We extend proof automation in an interactive theorem prover to analyze changes in specifications and proofs. Our approach leverages the history of changes to specifications and proofs to search for a patch that can be applied to other specifications and proofs that need to change in analogous ways.

We identify and implement five core components that are key to searching for a patch. We build a patch finding procedure from these components, which we configure for various classes of changes. We implement this procedure in a Coq plugin as a proof-of-concept and use it on real Coq code to change specifications, port definitions of a type, and update the Coq standard library. We show how our findings help drive a future that moves the burden of dealing with the brittleness of small changes in an interactive theorem prover away from the programmer and into automated tooling.
