Mistral AI Releases Leanstral 1.5: An Apache-2.0 Lean 4 Code Agent Model Solving 587 of 672 PutnamBench Problems
587 of 672. That's Mistral's new Leanstral 1.5 solving Putnam-level math proofs—open source, Apache 2.0, and it's already finding real bugs.

Why it matters
Mistral ships a specialized code agent model that outperforms on formal reasoning benchmarks while staying fully open source. This signals a shift toward task-specific, efficient MoE models competing with closed generalists on narrow but valuable domains.
