260614 — Jupyter Notebooks deep dive
Date: 2026-06-14 · Source: SHARD-WP-0004 T3
What this is
A deep dive into Jupyter Notebooks: the .ipynb JSON document (ordered cells:
markdown / code+outputs / raw), kernels, embedded computed outputs (MIME bundles),
and execution-count provenance. The dominant modern computational document and the
concrete case where the derived output is captured and stored inside the source with
real-but-fragile provenance.
Why it matters
- Tests the T1 replication- vs derivation-projection split on the dominant real artifact and adds the wrinkle that outputs are stored back inside the source — the source/ projection line runs through the document.
- The page model (T12) must carry a notebook shape: ordered cells with code cells owning embedded computed outputs that have weak execution provenance (run order, environment not captured).
- Non-Markdown + lossy translation (T15): JSON+MIME bundles; nbconvert→Markdown is lossy and directional. JSON diffs are noisy → Jupytext text-pairing / nbdime (T13).
Yield
- UC-84 (new): attach/project a computational notebook preserving cell structure + embedded outputs, surfacing outputs as snapshots with weak execution provenance; re-execution capability-gated, default = present snapshot + static render.
- Enrich UC-54, UC-55, UC-59, UC-35; links UC-32, UC-83, UC-79.
