## Known Limitations
66+
67+
Synix provenance is retrospective: it tracks which inputs and prompts
68+
produced each artifact. However, it cannot answer forward-looking
69+
questions such as:
70+
71+
> "If I change this transcript, what downstream artifacts would be affected?"
72+
73+
Answering this requires re-running `synix plan`.
74+
75+
This is a known limitation of the content-addressed caching model.
