# Temporal Logic Translator

## Purpose

Provides expert guidance on temporal logic specification and translation between formalisms.

## Capabilities

- LTL to Buchi automata
- CTL to CTL* comparison
- Natural language to temporal logic
- Property pattern templates
- Formula equivalence checking
- Negation normal form conversion

## Usage Guidelines

1. **Property Identification**: Identify desired system properties
2. **Formalization**: Express in appropriate temporal logic
3. **Translation**: Convert between formalisms if needed
4. **Pattern Matching**: Use property pattern templates
5. **Verification**: Check formula equivalence
