Reproducibility Outside Notebooks
Reproducibility outside notebooks depends on persistent sessions, stable state, and replayable output.

Notebook workflows bake in state, which makes reproducibility fragile. Outside notebooks, reproducibility depends on durable sessions and output replay.
What makes reproducibility hard
- state lives in a transient session,
- output is lost between reconnects,
- long tasks are re-run instead of resumed.
The continuity approach
A persistent environment keeps the session and output alive so you can reproduce results without re-running everything from scratch.
