| 1 | += Reversibility (Tooling) |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +This document describes tooling-related support for reversible workflows. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +These features are experimental and not guaranteed to be complete or stable. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +== Overview |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +Tooling aims to support: |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +- Inspection of execution |
| 12 | +- Limited undo/rollback where available |
| 13 | +- Analysis of program behaviour |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +This is separate from language-level reversibility. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +== Execution Tracing |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Tracing records execution steps for later inspection. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +[source,bash] |
| 22 | +---- |
| 23 | +jtv run program.jtv --trace > execution.log |
| 24 | +---- |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +Analysis tools may be available: |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +[source,bash] |
| 29 | +---- |
| 30 | +jtv trace analyze execution.log |
| 31 | +jtv trace replay execution.log --steps 1-10 |
| 32 | +---- |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +== Status |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +- Tracing: partial / experimental |
| 37 | +- Replay: not fully implemented |
| 38 | +- No guarantee of deterministic replay |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +== Configuration Undo |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +Configuration changes may support rollback mechanisms. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +[source,bash] |
| 45 | +---- |
| 46 | +jtv config set telemetry false |
2 | 47 | jtv config undo |
| 48 | +---- |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +== Status |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +- Partial support |
| 53 | +- Not comprehensive across all configuration fields |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +== Transactions (Conceptual) |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +Some operations may be grouped into transactional units: |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +[source] |
| 60 | +---- |
| 61 | +begin_transaction(); |
| 62 | +rollback_transaction(); |
| 63 | +commit_transaction(); |
| 64 | +---- |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +== Status |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +- Conceptual or partial |
| 69 | +- Not uniformly enforced across system |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +== Audit Logging |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +Operations may be logged for inspection. |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +[source,bash] |
| 76 | +---- |
3 | 77 | jtv audit log |
| 78 | +---- |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +== Status |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +- Logging exists in parts of the system |
| 83 | +- Not complete or standardized |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +== Limitations |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +- No global undo system |
| 88 | +- No guarantee that all operations are reversible |
| 89 | +- External effects (files, network) are not reversible |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +== Summary |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +Tooling provides partial support for inspection and limited rollback. |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +It does not provide full operational reversibility. |
