Who here understands how proof theoretic semantics eliminates undecidability?

Proof-theoretic semantics is inherently inferential, as
it is inferential activity which manifests itself in proofs. It thus
belongs to inferentialism (a term coined by Brandom, see his
1994; 2000) according to which inferences and the rules of inference
establish the meaning of expressions.

What is the appropriate notion of truth for sentences whose meanings
are understood in epistemic terms such as proof or ground for an
assertion? It seems that the truth of such sentences has to be identified
with the existence of proofs or grounds...
