What it does

Translates Mermaid sequenceDiagrams describing cryptographic protocols into ProVerif formal verification models (.pv files). Use when generating a ProVerif model, formally verifying a protocol, converting a Mermaid diagram to ProVerif, verifying protocol security properties (secrecy, authentication, forward secrecy), checking for replay attacks, or producing a .pv file from a sequence diagram.

Mermaid to ProVerif

Reads a Mermaid sequenceDiagram describing a cryptographic protocol and produces a ProVerif model (.pv file) that can be passed directly to the ProVerif verifier.

Tools used: Read, Write, Grep, Glob.

The typical input is the output of the crypto-protocol-diagram skill, a Mermaid sequenceDiagram annotated with cryptographic operations (Sign, Verify, DH, HKDF, Enc, Dec, etc.) and message arrows.

When to Use

  • User asks to formally verify a cryptographic protocol described as a Mermaid sequenceDiagram
  • User wants to generate a ProVerif model (.pv file) from a protocol diagram
  • User wants to prove secrecy, authentication, or forward secrecy properties
  • Input is the output of the crypto-protocol-diagram skill

When NOT to Use

  • No Mermaid sequenceDiagram exists yet, use crypto-protocol-diagram first to generate one
  • User wants to verify properties of non-cryptographic systems (state machines, access control)
  • User wants to run ProVerif on an existing .pv file, just run proverif model.pv directly
