Mypyc runtime TypeError exceptions when you change inherited method to a staticmethod

Crash Report

Using mypyc to compile an ABC subclass with @classmethod and implement it in a subclass as @staticmethod leads to runtime type exceptions.

checkers_minimax.py

from abc import ABC


class State:
    """State object."""


class MinimaxWithTT(ABC):
    @classmethod
    def terminal(cls, state: State) -> bool:
        return False

    def alphabeta_transposition_table(
        self,
        state: State,
    ) -> None:
        print(f"Just before crash {type(state) = }")
        self.terminal(state)


class CheckersMinimax(MinimaxWithTT):
    @staticmethod
    def terminal(state: State) -> bool:
        return False


def run() -> None:
    mm = CheckersMinimax()
    mm.alphabeta_transposition_table(State())


if __name__ == "__main__":
    run()

mypyc checkers_minimax.py
python -c "from checkers_minimax import run; run()"

To Reproduce

Your Environment

• Mypy version used: mypy 1.17.1 (compiled: yes)
• Mypy command-line flags: See above
• Mypy configuration options from mypy.ini (and other config files): None
• Python version used: Python 3.13.3 (main, Jun 16 2025, 18:15:32) [GCC 14.2.0] on linux
• Operating system and version:

> uname -a

Commencez par la reproduction dans checkers_minimax.py et exécutez la commande mypyc documentée, suivie de l’invocation de Python. Suivez la manière dont mypyc traite le classmethod hérité redéfini en staticmethod ; le travail est terminé lorsque le programme compilé s’exécute sans le TypeError signalé et que la régression est couverte par un test approprié.
