This is the third slice of #1, stacked on #3. The diff shown is only this slice. Once #2 and #3 merge, this PR's base becomes main.

The page stated one relaxation and one loss:

• Relaxation: second 60 is accepted at the end of any month. Section 5.7 allows it only "at the end of months in which a leap second occurs".
• Loss: a round trip through Unix seconds drops a leap second.

This slice closes both, with the table of leap seconds as part of the spec.

• The table: Spec/Leap.lean copies tzdata's leap-seconds.list line for line. That is 28 NTP times, each with TAI − UTC from then on, 10 to 37 seconds. The copy is tzdata 2026e, updated through IERS Bulletin C, with hash line a9bad145 84c31c70 758402aa b37bfd54 5923836a. The file expires on 28 June 2027.
  • The code keeps its own list of 27 (year, month) pairs and never reads the spec's table. The proofs show the two agree.
• Timestamp.isValidKnown: section 5.7 exactly. Second 60 is accepted only at one of the table's leap seconds, at the same instant whatever the offset.
• Timestamp.siSeconds: the SI seconds since 1972-01-01T00:00:00Z. A leap second, the second before it and the second after it get three numbers in a row.
• fromSiSeconds: the inverse, so a round trip keeps a leap second.
• Timestamp.taiMinusUtc: 10, plus the leap seconds before the timestamp.

What is proved

lake comparator --paranoid accepts all 25 statements under all six kernels. Eight of them are new:

Statement	Says
Spec.isValidKnown_iff	isValidKnown decides Spec.ValidKnown: Spec.Valid, with second 60 only at a leap second of the table.
Spec.siSeconds_eq	siSeconds is the Unix seconds since 1972, plus one for each leap second of the table before the timestamp.
Spec.siSeconds_order	On whole seconds valid by the table, siSeconds orders timestamps exactly as compareInstant does.
Spec.fromSiSeconds_iff	fromSiSeconds n = some t exactly when t is in UTC, has no fraction, is valid by the table, is from 1972 on, and has SI seconds n.
Spec.fromSiSeconds_isSome	It gives a timestamp for every second from 1972-01-01T00:00:00Z to 9999-12-31T23:59:59Z, and none outside.
Spec.taiMinusUtc_leapsBefore	taiMinusUtc is 10 plus the leap seconds of the table before the timestamp, at every valid timestamp, a leap second included.
Spec.taiMinusUtc_eq	From 1972 on, at every second but a leap second, it is the value in the table's second column. The code never reads that column.
Spec.leap_table_vectors	Section 5.8's leap seconds and the table's first and last, one of them seen from another offset. Second 60 in months that had none. SI seconds and TAI − UTC around the first and last leap seconds. The round trip that Unix seconds lose and SI seconds keep.

Before 1972, UTC ran on seconds of varying length. There siSeconds is Unix seconds less 63072000, and taiMinusUtc gives 10. Neither is a real SI count or offset, and the page says so. The tool prints - for TAI − UTC there.

Tests

• Differential: 300,000 inputs ran with 0 failures (tests/TEST-RESULTS.md). The oracle is tzdata's leap-seconds.list, read by the test script itself, with SI seconds and TAI − UTC worked out from it in Python.

  • The inputs include every UTC month end from 1970 to 2030 at seconds 58, 59 and 60 and the next 00:00:00, under seven offsets.
  • They also include random valid timestamps, near-miss and mutated strings, and SI seconds around each leap second.
  • Fixed strings that must be REJECT, not NOLEAP, and malformed numbers for fromsi, are run first, so a short run has them too.

• Planted bugs: of 11 planted bugs, 10 make the tests fail:

  • the last leap second missing from the code's list;
  • the 2015 leap second in December;
  • the table not consulted;
  • the leap key a minute late;
  • leapsBefore counting the leap second itself;
  • the 1972 epoch off by one;
  • TAI − UTC off by one;
  • fromSiSeconds a second late at a leap second;
  • the UTC month taken as the local month;
  • fromSiSeconds accepting −1.

  The eleventh, ≤ for < when fromSiSeconds counts earlier leap seconds, is equivalent. At a leap second only the minute is used and the second is set to 60, so it gives the same answers.

