The end goal in all of this is that the user (perhaps a logician rather than a computer scientist) will describe the calculus they wish to use in a simple DSL. This DSL will then be translated into Haskell and linked against some infrastructure implementing general tableaux bits and pieces. These logic implementations ought to be composable such that we can define modal logic to be propositional calculus with the addition of [] and <>.
Is there a need for a custom DSL or will it be possible to express theorems in Haskell? QuickCheck can test properties which are just Haskell functions with random input, so it would be comfortable to use these properties for proving, too. There is also the proof editor Alfa. As far as know it is written in Haskell but the theorems are not expressed in Haskell.
