a type from module `bar.baz` would produce `foo_MyClass`
instead of `bar_baz_MyClass`. Fixed by introducing
`PythonIdent.toLaurelName` which uses the type's own module, and
`specArgLaurelType` which mirrors `specTypeToLaurelType`'s logic.

**Redundant call-site type preconditions.** PySpec procedure bodies
already generate `assert Any..isfrom_int(x)` etc. via `buildSpecBody`,
but `specArgToFuncDeclArg` also populated `typeTesters`, causing
PythonToLaurel to emit duplicate type constraints at each call site.
Fixed by setting `typeTesters := #[]` for pyspec args and removing the
now-unused `specArgTypeTesters` function.

**`typeTester?` only handled singleton types.** The old `typeTester?`
used `SpecType.asIdent` which requires exactly one atom, silently
producing no assertion for union types like `Union[int, str]`. Replaced
with `typeAssertion?` which iterates all atoms and builds a disjunction
(`isfrom_int(v) || isfrom_str(v)`).

**Missing type testers for common builtins.** `toTypeTester?` only
covered `int`, `str`, `bool`, `float`, and `None`. Added mappings for
`bytes` → `Any..isfrom_bytes`, `List`/`Sequence` →
`Any..isfrom_ListAny`, `Dict`/`Mapping` → `Any..isfrom_DictStrAny`, and
`Exception` → `Any..isexception`, matching the `Any` datatype
constructors in the Laurel Python prelude.

**No assertions for literal types.** `Literal[42]` and
`Literal["hello"]` produced no type assertions. `atomAssertion?` now
generates `isfrom_int(v) && as_int!(v) == 42` for int literals and
`isfrom_str(v) && as_string!(v) == "hello"` for string literals.
TypedDict atoms are approximated as `isfrom_DictStrAny` with a warning.

**Unsupported types in unions silently dropped.** When a union contains
atoms without testers (e.g., user-defined classes in `Union[None,
MyClass]`), the old code silently skipped them. `typeAssertion?` now
warns via `unsupportedUnion` for ident atoms without testers in unions
and for TypedDict atoms. Singleton composite types (user-defined classes
used alone) are not warned — they are expected to have no tester.

**Redundant `!isfrom_None` checks for typed parameters.**
`buildSpecBody` had separate loops for type assertions and
required-param checks. A required `int` parameter would get both `assert
isfrom_int(x)` and `assert !isfrom_None(x)`, but the first already
implies the second. Combined into a single loop: typed params get only
the type assertion; untyped required params still get the `!isfrom_None`
check.

**`PyArgInfo.tys` was a raw `List String` coupling pyspec and Python
paths.** Replaced with structured `laurelType : HighTypeMd` and
`typeTesters : Array String` fields. Similarly, `PythonFunctionDecl.ret`
changed from `Option (List String × MetaData)` to `Option PyRetInfo`.
All construction and consumption sites updated.

## Upstream Compatibility Fixes

Three targeted fixes address regressions exposed by the more complete
pipeline translation, all caused by pre-existing issues in upstream data
or earlier translation stages:

**Skip return-type `assume` for NoneType (ToLaurel.lean).** Generated
Python stubs declare `-> None` for API methods that actually return
response dicts. With transparent procedure bodies, `buildSpecBody` now
generates `assume Any..isfrom_None(result)`, making all downstream field
access on the return value unreachable — a false positive. The fix skips
the return-type `assume` when the declared type is `NoneType`. This is a
temporary workaround pending a stub-generator fix to emit correct return
types. Resolves benchmark regressions.

**Return Hole for module attribute access (PythonToLaurel.lean).**
`sys.argv`, `os.path`, and similar module-level attribute accesses
generated `FieldSelect (Identifier "sys") "argv"`, but imported modules
are not declared as Laurel variables. The fix returns `Hole` when the
object expression is a known package (via `isPackage`), matching the
existing handling for unmodeled package function calls. Resolves
benchmark regression.

**Drop bare `raise` instead of emitting untyped Hole
(PythonToLaurel.lean).** A bare `raise` inside an exception handler
produced a Hole whose return type could not be inferred, leaving it as
`Unknown` and failing the Laurel-to-Core translator. The fix emits no
statements for `raise`, which is safe under the current exception model
where propagation is tracked via `maybe_except`/`isError` checks. This
is a placeholder pending proper exception modeling. Resolves benchmark
regression.

