Diagnosing a Flawed Reasoning System

A problem-solving system is designed to generate a multi-step mathematical proof. During testing, it consistently produces proofs that contain a single, subtle logical error in one of the intermediate steps. The final answer is incorrect, but the system confidently presents the flawed proof as a valid solution. The mechanism responsible for expanding the search space and generating potential next steps is confirmed to be working correctly. Based on the described behavior, which core component of the step-level search framework is most likely malfunctioning, and why?
