Feature-flag service: toggle named flags on/off, query state, list all
Booleans stored as "on"/"off" strings in a persistent map.
A Soma program from the web part of the verified corpus: 61 lines, cells Flags, FlagsTest. It passes soma check with soma 3.2.4.
How it is built
The cell Flags declares 4 signals in its face: request(method: String, path: String, body: String) -> Map, set_flag(name: String, enabled: Bool) -> Map, is_on(name: String) -> Bool and all_flags() -> Map; keeps 1 memory slot: flags (Map<String, String>, persistent and consistent). Handlers: set_flag (line 17), is_on (line 22), all_flags (line 26) and request (line 34).
The file also holds 1 test cell (FlagsTest) with 4 assertions, run by soma test.

$ soma check feature_flags.cell
✓ All checks passed.$ soma test feature_flags.cell
test FlagsTest ...
✓ assert set_flag("dark_mode", true).enabled == true
✓ assert is_on("dark_mode") == true
✓ assert is_on("never_set") == false
✓ assert _summary() == "beta=true,dark=false"

Verifying feature_flags.cell...
No state machine in this program: nothing to prove beyond `soma check` (invariants and lifecycles are what verify proves).
note: the soma.toml beside this file declares [verify] properties; none applies here (no state machine)