## Additional Details

- `toTypeTester?` refactored from an if-else chain to a `Std.HashMap`
lookup (`typeTestersMap`).
- `SpecType.mk` made private; callers use smart constructors (`ident`,
`noneType`, `intLiteral`, `stringLiteral`, `typedDict`, `unionArray`).
`sizeOf_atom_lt_of_mem` theorem added for termination proofs.
- Duplicate-element bug fixed in `unionAux` (equal elements were
double-counted).
- Dead `pythonToLaurel` wrapper removed; `pythonToLaurel'` renamed to
`pythonToLaurel`.
- Dead `PythonIdent.toPyLauType?` removed (replaced by `toTypeTester?` /
`specArgLaurelType`).
- Dead `emptyType` warning kind and unreachable code branch removed.
- Unified `transExpr` replaces ~10 separate expression translators
(`extractSubject`, `transAssertExpr`, `transCondition`,
`transMessageExpr`, `inferExprType`, `extractIntBound`,
`extractFloatBound`, `collectEnumValues`, `isIntType`, `isFloatType`,
`lookupTypedDictField`, `extractElementType`,
`extractDictKeyValueTypes`) with a single recursive function that
returns `(SpecExpr × SpecType)`. This enables type-directed translation
(e.g., choosing int vs float comparison) and eliminates duplicate
pattern matching.
- `SpecExpr.len` renamed to `SpecExpr.stringLen` for clarity.
- `extractFunctionSignatures` uses `Array` instead of `List`
accumulator.
- `runTest` in ToLaurelTest.lean now prints warnings before procedures
so `#guard_msgs` can verify them.
- `SpecAssertionContext.kwargs` simplified from separate
`kwargsParamName`/`kwargsType` fields to a single `Option (String ×
SpecType)`.
- `assumeCondition` simplified to always take a condition (no `Option`
wrapper).
- `PySpecMClass.runNoWarn` added to check that an action produces no
errors or warnings.

## Test Changes

- **ToLaurelTest.lean**: All `SpecAtomType` references replaced with
`SpecType` smart constructors. Body structure tests updated to reflect
combined type/required-param assertions (typed params no longer have
`!isfrom_None`). Expected output updated for new warnings on
`bytearray`, `complex`, user-defined types in unions, and TypedDict
approximation.
- **PySpecArgTypeTest.lean**: Updated to verify `typeTesters` is empty
(body assertions make call-site ones redundant). Added end-to-end test
using `formatProcedure` to verify full procedure body through DDM
round-trip, confirming body contains `assert Any..isfrom_int(x)`,
`assert Any..isfrom_str(y)`, and `assume Any..isfrom_float(result)`.
- **DeclsTest.lean**: Migrated to use `unionArray` for dedup tests.
- **SpecsTest.lean**: Minor import path update.

Subject: [PATCH 16/20] fix: Remove argHavoc from unmodeled calls to fix CI

The argHavoc logic was havocking all non-composite arguments passed to
unmodeled calls, but variableTypes stores 'Any' for all non-composite
types (str, int, list, etc.), making it impossible to distinguish
mutable from immutable arguments. This caused spurious havocs of
immutable arguments (e.g., str parameters passed to open()), which
broke the Laurel-to-Core translation pipeline.

Remove argHavoc and keep only receiverHavoc, which correctly havocs
the method receiver on unmodeled method calls.

Subject: [PATCH 17/20] fix: Restore argument havoc for unmodeled calls

Revert the test and expected output changes from commit 94e6ba8 and
restore the argHavoc logic that havocs Any-typed arguments passed to
unmodeled method calls. An unknown method is a black box that could
mutate its arguments when they are not primitive types.

The argHavoc checks the tracked type in variableTypes: only variables
with type 'Any' (which includes list, dict, and other mutable
containers in the value-type model) are havocked. Primitive types
(int, bool, str, float) are tracked with their specific type names
and are not affected.

Subject: [PATCH 18/20] fix: Handle Hole RHS in Assign as havoc in
 LaurelToCoreTranslator

When an unmodeled call generates a Block with Assign statements that
have Hole as their RHS (to havoc receiver/arguments), the Assign
handler in translateStmt was falling through to translateExpr for the
Hole value, which is disallowed in expression position. Add an explicit
case for Hole RHS that translates to a havoc statement instead.