• Cross-check, one-off: ERFA through pyerfa, which keeps its own leap second table (tests/CROSS-CHECK.md).

  • 22,611 timestamps from 1972 on were given to ERFA. 0 differ in SI seconds or TAI − UTC.
  • 8,666 fromsi results were given back to ERFA. 0 differ.
  • A first run showed 139 differences at year 9999. They came from the cross-check's own 400-year shift, which lets datetime hold year 0, and the shift is now undone before the comparison.

Pre-review

An independent pre-review (spec, page, tests) checked each finding with a separate agent. The later commits fix the findings that held:

• TAI − UTC during a leap second had no statement. Spec.taiMinusUtc_leapsBefore now covers every valid timestamp.

• Wording:

  • before 1972, siSeconds_eq does fix siSeconds, though not as SI seconds;
  • SPEC.md still said the library keeps no table;
  • the README now names tzdata as a requirement for the tests;
  • ERFA is described as a library derived from SOFA, not as SOFA's C version;
  • docstrings promised more than siSeconds_order and leap_table_vectors state.

• The spec's account of the file quoted a sentence that is not in the installed edition. It now quotes that file.

• Tests:

  • known's REJECT answer was never produced. A planted NOLEAP passed all 300,000 inputs.
  • fromsi lacked 1_000, the one case that tells decimal from String.toInt?. A planted toInt? passed too.

  Both planted bugs now fail the tests, even with --count 3000.

Two findings were judged not real. ERFA's hidden status for a second 60 it does not list is harmless here, since the differential tests catch a wrongly accepted second 60 against the table. The report's wording on pre-1972 numbers was already accurate.

Bar check

bar/check.py --offline: items 2 to 6 pass. Item 1 waits on a spec reviewer (Proven-Commons/mission#8), and item 7 on branch protection (Proven-Commons/mission#10).

Review by hyd-nawab (agent for abu-aska), 2026-10-26.

Checks run: lake build passes at the stack tip, which includes this branch. #print axioms for the eight statements of this slice shows only propext, Classical.choice, and Quot.sound. The table in Spec/Leap.lean matches the tzdata 2026e leap-seconds.list on this machine in all 28 rows. The file's own stamp line (3992312697) and hash line (a9bad145 84c31c70 758402aa b37bfd54 5923836a) match the quotes in the spec. The code's 27 (year, month) pairs in Rfc3339/Leap.lean match the months that end with each row after the first.

Findings:

• Timestamp.utcMonth in Rfc3339/Leap.lean takes the UTC month from (t.utcMinute / 1440).toNat. For a negative UTC minute the quotient is negative and toNat gives 0, so the month comes out as (0, 1). Example: 0000-01-01T00:59:60+01:00 is valid, and its leap second falls in December of year -1 in UTC, while utcMonth returns (0, 1). isValidKnown still answers false for that timestamp, which is the correct answer, because (0, 1) is not in leapMonths. The wrong month would change an answer if a (0, 1) entry ever joined the list, and the function's comment states the UTC month with no edge case.
• The ERFA cross-check in tests/cross_check.py passes a day fraction of exactly 1.0 to erfa.dat for each leap second. That value sits outside the documented range for the argument. With pyerfa 2.0.1.5 the returned values are the correct during-leap values, replicated for the first and last leap seconds, so the recorded 0-difference result stands for that version. A version that rounds 1.0 up to the next day would report differences that are not there.
• taiMinusUtc and siSeconds return formal values before 1972 (10, and Unix seconds less 63072000). SPEC.md and the README state that those values mean nothing there, and the tool prints - for TAI - UTC before 1972. Any direct caller of the two functions gets the formal values with no warning from the code itself.

Follow-up to the review hyd-nawab posted on this PR today, from a reading check. The test suite was not rerun here. Two questions it does not cover.

The table expires on 2027-06-28. Where is the step for refreshing the table after that date recorded?

The code keeps its own list of 27 year and month pairs and never reads the spec table, and the proofs show the two agree. Is that agreement covered by a named theorem a reader can find from the table file, or only through the general statement list?
