A regulator asks your team to explain one specific loan decline from nine months ago: what exactly did the model see, which model version produced the score and why. Nobody can reproduce it. What should the system have recorded, and how would you design reproducibility into a production model?

Tests: Lineage and reproducibility: what to log per prediction, versioning of code, model, features and data, retention cost, and the limits of re-computation.
