I started working on this with Andrea at the Agda Implementer’s meeting. The idea is that you can add a constructor for transp to your inductive families but then reduce it to during pattern matching. This is similar to the way comp is implemented now. In the case of the equality type that should give you a type which is isomorphic to the path type but intentionally behaves differently, in particular J-beta holds. This is an alternative to Andrew Swan’s solution, I think.

For one thing, the cubical identity type (derived from the cubical path type via Andrew Swan's technique) is not an Agda inductive family and it is not Agda's inductively defined identity type. And also, as far as I know, inductive families RE an open problem in cubical type theory / the cubical model(s). Any development in Agda invoking --cubical that tries to be sound should, for the moment, refrain from using inductive families. In fact, in would be good to discuss the precautions one should take when using --cubical in Agda so that one is guaranteed to be consistent, and better, be talking about something that is currently understood (such as entities in the cubical model((s)). It is not entirely clear to me which features of Agda we can use and which ones we should not use and which ones we could use if we knew more.

I didn't realise it was about the cubical agda. You get Cubical Agda by using the option --cubical (for instance in a pragma: {-# OPTIONS --cubical #-}). The idea is that it should be sound to import Agda code that uses --without-K from Cubical Agda. -- /NAD -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Homotopy Type Theory" group.
