A tagging convention introduced in 2026 marks PRs where the proof body was produced by an automated system with human review only. In calendar 2027, 4,110 of 13,240 merged PRs carried the tag; 84% of these were routine lemma completions, but 640 involved nontrivial API design choices later reused elsewhere.
