lean-rs-worker

Worker-process boundary for lean-rs host workloads. Supervises a lean-rs-worker-child process around the in-process theorem-prover stack in lean-rs-host, adding fatal-exit containment, memory cycling, request timeouts, and parent-owned row streaming.

Use this crate when a downstream tool needs process isolation, live rows, diagnostics, terminal summaries, request timeouts, or memory cycling. Use lean-rs-host directly for trusted in-process work that does not need those guarantees.

Quick start in this repo

cargo run -p lean-rs-worker --example worker_capability_runner

The runner is the normal downstream shape: LeanWorkerCapabilityBuilder manages startup, typed commands carry requests and rows, diagnostics arrive on a separate sink, and explicit cycling resets process-global memory. The full recipe is docs/recipes/worker-capability-runner.md.

This in-tree example uses the workspace worker child. It is useful for learning the API and for testing lean-rs-worker itself.

Ship your own worker app

For a shipped application, build the Lean capability in build.rs with lean_toolchain::CargoLeanCapability, embed the resulting path with lean_rs::LeanBuiltCapability::path(env!(...)), and ship an app-owned worker child binary:

fn main() -> std::process::ExitCode {
    lean_rs_worker::run_worker_child_stdio()
}

Point the builder at that binary with LeanWorkerChild::sibling("my_app_lean_worker").env_override("MY_APP_LEAN_WORKER"). This is the production packaging path because Cargo does not install dependency binaries as part of your application. See docs/recipes/ship-crate-with-lean.md.

What the crate does not own

  • Downstream command names, request schemas, row schemas, summary schemas.
  • Cache validity, ranking, reporting, source provenance, CLI policy.
  • Child PIDs, worker IDs, pipes, protocol frames, or which warm worker the pool selected.
  • Remote (cross-host) workers, byte callbacks, object callbacks. These are non-goals for the current local-scale release; see docs/architecture/28-production-scale-release.md.

Key behaviors

Cycling is the reset boundary for Lean process-global memory. A LeanWorkerRestartPolicy cycles the child before requests when a configured request count, import-like request count, RSS ceiling, or idle duration is reached. SessionPool::drain() is an in-process cache operation, not an RSS reset.

Startup and request timeouts are independent. Startup timeout covers the child handshake. Request timeout covers one request after its frame is written, including live rows, diagnostics, progress, and terminal response. On request-timeout expiry the supervisor kills and replaces the child, records LeanWorkerRestartReason::RequestTimeout, returns LeanWorkerError::Timeout, and invalidates the open worker session.

Row delivery uses bounded internal buffering. Slow sinks block the request path instead of growing memory without bound. Rows are never dropped for committed streams. Delivered rows are tentative until terminal success returns LeanWorkerTypedStreamSummary with total rows, per-stream counts, elapsed time, and optional typed metadata.

Large row streams use a raw-JSON payload fast path. The child validates payload as JSON, the protocol carries it without building a serde_json::Value tree, and typed commands deserialize directly into the caller row type at the parent boundary. LeanWorkerDataRow remains the schema-less escape hatch when callers want arbitrary inspection rather than maximum throughput.

RSS sampling is best-effort and platform-specific. Unavailable samples are recorded as unavailable, not as a false claim that the pool is under budget.

Capability metadata and doctor checks are separate from row streams. LeanWorker::runtime_metadata reports protocol facts from the child handshake. LeanWorkerSession::capability_metadata and LeanWorkerSession::capability_doctor call downstream exports with ABI String -> IO String, decode the returned JSON into generic command, capability, version, and diagnostic envelopes, and leave cache policy and semantic command meaning to the downstream tool.

Lean-side helpers

Lean capability packages should use LeanRsInterop.Worker.Stream from lean-rs-interop-shims when emitting worker streams. The helpers build row, diagnostic, progress, terminal-metadata, and status envelopes for the child-local string callback path. They do not define downstream row schemas, command names, session keys, or pool scheduling policy.

More examples

Command Purpose
cargo run -p lean-rs-worker --example worker_streaming Typed streaming command with parent-side watchdog and worker cycling.
cargo run --release -p lean-rs-worker --example worker_capability_probe Operational probe over generic command shapes (version, doctor, extract, features, index, probe); records cold startup, first import, cancellation latency, fatal-exit recovery, cycling, throughput, RSS. Set LEAN_RS_WORKER_COMPARE_COMMAND=… to time a comparison command alongside.
cargo run -p lean-rs-worker --example worker_pool Pool, lease acquisition, typed streaming command, leased-worker cycling.
cargo run -p lean-rs-worker --example pool_memory_scheduling Pool memory-aware admission and cycling under a small import policy. Records parent RSS, child RSS snapshots, unavailable samples, budget admission, policy restarts.
cargo run -p lean-rs-worker --example mathlib_scale_probe Planner → pool → lease → typed command path. Set LEAN_RS_MATHLIB_ROOT=/path/to/mathlib4 to use a real module list as planning workload.
cargo run -p lean-rs-worker --example lean_dup_readiness Readiness fixture over all command shapes. Set LEAN_RS_LEAN_DUP_ROOT=/path/to/checkout to record the comparison checkout's revision; set LEAN_RS_WORKER_COMPARE_COMMAND=… to time a comparison command.

The mathlib_scale_probe and pool_memory_scheduling examples need the worker child built first: cargo build -p lean-rs-worker --bin lean-rs-worker-child.
